There's plenty of worse puns on this wiki! --Terrocon Blot 01:25, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

I think he's actually an animal like Booster. I just bought him today, and not only are his proportions clearly ape like, he's HALF as tall as Meantime. Then again, Meantime's a pretty tall basic. --Terrocon Blot 17:46, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

When a Transformer's an animal, it's usually pretty pronounced a la, well, every animal G1 or later Transformer ever. This guy's just like Crumplezone (Cybertron) and a member in the weird proportions club.--MCRG 04:34, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

My strong suspicion is that he was originally intended to be bigger. That would make more sense for the altmode and put his robot mode at a scale more similar to his fellow RGRs. Then they realized they needed to cost him down or something. This is just my theory, as we're out of idears now. -LV 05:56, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, dad? --Sntint 07:22, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I've definitely had the same size thought, as it explains why he's such a damn tiny game controller. I figure a larger version might've had problems with the packaging space or something. I'd also like to go on the record as wanting him used as Classics Beastbox by the Fan Club at some point, since it's as close as I'll ever get.--MCRG 04:36, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

With the bird and Squwaktalk? (Someone did a photo shoot of these two together on their blog, and it makes it REEEALY obvious High Score 100 is a monkey.) -Derik 07:43, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

He's only as much a monkey as Crumplezone. Hell, he's less of a monkey than Crumplezone, since High Score has fairly normal robot head, as opposed to Crumplezone's Underbite of Doom.--MCRG 08:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Crumplezone's head to me still comes across as less...animalistic. Yes, Highscore has as much detail..but it's spread around differently. His head has "ear" like spots at the corner. His face is a simple visor and mouthplate combo. His mouthplate has a possible NOSTRIL/NOSE sculpted into it. Coupled with the fact that unlike Crumplezone, High Score is forever posed into a squatting position due to his unusual ankles and knee curve, he just screams "ape" to me more than the guy who was remolded into an ape. --Terrocon Blot 09:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I think his bio gets a little too specific in regards to what exactly High Score is capable of. His tech spec doesn't specify any specific gaming genre, yes, so the extrapolation *is* valid, but I think we should just not state it at all.

Also, for my two cents, I can see why people say he's primate-ish, but I think he's just crouching permanently. I can't recall EVERY primate, so maybe this is an inaccurate arguement, but chimpanzees and gorillas at least don't bend their knees when they stand quadropedally. They just have very short rear legs.

High Score, I think, is just crouching into a "ready on-guard" stance, similar to how a boxer or Greco-Roman wrestler stands before actually engaging the opponent. For example. --Sntint 14:28, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I think he looks more like a PS3 Boomerang (image) than an XBox controller (as mentioned in the article), mainly due to the control sticks both being in the same spot as the PS3's, unlike XBox's asymmetrical design. -King Starscream 22:22, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
