Zebres is an Autobot Headmaster from the Robotmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Presumably not colonized by advanced bird aliens.

Zebres (ゼブレス Zeburesu) forms the head to the colossal Autobot Base. His own head is formed by the smaller Master.

Robotmasters

  • Cybertron Base (Contest prize, 2004)
Robotmasters Zebres came only with Cybertron Base ("Autobot Base"), who was First Prize in a Robotmasters contest where only 10 were awarded. As Cybertron Base is completely identical to the retail-release Car Robots Brave Maximus toy, Zebres is identical to the Brave robot. A redeco of Generation 1 Cerebros, he transforms from a robot to a "communications tower" for Cybertron Base's base modes, and forms the head for the giant robot. He doesn't need Master, who forms Zebres's head, to combine with Base.
This mold was also used to make Grand.

Notes

  • "Zebres" (ゼブレス Zeburesu) appears to be a modification of "Cerebros" (セレブロス Sereburosu).
  • Master and Zebres were inexplicably introduced in 2004 as inexplicable new names for the Plasma and Brave toys. It would not be until the Legends manga in 2017 that any explanation was given for their existence, or even that the names represented separate characters.
