"What an absolute shower!"

Highbrow used to be the head of Cybertron Intelligence, and as such, worked on many a secret Autobot project. Wonder where he is these days?

"The thells thea thells by the thea thore.....Drat!"

Millions of years ago, Highbrow and Mainframe worked on the comatose Arcee, trying to recall the sensitive data she had been carrying that was feared lost after her unfortunate encounter with Lockdown. When they called in Ratchet to help, the medic triggered a hidden failsafe that transferred the data to his memory banks. Realizing what had occurred, Highbrow led Ratchet and Ultra Magnus to the room containing Project Omega, explaining that the retrieved data was the final step in completing the Autobots' newest weapon, Omega Supreme. TransWarped

Highbrow mysteriously vanished without a trace after the Great War. In his absence, his post was filled by Longarm Prime. How convenient!

Notes

• Highbrow appears to be patterned after British actor Terry-Thomas. He is mustachioed, he shares the actor's distinctive gap between his front teeth, and he's jolly well got a delightful caddish British accent, eh wot?
