Description
There were a few things about the old design [link] that just didn't work for me, so I just had to fix it.Hightower has never been much of a team player. Because of this, it should come as no surprise that his fellow Constructicons would rip him apart to repair Megatron without so much as batting an optic. Barely clinging to life, he was dragged to the surface, and under the supervision of Decepticon medic Scalpel, engaged an emergency trans-scan, merging what remained of his body with a human construction vehicle. In this makeshift body Hightower cannot transform without experiencing intense pain, becoming both a hinderance in battle, and as a component of the Constructicon's combined form of Devastator.
Not featured in the movie, and barely featured in the toyline
(one measly little legends scale figure of nonspecific build [link] )

Actually, Hightower's Legends toy might have been based on some concept art displayed in Sydney, Australia: [link]

The official ROTF concept art for him was recently posted by the artist behind it, but I still think your design is better!

1-This One Dosen't Have Those Chicken Theathers At The Ass.
2-The Crane Is Yellow Instead Of Black.
3-His Hands Are Yellow Instead Of Black.
4-There Are Two Thin Wires Instead Of A Big Wire That Looks Like Elastic.
5-You've Added A Hook Along With The Claw.
6-The Upper Knea Used To Have A Brown Spot, Now It's Gone.
7-That Rectangular Thing Ontop Of Him Has 2 Wholes Instead Of 3. And It's Shorter!

Very good. But you missed that the treads continue up the rest of his leg, instead of ending at the knee. But we have some lovely parting gifts...

Poor guy, sounds like the decepticons wouldn't keep him around if they couldn't use him.
*eyes the autobots*
Then again, the good guys aren't very compassionate either...
That leaves one faction to care for Hightower. The most powerful force in the universe.
The Fangirls!

What's The difference Between This One And The Old One?

They're really only small differences, not too obvious unless you compare them side to side.

I like this one a lot, but I prefer the other one slightly more.
Your Hightower design is a revolution though! For me, it's how I now envision movie Hightower to be.
