"Don't let that classic minifig smile fool you--Blacktron I was the first

utopia of Futuron upside down. And they did it in matchless style."
While I'm making suggestions, if it's not too much trouble, you may want to
retake the picture of him with the visor down. Lighting may be harder, but
the higher coefficient of EVIL I think would be worth it. >;)
