Who is the leader of the coneheads?

Postby Wreckage42 » Sun Aug 08, 2010 9:25 pm

Ok, so today I got my first conehead/seeker generations toy(thrust) :grin: . So I started to do re4search on them, and it got me to thinking. Is there a laeder of the coneheads. Or are they led by starsceam aswell. If they have a leader(besides megatron), who is it? :???:

Their Commander is Starscream.

As the coneheads are seekers, they fall under his control as Decepticon Air Commander.

I agree with Editor that Starscream is their commander. If Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust were left alone to fend for themselves though, I'd think Thrust would rise to the occasion. Ramjet, however, has kind of risen to star status over the past few years though so he might be a contender. Dirge, most definitely, would just follow in my opinion.

In my opinion if left without Starscream to command, Thrust would try to lead but would quickly abdicate when Ramjet(whom I'm using his IDW Spotlight personality as a basis) bully'ed him. Dirge as Seibertron said would just follow along.

That's strange, I'd always viewed the Coneheads as a totally separate unit from the Seekers, possibly even serving a different function. Thrust was used as a messenger once or twice if I remember correctly, as well as for reconnaissance. Since they never really interacted with Starscream at all as a unit, I'd always assumed they were just separate airborne fighters. In my fan fic, though, I've decided who their master is... :grin:

Yeah Starscream as the commander, but I'd vote for Thrust, for the coneheads as well.

Senator Ratbat,

I have always thought the same thing. Even though it is a product of events related to Earth and the Ark, it seems that there have always been two distinct divisions within the Decepticon 'Air Force': The 'Seekers' under the command of Starscream on Earth and the 'Coneheads' under 'Thrust' on Cybertron. Especially within the various comic story-arcs, it seems that there is little interaction between characters such as Thundercracker, Skywarp, Dirge, or Thrust -- the first two have there own agenda/mission similarly to the last two...

Where do Dreadwind and Darkwing fit into the Decepticon 'Air Force'? Are they lone agents without any particular affiliation beyond being Powermasters?

Coincidence but Ramjet has the same decal decos as Starscream, and the aforementioned "Seeker" tended to be the leader in the"Dinobot Island" episode.
