So ultra magnus who was an elite guardsmen never commanded the wreckers, at least in the aligned continuity?

I think I see what's going on here. The bolded part clears this up. I was under the impression you were asking why one couldn't be member of both at the same time, rather than at different times.njb902 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I wasn't referring to the Aligned Continuity versions.njb902 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The two groups don't fight together.

Nice sidestep. So in whatever continuity you are talking about no autobot has ever served with both the wreckers and the elite guard at different times , and might have picked up both unit badges?

If one wanted to leave one group and join up with the other, then by all means, that's fine. Though, I'd imagine they'd swap out the former team's insignia for the new one's, to illustrate their new allegiance (since ex-members haven't been shown that often to keep their old ones when joining a new group).
Well, at first, I was thinking of Wings Universe (in which the Elite Guard answered to Magnum, who was a character whose entire life and death predated the existence of Ultra Magnus) since this is Fun Pub and its their main Elite Guard universe.njb902 wrote:Btw what continuity are you talking about, and what continuity does this figure belong to?

Wings Universe Ironfist was a member of the Elite Guard, though.Jack Hallows wrote:i know "fisitron" was the anagram of idw's ironfist. and that dude was not part of the elite guard. he was a primal vanguard enthusiast though.

It was based off Alternators Swindle's head.gothsaurus wrote:Also, the head sculpt didn't have the G1 feel. Wasn't square enough and was missing the nose piece coming down from the top - both of which I feel define Swindle's head. It instead looked too bucket-head-y.

Lol, i just saw this & i beg to differ. your standard operating procedures can and will keep your aft alive when the slag hits the rotors. although certain situations may call for some unorthodox tactics, a warfighter should never abandon their battle principals just because they fear for their lives. that's the quickest was to lose it. or worse, cause a buddy to lose theirs cuz someone went loose cannon. but to each his own i guess. our combat experience in country may have differed greatly. as long as you came back with life and limb intact it ain't my place to hate on how you did it. but don't go puttin those ideas in the youths heads lol.Mindmaster wrote:As an aspiring Marine:
go air force, bro. trust me. it's not worth the headache. plus you'd get to choose if/when you deploy. and it's only like 3-4 months. as opposed to 6-7 months for marines and upwards to a year for soldiers. airmen have it made in country.
ok, corporal's corner has concluded.
back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Bravo for Ironfist. Stick closely to the G1 colors and we have a winner. (I'm against the washed out comic colors. I think it would be a flop, like the pastel iGear minibots wave.)
