    So this is how the Wraiths took over that Council ship.

    Also, I\'m still hoping we get to see who Magnus is

    Steve the Vehicon? What are you doing here?

    Also I\'m guessing that this is a different Magnus than the present day Magnus, one of the lesser ones.

    I'm pretty sure it's still Minimus. This story is only 200 years in the past.

    Hmm... I don't know. He seems a lot more gung ho about taking out Decepticons than Minimus ever did. "ANNIHILATE THEM!" certainly doesn't sound like something he'd say.

    Since Minimus CAN change after boarding Lost Light, he may have already changed.

    Yeah, I thought that seemed a little over zealous for Minimus, but this is war-time (and only about 200 years ago), and perhaps he has a zero tolerance policy on attacks on GC ships or some such?

    While the text seems different from his latest portrayal, it still could be him.

    Spotlight ultra Magnus was not written as the recent UM, there was no plans back then of the minimus +armor.

    And I recall tyrest saying his latest adventures have softened him(or something similar)

    It is Minimus. Tyrest said he\'s worn the armor the longest out of anyone ever and there\'s only been a handful of bearers to wear the armor. Minus has worn it for thousands possibly even over a million years.

    Oh hey a Jet Vehicon!
    And I thought that Skyblast was the Energon guy but it's actually the shuttle Minicon from the Requiem Blaster.

    Same. My first thought when I saw the name was the Omnicon until I saw the shoulders and noticed it's the minicon. It's nice to see some minicons get some love

    I meant as is wearing the armor at the time of this engagement on account of the fact that his behavior is nowhere that of regular Minimus, even before the end of the war

    Still Minimus. He's the longest serving Ultra Magnus out of a total of six ever named (including the original) of a war that lasted millions of years. You think he wasn't around two-hundred of them ago? It's impossible only unless they tended to get killed every couple of decades at most and there's tens of thousands of others who served in the suit and have been completely forgotten about. Which is also, at this point, just as unlikely.

    You're basing your entire assumption of it being someone else off a couple lines a dialogue. Minimus was also the wearer during the ongoing and he rolled into rodimus's camp guns blazing once he saw swindle. Sure that was before the whole minimus thing but it was still him with the power of retcon. It's a 200 year gap. Characters attitudes change. Before joining the lost light Magnus was an extremely different character. Joining the crew changed his attitude and outlook.

    This is a race always changing. This bumblebee is a completely different bumblebee that was leader of the autobots. Thundercracker is completely different than who he was 5 years ago.
