Trivia

Rise of Safeguard

• The idea of two twin robots that can use fire and ice to attack and can also combine symmetrically into a larger form isn't new to Takara. In The King of Braves GaoGaiGar, the last of the Brave series, Hyoryu and Enryu fit this description too. Later in the series, other robots with symmetrical combinations are introduced, making a total of three sets of twin robots (four brothers and two sisters) that usually combine into Chôryujin (fire and ice), GekiRyuJin (thunder and wind), and TenRyuJin (light and darkness). Even later, in fact, two of the pairs cross-combine, and one of the products is GouRyuJin, a fire/wind robot with more power than either of the original combinations. Hmm... This marks the second time an element from Gaogaigar is used in a Transformers series. Also, Ultra Raker from Brave Exkaiser used this combination style first.

• Why the rather more obvious name "Firestorm" for this combiner was never used in favor of the seemingly less suited (and certainly less cool) "Safeguard" is an enduring mystery.

• Safeguard is the only combiner with an alt mode in fiction so far.

• Perceptor's dialogue in the Rise of Safeguard origin comic at least implies that Safeguard is the true form of the twins, saying that the two are split from a single protoform.

• Safeguard is the result of an experiment from Starscream's specs. The wings on his back form the shape of an X, sounds like a certain other experiment based on Starscream.
