One member of the Oktober Guard, under the callsign "Oktober Guard One", was flying a top secret jet and was forced to eject when it was attacked and captured by a submarine. The Soviet government initially blamed the incident on the United States of America, bringing tensions between the two superpowers to their highest point since the Cuban Missile Crisis. However, the jet had in fact been stolen by renowned trophy hunter Lord Chumley, which was later revealed by Optimus Prime. Prime Target
Transformers vs. G.I. Joe
The Oktober Guard ambushed G.I. Joe's "non-human personnel" unit U.S.7 when they were on a supply run to the metal planet of Cybertron as it drew closer to Earth. Boarding chutes in their spaceship bored their way into U.S.7's craft, and a battle broke out between the two groups, but it lasted only a few moments before the gigantic Fortress Maximus reached up from the surface of Cybertron, grabbed the ship, and dumped all the guardsmen and Joe animals down his throat. Form Follows Function
After Earth was seemingly destroyed in a collision with Cybertron, the Oktober Guard tried to claim the robot world as "New Transylvania". The Joes snuck off while the Decepticons were busy squishing the Guard. Earth: R.I.P. With their claim denied, the Oktober Guard instead settled for making Pluto their New Transylvania in the space age that followed the war. The War Never Ends
