'''A fake message from space allows the Decepticons to capture the Autobot headquarters.'''

==Synopsis==

Millions of years ago, the Autobots lived on a mechanical planet called Cybertron with war-like robots called Decepticons. They fought many battles. In one space battle, above a planet called Earth, the Decepticon ship rammed the Autobot ship and both crash landed. The ships remained trapped inside a volcano for eons until an eruption pushed the ships to the surface. The Autobot ship, The Ark, repaired the Autobots so that they could change into things suitable for their new planet. But by mistake, the computer also fixed the Decepticons.

On a rainy day, the Autobots are stuck inside and continue their repairs on thsr ship, including the space communicator that will allow them to get help from any space ship near Earth. Overhearing Ratchet describe this device, Ravage reports back to Megatron who plans to send them a fake message to lure the Autobots way from camp.

When the rain stops the Autobots patrol the area to ensure the Decepticons have not caused any trouble, leaving Bumblebee behind to mind the camp. Only a few minutes after they leave the Decepticon's fake message comes through and Bumblebee falls for it. After waiting for a while Bumblebee realises it was a trick and discovers the Decepticons have invaded it. He intercepts the Autobots and explains what has happened. Optimus Prime manages to pull the same trick on the Decepticons who flee a pending 'Martian invasion' into an Autobot ambush and are forced to retreat.

==Quotes==
"Special resuce mission arriving from Cybertron. Will land near volcano. Please meet us at volcano area."
:—The Decepticon's fake Message from Outer Space.

"Prepare for a Martian invasion. We are going to blow up your camp in five minutes!"
:—The Autobot's fake Message from Outer Space.

==Notes==

* The origin recap is unusual in that it depicts the Decepticon ship crashing with the Autobot ship into the volcano.
* In the flashback to Cybertron, the Decepticons are shown with their Earth modes.
* Several pages in this book are recreations of pages from the [[Marvel Books#Coloring Books|1984 coloring books]]. This includes a page of Huffer holding two seekers that appeared in [[Decepticon Patrol]], however Huffer is now drawn to his cartoon model. Brawn however is drawn like his toy on one page that recreates a page from [[The Deadly Fuel Shortage]], despite being seen in his cartoon on the previous page.
* Bumblebee has the square head look.
* Starscream and Thundercracker's tongues stick out while Huffer holds them.

'''When Springer is mind-controlled, the Autobots must capture Bombshell in order to free him.'''

==Synopsis==
Earth looks peaceful from space, but the Autobots and Decepticons are fighting to see who will rule the planet: good or evil.

From high above in the sky, a trio of Decepticons spy on a group of Autobots racing each other. Hot Rod is distracted when he catches sight of them and crashes into a tree. Springer rushes over to check on the injured Autobot and, although he had been ordered to observe only, Bombshell takes the opportunity to shoot him with a cerebro shell.

The Autobots return to their city and soon Springer starts to show peculiar behaviour, jumping up and down, transforming back and forth, unable to speak and firing his weapons. Ultra Magnus realises what has happened and the Autobots head off to capture Bombshell.

At the Decepticon headquarters Bombshell boasts about what he did, but Galvatron beats him for disobeying his orders. The Autobots are outside but, finding that the Decepticons have human slaves, Ultra Magnus commands that freeing the humans must come first. As the opposing forces battle, Wreck-Gar sets first to the Decepticon's fuel and the Decepticons flee into the hills.

While the other Autobots ensure the humans are safe, Bumblebee, Wreck-Gar and Swoop pursue Bombshell. Waiting until nightfall they sneak into base and trap him in a giant super-strong trash bag. Bombshell's cry of alarm alerts the Decepticons. Swoop blasts them away and then blasts a hole in the cliff through which the Autobots escape.

Back at the Autobot city, Bombshell is force to remove the shell and Springer is back to normal. As the Autobots celebrate, Bombshell makes a quick escape.

==Quotes==
"Let's have a race to see which Autobot is the fastest."
:—'''Blurr''' just wants to show off

"For fast, fast, fast, relief, blast a Decepticon!"
:—'''Wreck-Gar'''

"The Decepticons have taken some earthlings as captives. They are forcing the earth creatures to work for them."
:—'''Ultra Magnus'''

"Remove your shell or die."
:—'''Kup''' plays bad cop.

'''Galvatron leads the Decepticons in a quest for revenge.'''

==Synopsis==
After viewing the damaged sustained by Decepticons during a fierce battle with the Autobots, Galvatron vows they will pay dearly. Two days later a giant explosion rocks the Autobot city called Metroplex. The Autobots hurry out to investigate and find Dirge attacking the water tower trying to flood the city. Swoop stops Dirge by dropping a missile on him. This makes Galvatron even angrier and he instructs Bonecrusher to destroy a nearby human bridge. Springer blasts the Construction and holds up the damaged bridge to save the humans. Galvaton realises the Decepticons have been defeated and they retreat once more.

==Quotes==
"I'll show you, Autobots! You dare not defy Galvatron!"
:—'''Galvatron'''

"You young whippersnappers don't appreciate a real battle. Now in the good old days back on Cybertron..."

"Not now Kup. We're too tired for the good old days."
:—'''Sunstreaker''' steals Hot Rod's lines

==Notes==
* Some of the stickers depict a complete character rather than the more common section of a character.
* A Ramjet sticker shows him with white wings.
* Shown from behind Hot Rod's back is drawn identical to his front.
* While most characters are mostly based on the cartoon models, Beachcomber is drawn to match the toy.
* Galvatron is grey on the cover, but each sticker features him with the purple colour used in the cartoon.
* Blurr is shown shooting a laser from the crest on his head.

{{disambig2|the franchise|the episode of ''Cybertron''|United}}

'''''Transformers United''''' (トランスフォーマーユナイテッド) is a Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] toyline comprising [[redeco]]s from [[Hasbro]]'s ''[[Classics (2006)|Classics]]'', [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'']], and ''[[Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toylines. Much like TakaraTomy's release of the ''[[Transformers Animated (toyline)|Transformers Animated]]'' toyline, some of these Japanese versions have glossy metallic paint jobs. As a continuation of a marketing strategy introduced during the [[Movie (toyline)|2007 live-action movie toyline]], most of the characters retain their American names.

*An extended toy commercial giving descriptions of all the first-wave characters.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EejvhYAGCzE ''United'' toy commercial]</ref> Though light on continuity, it does show the ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (franchise)|War-for-Cybertron]]''-based toys [[trans-scan]]ning into [[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation-1]]-based modern [[Earth]] forms, a connection not made explicit in any other ''United'' fiction.

'''Bumblebee proves his worth when his telescopic vision warns the Autobots of a Decepticon surprise attack!'''

==Synopsis==
On a quiet day at the Autobot camp, Bumblebee has nothing to do. He tries to help Optimus Prime with repairs but Prime tells him the work is too hard for him. He offers to helps Gears take stock of gasoline but is unable to reach the high barrels. He tries to join in with Bluestreak and Sideswipe who are racing to check their speeds, but they make fun of him for being slow. Upset he drives off into the nearby mountains, contemplating that he belongs in a junkyard.

Meanwhile the Decepticons have a new invention: a jet engine silencer that will enable them to attack by surprise. Megatron orders the Decepticons to transform and attack.

Sitting on the edge of a tall cliff, Bumblebee spots the approaching Decepticons with his telescopic vision. He rushes back to camp shouting his warning, but Prowl dismisses him. If the Decepticons were coming, Prime argues, they'd be able to hear the jets. Optimus Prime backs up Bumblebee, and orders the Autobots to break camp and move 20 miles south. Mirage stays put to creats a mirage that the camp is still there.

The Decepticons attack, exhausting their firepower. Megatron starts to wonder why the Autobots are not fighting back, and why their bombs aren't causing any damage. When the Decepticons move in for a closer look the Autobots appear from the cover of bushes and fight them off. The Autobots are grateful for Bumblebee's warning and Optimus Prime commends him for his courage.

==Quotes==
"Decepticons attacking! Decepticons attacking"
:—'''Bumblebee''' does his best Chicken Little impression

"Why don't they fight back? And why aren't our bombs causing any damage?"
:—'''Megatron''' displays keen battlefield awareness

"We would have been destroyed without you, Bumblebee. You may be small in size, but you're big in courage. And that makes you as big as any Autobot here."
:—'''Optimus Prime'''

==Notes==
* Bumblebee, feeling useless for being small, driving off into the mountains and sitting on a cliff-top feeling sorry for himself, is similar to the start of the Marvel Comic [[Plight of the Bumblebee!]]
* Bumblebee is drawn with the same model with the square head that appears in [[Forest Rescue Mission]]. The other characters have their cartoon models, although, Megatron is based on the early rounded head version.
* Some generic Autobots are drawn, from behind looking like the toys of Prowl/Bluestreak and Sideswipe.
* [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] appears on the cover only.
* Mirage creates his illusions with waves of light coming from his eyes.
* The Autobot camp featured here is low tech, with several army-base looking buildings.
* The Autobots use gasoline as their fuel.
* An Autobot who looks like [[Rumble (G1)|Rumble]]/[[Frenzy (G1)|Frenzy]] is seen from firing on the Decepticons beside Optimus Prime and Hound.
* Similar to [[The Autobot Smasher!]], the back cover features a cut-out standee of Bumblebee, but in a very static pose and with the square head.
* Bumblebee doesn't actually have a dangerous mission.

He tries to join in with Bluestreak and Sideswipe who are racing to check their speeds, but they make fun of him for being slow and upset he drives off into the nearby mountains, contemplating that he belongs in a junkyard.

Meanwhile the Decepticons have a new invention: a jet engine silencer that will enable them to attack by surprise. Megatron orders the Decepticons to transform and attack.

Sitting on the edge of a tall cliff, Bumblebee spots the approaching Decepticons with his telescopic vision. He rushes back to camp shouting his warning, but Prowl dismisses him. If they were coming they'd hear the jets coming. Optimus Prime backs up Bumblebee, and orders the Autobots to break camp and move 20 miles south. Mirage stays put to creats a mirage that the camp is still there.

The Decepticons attack, exhausting their firepower. Megatron starts to wonder why the Autobots are not fighting back, and why their bombs aren't causing any damage. When the Decepticons move in for a closer look the Autobots appear and fight them off. The Autobots are greatful for Bumblebee's warning and Optimus Prime commends him for his courage.
