	Though his plan ended with his defeat, Devil Z swears not to let the same thing happen again and sends the Decepticon [[Headmaster (technology)\|Headmasters]] to destroy the trailer, only for it to regenerate immediately. This confirms to him that it's a real Godmaster body, but before he can claim it for himself instead, [[Ginrai (human)\|Ginrai]] shows up, recognizing it as his. Finding a pair of [[Master-Brace]]s in a compartment just like last time, he transforms the trailer into Super Ginrai, this time by forming the robot's head. Devil Z orders the Headmasters to destroy Ginrai, powering them up with [[Devil Power]] when they are initially outclassed by their opponent's mastery of [[Chōkon Power]]. As an overpowered Ginrai is brought to his knees, he is contacted by the computer of the G Nebula factory where the transtector was created, which tells him his new body contains a secret beyond Headmaster and Godmaster technology: it is also a [[Getmaster]]! This technology is activated if a Master Warrior is placed in its chest cavity, further powering up Ginrai and making him a [[Triplemaster]].

	Super Ginrai initiates a Get On, but instead of a Master Warrior he ends up sucking a passing-by [[Rattrap (BW)\|Rattrap]] into his chest. This turns out to be a blessing in disguise as the rat is emitting a new form of Chōkon Power, [[Beast Power\|Jūchōkon]]! Despite his power up, the Headmasters blow a hole in him with their [[Trio Formation]] Devil Attack, but his apparent defeat is actually his transformation into a base mode. Ginrai and Rattrap let loose with a God Fire Base Attack barrage that sends the Headmasters and Devil Z fleeing, and the Autobot Headmaster Juniors celebrate, revealing that they [[10.2 ultra-drill\|summoned]] Ginrai here after seeing the transtector appear. He intends to stick around the Legends World until Devil Z is defeated, but finds to his annoyance that all the locals keep referring to him as "[[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Optimus Prime]]".

[[Weirdwolf (G1)\|Weirdwolf]] is angry with Mindwipe for resurrecting the evil entity, reminding him that Devil Z had already caused them trouble previously by stealing the body of their leader, [[Scorponok (G1)\|BlackZarak]]. As "Master Shareholder" Devil Z begins working the Decepticons to the bone, however, he sees on the news that the meteor has turned into a familiar trailer.

	The characters who find the transtectors are the [[Masterforce Warrior]]s, Japanese-exclusive recolours of the three Autobot Powermaster/Godmaster engines, who were sold separately as new characters without transtectors of their own. Before now, it was logical to believe these characters were humans (as all Godmasters were), and artwork of the trio used on the [[Transformers Tapestry]] was definitely drawn to depict them as such, but their appearance here, thousands of years ago, recasts them as tiny Transformers from the planet [[Master (planet)\|Master]].		*The characters who find the transtectors are the [[Masterforce Warrior]]s, Japanese-exclusive recolours of the three Autobot Powermaster/Godmaster engines, who were sold separately as new characters without transtectors of their own.

At [[Tera-Kura Co.\|Decepticon Co.]], [[Devil Z]] reveals that not only is he still alive, he's used his and [[Mindwipe (G1)\|Mindwipe]]'s brainwashing powers together to buy up all the company's stocks! [[Weirdwolf (G1)\|Weirdwolf]] is angry with Mindwipe for resurrecting the evil entity, reminding him that Devil Z had already caused them trouble previously by stealing the body of their leader, [[Scorponok (G1)\|BlackZarak]]. As "Master Shareholder" Devil Z begins working the Decepticons to the bone, however, he sees on the news that the meteor has turned into a familiar trailer. He recalls the [[Godmaster (lifeform)\|Godmasters]], living but soulless bodies discovered in the [[G Nebula 89\|G Nebula]] long ago by warriors from [[Master (planet)\|Master]]. Before they could learn to combine with the bodies, Devil Z stole them away to [[Earth]], where he hoped to use the energy from [[human]] souls to turn the Godmasters into his loyal troops.

	Though his plan ended with his defeat, Devil Z swears not to let the same thing happen again and sends the Decepticon [[Headmaster (technology)\|Headmasters]] to destroy the trailer, only for it to regenerate immediately. This confirms to him that it's a real Godmaster body, but before he can claim it for himself instead, [[Ginrai (human)\|Ginrai]] shows up, recognizing it as his. Finding a pair of [[Master-Brace]]s in a compartment just like last time, he transforms the trailer into Super Ginrai, this time by forming the robot's head. Devil Z orders the Headmasters to destroy Ginrai, powering them up with [[Devil Power]] when they are initially outclassed by their opponent's mastery of [[Chōkon Power]]. As an overpowered Ginrai is brought to his knees, he is contacted by the computer of the G Nebula factory where the transtector was created, which tells him his new body contains a secret beyond Headmaster and Godmaster technology: it is also a [[Getmaster]]! This technology is activated if a Master Warrior is placed in its chest cavity, further powering up Ginrai and making him a [[Triplemaster]].
