	After leaving his home reality aboard a [[Solarbot's ship\|personal spaceship]], Solarbot crash-landed on the Earth's moon, where he encountered the evil Autobots [[Blaster (SG)\|Blaster]] and [[Rewind (SG)\|Rewind]]. Believing them to be allies, Solarbot mimicked Rewind's form to speak with the pair on better terms. But Blaster had little interest in Solarbot's story, and only feigned concern for his plight to gain passage in his ship towards the Earth. After reaching their destination, Blaster revealed his true nature by tracking down the heroic [[Soundwave (SG)\|Sir Soundwave]] and attacking him while he was trying to repair Earth's ravaged electronics network. To stop him from interfering in the battle, Blaster stuffed Solarbot into his chest compartment, only to be surprised that he had gained an enormous boost of power in doing so. But Solarbot burned his way out of Blaster in due course, forcing the Autobot to retreat. He then joined up with Sir Soundwave, who more sincerely offered assistance to the little 'bot. {{storylink\|Solar Requiem}}		After leaving his home reality aboard a [[Solarbot's ship\|personal spaceship]], Solarbot crash-landed on the Earth's moon, where he encountered the evil Autobots [[Blaster (SG)\|Blaster]] and [[Rewind (SG)\|Rewind]].

	After a confrontation against some enemy 'bots, during which he burst out of Sir Soundwave's chest dock, Solarbot asked the larger 'bot to link up with him, in order to access some of Soundwave's stored data. After finding the information he needed, Solarbot told Soundwave he was searching for a group of six 'bots with "[[GoBot\|organic implants]]" instead of [[Spark#Ember\|embers]]. {{storylink\|Sunrise}}		After a confrontation against some enemy 'bots, during which he burst out of Sir Soundwave's chest dock, Solarbot asked the larger 'bot to link up with him in order to access some of Soundwave's stored data.

	Solarbot found those he sought on the displaced Earth of the [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon\|Classicsverse]]. He met with [[Small Foot]] in the dead of night, and opened up a telepathic communication with her, showing how his people faced a similar peril to the one ~~which~~ threatened Gobotron. Solarbot then vanished, leaving Small Foot to wonder if the encounter was merely a dream. Later, when [[Stepper (SG)\|Stepper]] managed to sneak up on the group and prepared to kill them all, Solarbot interfered, shielding the GoBots from the evil Autobots' fire, and giving them the opening necessary to overpower their adversary. {{storylink\|High Noon (SG)\|High Noon}}		Solarbot found those he sought on the displaced Earth of the [[Primax 207.0 Epsilon\|Classicsverse]].
