[edit]Scourge and the Sweeps, former enforcers of Galvatron, have been reduced to janitors in the Legends World. One day they're approached by Terrorsaur, manager of Decepticon Tera-Kura Co.'s assembly lines, who offers to mass-produce new bodies for them in exchange for a favor: kidnapping Alpha Trion.
