The former Decepticon Headmaster Juniors cross over to the Legends World, with a mysterious robot following.
Synopsis
[edit]In 2021, the Autobot Second Army has activated the transtector factory in G Nebula 89, and though they're routing all their energy into the factory's operations and thus run the risk of being unable to defend it, Grand Maximus insists that they must do their part of the plan to resurrect Optimus Prime on Cybertron. His own contribution is to implement the "Super Convoy Project", a plan to recreate the transtector that was meant for Prime but turned into Ginrai, but first he must find shelter for Cancer, Bullhorn, Wilder, and Clouder, who've smuggled themselves into the base in search of new transtectors following their final battle.
With the base under siege by Overlord's troops and the space bridge network broken, Grand believes the only place where the humans can be safe is in the Legends World, and coordinates the opening of a portal with Fortress (who is less than enthused to receive the humans, but relents when his brother calls him out on getting too used to a peaceful life). Arriving in the Legends World, the former Headmaster Juniors are reunited with their Autobot counterparts, Minerva, Cab, and Shūta, who explain that they joined Fortress's crew in search of them. As an apology for making them worry, Bullhorn presents them with new Headmaster-Braces that let them turn into Headmasters again. At that moment, Shockwave appears in the Legends World in search of Megatron, and marks Cancer as imperative to his plan...

Notes
[edit]- The Autobots of the G Nebula are using a computer seen in "Planet Micro - The Mysterious Warrior", the episode that first showed the Masterforce Autobots being stationed there.
- The efforts to resurrect Optimus Prime were seen in the "Sky Reign Chapter" of the concurrently published United Warriors comics, which also take place in 2021.
- Ginrai's transtector being intended for Optimus Prime was revealed in "Shūta and Grand's Masterforce Super-Secrets!".
- The space bridge network was destroyed in The Headmasters episode "Daniel Faces His Biggest Crisis Ever!!".
- Tying in with his Legends toy, Shockwave is named as such in this story despite previously being called "Laserwave" in the Japanese G1 continuity. A similar thing happened with Jetfire in the Japanese continuity, but this story offers no such similar explanation for Shockwave's name change. "LG43 Trypticon" would eventually confirm that "Laserwave" had changed his name to "Shockwave".
