When Armada Megatron's toy obsession threatens the safety of the Legends Universe, Armada Starscream takes matters into his own hands.
Synopsis
Having tired of collecting mere Mini-Cons, Armada Megatron has moved on to stealing all kinds of large and rare Transformers toys from the people of the Legends Universe. As he's announcing his evil plot, he is attacked by Armada Starscream, who asks him to give up on his ambitions, explaining that the spiritual energy generated by his desire only serves to power up the Zamojin who created this world. Megatron refuses to stray from his chosen path or give up his collection, instead accusing Starscream of betraying him, and the two do battle. Suddenly, Starscream's worst fear comes to pass: everyone's spirit energy has strengthened the Zamojin enough to restore Windblade's original purpose as a tool for destroying the Legends Universe!
Refusing to let this happen, Starscream readies his Null Laser Cannons in an attempt to destroy Windblade. Armada Megatron recognizes the situation, explaining that Starscream was once killed channeling all his energy into this same attack while fighting a great evil in their previous dimension, so if he goes through with it, both he and Windblade will die. Fortunately Alpha Trion has a solution, using his ultra-drill to summon someone close to Starscream from his home universe—Alexis. The sight of the human girl causes Starscream's memories to resurface, and he calms down and accepts her offer to return home with her. Sick and tired of the Legends Universe, Armada Megatron follows suit through the portal, leaving his stolen toys behind. With Windblade back to normal and the toys returned to their rightful owners, everyone's happy... until G1 Megatron asks for the original owner of Armada Megatron's ultra-rare Unicron of Light, and everyone present tries to claim it.
