Rattrap and his pals go to Transformers Celebration 2014.

Synopsis

Rattrap, Rhinox, Silverbolt and Tigatron visit the Transformers Celebration 2014, an event taking place on May 16 in anticipation of Age of Extinction. Rhinox cries tears of nostalgia over a trailer that transforms to reveal an Optimus Prime bust that speaks in Tesshō Genda's voice, while Silverbolt drools over a Team Mach race queen who is there to promote a collaboration between Transformers and Super GT. Following the screening of a message from Tesshō Genda and some idols (that only Silverbolt cares about), there's a 30-second countdown to when the event begins and the toys go on sale, to signify the the 30th anniversary of Transformers.

As guests browse the toys for sale, the ever beast-loving Rattrap gets into the Dinobots and buys a Grimlock. During an autograph event with TakaraTomy's toy designers, he's delighted to have Grimlock signed by Hisashi Yuki, designer of Lio Convoy and Big Convoy, and is further impressed when Shogo Hasui reveals he designed a beast called Bruticus. Meanwhile, Rhinox is happy he got a clear G1 Optimus Prime toy with his purchases, and Silverbolt gets to ride a Grimlock statue but is disappointed with the backlighting in the resulting photo. During a Q&A segment with the designers, the host, Maeda, mishears Hisashi Yuki's mention of a Masterpiece toy "on the Destron side", thinking he said "Destronger". The Axalon employees then watch the Optimus Prime trailer leave, and Rhinox is deeply moved even though, as he's forced to point out, the truck wasn't fully accurate to Prime's appearance. After a final surprise at how many people really showed up, they retire to a restaurant where Rattrap notes that most other customers also came straight from the event, making it look like a Transformers-themed cafe.
