Synopsis
Some time earlier, Twincast and Flip Sides, one of his cassettes, are arrested by Road Rage and brought to Athenia to face charges of Flip Sides being a Decepticon spy. He vehemently defends his friend, refusing to believe these claims, but is forced to accept the truth when Flip Sides reveals her Decepticon persona.
In the present day, it's Twincast's turn to receive his new transtector, a giant mobile deck able to shrink into a handy small form that can be carried around. He uses it to blast his coworkers with music at full volume, pleased by their annoyed reactions that remind him of the good old days as the fun-loving Blaster who'd always do this kind of thing. He remembers having to start taking his duties seriously after becoming Metroplex's City Commander, and as Twincast he's always been doing spy work, but in the peaceful Legends Universe, he can finally throw all that away and become the music-loving Blaster once more! Optimus Primal doesn't care for his "rebirth" and tells him to get back to work.
Later, Blaster combines with his new body in front of his impressed cassettes. Rewind is curious about the appearance of his head, so he explains it to based on his Binaltech body, having enjoyed the peaceful life he lived back then. He then shocks everyone by announcing that he's leaving the Autobot Axalon Trading Company to become a professional musician, and is dissolving the cassette squad so they too have the freedom to live their own lives. His hope is that someday his music will bridge the gap between Autobots and Decepticons, allowing them to join together in a Cybertron Alliance and create a peaceful world where he can meet the imprisoned Flip Sides again.
Things don't go as planned for Blaster, however: entering the world of music is difficult and he soon ends up poor and homeless, trying to sell his CDs on the street to little success. As he reflects on Rosanna's musical career going better than his and wishing his transtector could transform into a house, a giant two-headed monster attacks the city. He joins with his transtector and leaps into action, grabbing a mysterious orb hanging from the beast's neck that turns out to be the Zodiac! Its energy flows through Blaster, granting his wish by transforming his transtector into a "Zone Mode" base. Joined by Blurr, Hardhead and his cassette friends, he unleashes the base's firepower on the monster, defeating it and revealing it to be Scourge, similarly transformed by the Zodiac.
In celebration of their victory, Blaster hosts a joint Autobot/Decepticon concert starring Hardhead, Rosanna and Cancer. He revels in the show, believing music to be the universal language that will bring everyone together... but for all his gusto, his CDs still don't sell and his life as a street musician continues.

Notes
- Twincast and Flip Sides are on trial following the events of Road Rage's Masterpiece bio, which describes Road Rage hunting the two down after Twincast became a fugitive in defense of Flip Sides.
- Blaster's hope for a Cybertron Alliance will come to pass (albeit briefly) in part 3 of the G-2 story pages, which did feature Blaster in the background. His appearance as Blaster instead of Twincast was likely a flub at the time, but this comic effectively fixes that.
- The transtector's Zone Mode is named after the Zone Base, made up of the transforming Micromaster bases.
