Thundercracker and his drones responded to a incursion in their territory, but instead found a group of Empties who had wondered from the Rad Zone... or, at least, that's what Thundercracker and his drones thought they were. The Empties revealed themselves to be a rebel cell lead by Obsidian, and consisting of Strika, Hoist, Sandstorm, and Octane. After the rebels quickly blasted the drones into submission, Thundercracker was captured. Strika, Hoist, and Sandstorm interrograted Thundercracker, and eventually got the coordinates to Megaplex's location from him. Thundercracker's capturer's took their time getting outside of Iacon, as they wanted to be seen with him. When Megaplex and his army arrived, Obsidian refused to release Thundercracker, and after Obsidian compared Megaplex to the original Megatron, a battle ensued. Termination
