Synopsis

The mad warrior Ultra Magnus has succeeded. Using the Terminus Blade, he has sent the Earth of Primax 207.0 Epsilon into his home dimension, destroying everything left in the former "Classicsverse". Now, his actions have spread across the multiverse, causing chaos across dimensions and time...


(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)

Quotes

"If I were him, I'd wanna blast the closest thing I could find... Those would do in a pinch. Organics make the most wonderful popping noises!"
"A delightful idea! Let's have at-"

Tentakil and Nautilator shortly before getting their comeuppance.


"So, let us wipe across this untamed planet, and tear it asunder to its very screaming molecules. Their seas will run red, their mountains crumble, their forests burn, and all will know, beast or Autobot, the true meaning of war!"

Megatron has a few ideas for improving the environment.

Notes

  • The events of this installment parallel the beginning of "Beast Wars (Part 1)". As in Beast Wars, Earth has two moons.
  • While the Autobots adopt beast modes corresponding to their Beast Wars toys (and Ultra Magnus takes on his 2012 Timelines toy body), Megatron takes on his Generation 2 "Hero" body, Dirge has Beast Wars II Dirge's body, and likewise the Seacons now use the colors of their Beast Wars II counterparts.
  • Nautilator has no Beast Wars II counterpart, which may explain why he was promptly killed off, however Tentakil has one in Scylla.
  • Grimlock's new raptor mode has feathers! Not enough of them, though.
