* Another bloody clip show, and the last one too (Phew!). Essentially, this is a retelling of "[[Showdown! The Fortress vs the Victory Unification]]" but with stock footage of the ''Masterforce'' human cast thrown in (i.e. Human Ginrai and the Headmaster Jrs) co-operating with the cast of ''Victory''. It also contains a montage of stock footage of the previous Japanese Autobot supreme commanders (Including one of Optimus Prime, dying in the recap at the beginning of ''The Headmasters''), when [[Victory Saber]] is heading to Deathsaurus's Space Fortress.


===Trivia===
*This episode is the twelfth of ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s many clip shows, the sixth of six released directly to home video, and the final episode of the entire series. It is essentially a retelling of the final narrative episode of the series, "[[Showdown! The Fortress vs the Victory Unification]]", but with clips from numerous other episodes interspersed throughout. Footage from "[[Attack! Leozack]]", "[[Jean - Defend the Campus!!]]", "[[The Terror of the Giant Tidal Waves]]" and "[[The Wrath of the Resurrected Giant Fortress!]]" all help to set the scene at the start, Jean recalls the events of "[[Move Out! Rescue Team]]" during the episode, and finally, "[[The Brave Hero of the Universe - Star Saber]]", "[[Sneak Attack! Dinoking]]" and "[[Unite!! Multiforce]]" contribute clips to close out the episode. There are even some new pieces of music not heard in the series before, mostly consisting of choral singing over "deep" emotional moments.
*This episode is the twelfth of ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s many clip shows, the sixth of six released directly to home video, and the final episode of the entire series. Like the other home-video clip shows from ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'' and ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', it was not included on either the [[Metrodome]] or [[Madman Entertainment]] DVD collections of the series.
**Perhaps most significant, however, is the addition of several clips from ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'' and ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'' into the narrative, most of which are repurposed as new events occurring concurrently with the storyline. Footage from "[[God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!]]" and "[[God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon]]" is used to represent Metalhawk and his Autobot team communicating with Star Saber and different points during the events of the episode (the instrumental version of the ''Masterforce'' closing theme tune, "[[Moero! Transformer]]", is even used as background music at one point) while somewhat more inexplicably, scenes of destruction from "[[The Dormant Volcano Mysteriously Erupts]]" are featured alongside all the other devastation caused by Deathsaurus's fortress's meteor bombs. Yet more clips from both series are used to form a montage of past leaders that Star Saber envisions as he struggles to regain consciousness after being blasted by the fortress; Optimus Prime's death from "[[Four Warriors Come out of the Sky]]", Hot Rod becoming Rodimus Prime again from "[[Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime]]", Fortress Maximus's transformation [[stock footage]] (first seen in "[[Head On!! Fortress Maximus]]") and Ginrai combining with Godbomber and blasting into space from "God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!"
