The Kiss Players come face-to-face with Primus.
Synopsis
Shaoshao is pulled from the alternate reality by the same mysterious force that's been stealing "Allspark" fragments... the Transformers' creator, Primus! He's gathered the three Kiss Players together, and explains to them that what they've really been pulling from across time and space are bits of Angolmois energy, the force that fuels Unicron!
The Sparkbots flee, and Primus gives chase in his vehicle mode (causing the girls to wonder why a god would transform into a camper-van). Suddenly the Sparkbots transform, only this time, the special marks that the girls had given them have been replaced by the sign of Unicron. The girls a horrified, realizing that they've been used to help the ultimate evil.

Notes
- This issue came out the day before the final installment of the Kiss Players Position radio drama aired, and only covers the very first part of that episode.
- The art in this installment gets decidedly pencil-sketchy after the first two panels. Looks like Ōshima was under a tight deadline again.
- Primus appears here in the form of the very first Primus toy made, the "God Primus" contest prize from the Transformers Generations Deluxe book, limited to 100 pieces.
- The Sparkbots finally "speak", and it's in random strings of symbols. It's possible this was meant to represent the "dataspeak" used by another group of Unicron's creations, the Mini-Cons of the Unicron Trilogy cartoons.
- The Unicron symbol is the same one found on the Blentrons, the servants of Unicron from Beast Wars Neo.
