Teletraan 10 wants answers, but she's going to have to wait...

Synopsis

Teletraan 10 finally confronts her commander Black Panther Man with footage of himself at the Teletraan I computer at roughly the time of the sabotage event, and demands an explanation. Black Panther Man is unfazed and slickly evasive. But 10's suspicions must be put on hold, as a wormhole has opened up above Earth, ejecting three mysterious objects that fall to the planet below...

(Numbers indicate order of appearance.)

Notes

  • Another volume with no featured toy, simply a setup for the following 5-part Kiss Players recap that would take over the strip for a few months.
  • Teletraan 10's timing is a bit suspect. She made the discovery of the footage back in the unnamed volume that ended the G-2 section of the story, which seems to take place about the same time as the early Kiss Players story. But the next issue reveals the three objects to be the Sparkbots, who arrive on Earth after the end of the EDC's "Legion" experiments and the removal of the anti-electron shield that prevented Transformers from traveling to Earth. So... she's been sitting on that info for a while, hasn't she?
  • Ryūsei (流星) in the title is a reference to the Micro Change subline that the Sparkbot molds originally came from—Ryūsei Robo (流星ロボ, lit. "Meteor Robo").
