The Battle Patrol Team is present at Planet Zone Base as it is attacked by four of the Nine Great Demon Generals, who attempt to (and succeed in) stealing the Energon Z, an immensely powerful energy source. The Battle Patrol Team does it's best to stop the overmighty attackers, but their weapons cause little more than a mocking laughter from the huge Decepticons. Nonetheless, right after the fight the team boards Moonradar's rocket and races off to Earth, where they battle the other half of the Demon Generals. Again being absolutely incapable of even hurting their opponents, the Battle Team Patrol along with their fellow Microtransformers are on the verge of extinction only to be saved by the Powered Masters Dai Atlas and Sonic Bomber, wo arrive just in the nick of time to kick the Decepticons' butts. The Battle Team Patrol's members all survive and later cheer for their new Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!
Toys
Generation 1
- Battle Patrol (Micromaster Patrol, 1989)
- All four members of the Battle Patrol came packaged on a single card, as part of the first year of Micromasters assortments. Their transformations are fairly diverse in comparison to the legions of identically-engineered Micromasters that came later.
Zone
- Battle Patrol Team (Micro Transformer team, 1990)
- Japanese ID number: C-332
- The Japanese version of the Battle Patrol comes in a considerably different coloration: Big Shot (Gunlift) and Sidetrack go to deep brown and dark olive, while Flak (Powerbomb) and Sunrunner go blue and white. Early versions of this set also used yellow (!) plastic rather than the medium gray found on everyone but Sunrunner. This variation naturally goes for a fair bit more than the "corrected" version on the secondary market.
Return of Convoy
- Battle Patrol Team (Micro Trailer team, 1991)
- Japanese ID number: C-374
- The "corrected-color" version of the Battle Patrol Team was re-released in Return of Convoy with no alterations. It did come with an extra that the Zone version lacked; Micro Trailer #11.
