Some two hundred years ago, Ultra Magnus and Bumblebee were dispatched to the Zugzwang Cluster to investigate the disappearance of a Galactic Council delegate; tracking the wreckage to the planet Xetaxxis, they discovered that the Decepticons had formed an alliance with the alien Dire Wraiths to menace the Cybertronian orphan Stardrive.

As the battle reached its zenith, however, the Magnus Armor was targeted by Dire Wraith leader Vekktral for assimilation, briefly transforming the outer armor into a monstrous fused creature.
