A failed attack on the Autobots sends Gelshark to the Legends World.
Synopsis
In the year 2004 of another world, one where the Autobots and Decepticons landed on Earth 4 million years ago and awoke in 1985 to continue their battles, Jetfire and R-Blade are busy working with solitarium at the Autobot base. Suddenly they come under attack from Gelshark, who in spite of Jetfire's warnings that mishandling the solitarium could blast them all into another dimension, blasts the Autobots with his Maser Storm. The ensuing explosion sends Gelshark across dimensions to the Tokyo of the Legends World, where he's shocked to meet talking animals Rattrap, Waspinator, and Silverbolt.
Learning from the three natives that Transformers are fictional in this world, he assumes he must be an incredibly popular character, only to be shot down and told he's nothing compared to the likes of Optimus Prime or Bumblebee. When he reads up on this "Optimus Prime" and learns that it's the foreign name of his hated enemy, Optimus Prime, uh, Fire Convoy, Gelshark grows angry and decides to ruin Prime's reputation by impersonating him and causing evil. However, when some kids are overjoyed to see him dressed up as Optimus Prime and want to play with him, he realizes he can't bring himself to crush their dreams and gives up. In the end, Gelshark finds a role for himself as an attraction at a water park, where he lives happily ever after.

Notes
- The first part of this story takes place in Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity during the events of Robotmasters, which introduced both solitarium and R-Blade. In Japan, the 2001 Robots in Disguise franchise is set in the year 2000 of this continuity, so there's really nothing strange about Gelshark's presence either.
- R-Blade thinks about how great it is to work with Jetfire: Robotmasters established that Jetfire is his idol.
- Gelshark dressing up like Optimus Prime mirrors how he dressed up as his own Optimus Prime in "Quintuple Merge! Baldigus!".
