When Unicron assaulted his homeworld, Over-Run took the Mini-Con Matrix and three null-reality pods and fled to another dimension, where he hoped the inhabitants would be capable of defeating the planet eater. Dreamwave Armada issue 13 As he put up a beacon in San Francisco, Over-Run left the null-reality pods in Big Sur National Park, where the Autobots discovered them. Astroscope found similarities between these devices and technology the Transformers in their dimension had experimented with before the war, and deduced that they had an extradimensional visitor. Worlds Collide, Part 1 of 4 After the Autobots left to find Over-Run, the Decepticons found the null-reality pods and took them back to their Silver Ridge base. Several Autobot Mini-Cons were dispatched to infiltrate the Decepticon base, as Over-Run needed the pods to bring back the local version of Optimus Prime, who was lost in another dimension.
