Fiction
Beast Wars II
When a mysterious space-time-warping device crash-landed on the Planet Gaia, the Maximals, led by Leo Prime, and the Predacons, lead by Galvatron, raced to be the first to get it. The Predacons got there first and used its power to summon the mighty Majin Zarak from Cybertron's past to aid them in battle.
To counter the threat of the nigh-invincible Majin Zarak, the Maximals summoned Optimus Primal from the Beast Wars of Prehistoric Earth. Majin Zarak had no trouble defeating the likes of the Maximals due to his massive size, virtual invulnerability and plethora of devastating attacks.
In the end, the Maximals discovered his weak-spot was the third eye on his forehead, which was where all his nerve-endings were clustered. Leo Prime and Optimus Primal used the combined power of their individual Energon Matrices to transform themselves into Flash Lio Conoy and Burning Convoy. Together, they unleashed the power of their Matrices into a combined attack called the "Double Matrix Blast". The blast struck Majin Zarak in his third eye, killing him on the spot.
