Novo was stationed in or near Zhejiang Province in China. He was drawn to the scene of a recent battle between the Autobots and Decepticons, where he found the neuron refractor. As he was reporting back to Silas, Novo was interrupted by the arrival of Bulkhead and Bumblebee, but hid in the refractor as the two Autobots took it back to their base. Novo downloaded the device's technical specifications before taking Miko Nakadai hostage and forcing the Autobots to GroundBridge him back to China.

After he was picked up by MECH forces, Silas introduced him to the results of Project Mechanoid. Using a duplicated neuron refractor, Silas had Novo's mind transferred into a mechanoid body. The process worked, but Novo's mind was drastically changed by it. Considering himself greater than both human and Cybertronian, Novo rebelled against Silas and rescued Miko from her cell. After returning her to the Autobots, Novo turned down their offer to help him in favor of turning the MECH base into a smoking crater. He escaped the destruction. The Novo Incident
