Blaster and Straxus battle... between two worlds!
Straxus is working on a bridge which teleports Transformers between Cybertron and Earth. Perceptor launches a mission to destroy the bridge, while Blaster wishes to rescue his friend Spanner, who was captured by the Decepticons to build the device.
Back on Earth, the power struggle between Megatron and Shockwave is interrupted by a message from Straxus, convincing the two Decepticons to work together in order to get the teleporter working.
On Cybertron, the Autobots' mission leads to a terrible discovery, and ends in a battle between Blaster and Lord Straxus.
"You could have fuel coming out of your audio modules, Autobots... it still wouldn't be enough to save you from the mechanical might of Straxus!" - Straxus
