Leozak, the Decepticon Breastforce leader, is ordered by Deathsaurus to destroy everyone who tries to interfere with the Decepticon plans to steal Earth's energy. Leozak then orders Icepick, the Dinoforce leader, to destroy the Autobot known as Galaxy Shuttle. For some reason Icepick refuses, at first, but a few words from Deathsaurus and he's off. He comically rouses the other Dinoforce members and sets off towards Earth. On the way they encounter Wingwaver. To put a long story short: they attack him, the Brainmasters attack them, they merge into Dinoking, the Pretender dinosaur shells attack the Autobot base and chaos ensues. Star Saber heads into space to help his men, but can he really withstand the power a Combiner?

At the beginning we find out where the Decepticons have set up their base: underwater inside their spaceship, the Thunder Arrow. Meanwhile Jan's had some painful adventures during his time with the Autobots, and he begins school with children his own age. Star Saber talks with Principal Wood and tells the story of how Jan was the only survivor of a spaceship blown up by the Dinoforce. His parents were on the ship, and so the Autobots took him in and raised him. Leozak and the Dinoforce somehow end up at Jan's school in order to defeat Star Saber. The Brainmasters come to the rescue and the Dinoforce merge into Dinoking. In response the three Brainmasters merge into Road Caesar while Star Saber battles with Leozak. Will they manage to defeat the Decepticons in time, or will an innocent get seriously hurt?

Three more Breastforcers appear in this episode - Jaruga, Killbison and Drillhorn. They, along with Leozak and the Dinoforce, make plans to attack an energy complex. Meanwhile Jan's getting a physics lesson from the Multiforce about leverage. At the plant the Dinoforce attack while the Breastforcers hide in the sand. The Multiforce notice them and the battle begins.... they are outnumbered, though, and the Dinoforce combine into Dinoking to top it all. Jan contacts the Autobots and informs them, and so Star Saber and the Brainmasters set out. It seems the Multiforce aren't so helpless, though, as they combine into Landcross. But what will be the outcome when the Breastforcers join the battle? The other Autobots... will they arrive in time?

The Rescue Squad members - Red Hot, Fixit and and Seawatch - arrive in this episode. Stakeout, the little Micromaster police car, is their leader. Later Leozak sends the Dinoforce to attack a floating sea-platform that's an amusement park. Meela, Jan's girlfriend, is there. Star Saber finds out and leaves with the Brainmasters and the Rescue Squad to save the humans. While the Brainmasters lead the Dinoforce away from the hostages and the Rescue Squad starts evacuating them, Star Saber begins to battle Leozak. The Brainmasters and the Dinoforce both combine to form Roadcaesar and Dinoking, but how will the battle end?

This time, Deathsaurus, Leozak and the Dinoforce sets up a base in a South American jungle, extracting... tadaaa! Energy! Who would've thought of that?
So it's up the rookie Wingwaver and his team, along with superior Gripper, to stop the cons.

Well, we've got another episode done! This episode's unique because it really makes it evident that it takes place in the future...
LA has a subway system! Watch the thrilling battle between Deathsaurus and Star Saber now!

In this episode, the newest Decepticon, Hellbat strikes a research institute. He uses his Hypnotic Wave to render both humans and Autobots helpless. Elsewhere, Lightspeed has constructed a little Decepticon detector, which alerts the Autobots of the attack. When Hellbat meets up with his teammates, he gets berated by Leozak right off the bat. However, the Hypnotic Waves prove useful, and do a number on the Autobots. Can Hellbat pick up on Leozak's failures and become the next leader of the Breastforce? Also, Jan meets up with an old friend of his father's.

The episode takes place at a military base in Nevada, which the Decepticons have attacked before. Why attack again? Because Hellbat has some secret information and knows (almost) exactly when to attack. So, reluctantly, Leozak agrees to the mission. Once they arrive, they are surprised to discover Dashtacker and Machtackle are already on guard duty and hilarity ensues! Well, not so much hilarity as action, but you get the point.

This time, Drillhorn concocts a scheme to raid all of the gas stations around the globe, starting with the Washington DC area. It sounds pretty petty, doesn't it? Don't worry, it gets better. This causes a shortage, forcing the governments to send an oil tanker to re-fill the gas tanks. Once that arrives, the Decepticons want it handed to them -- and if the Governor of Maryland resists, the 'Cons have a way to persuade him otherwise. This episode also marks the return of the Dinoforce!

The episode starts off with a routine Breastforce attack on an oil tanker... except Hellbat is AWOL. Once the Autobots take off to answer the SOS, we find out exactly where Hellbat is -- waiting for the right moment infiltrate the Autobots' base and find out all of their vital information. However, not all the Autobots left to battle Leozak and the others, so what will happen if and when the Autobots find Hellbat in their base? You'll have to watch the episode to find out!

Some odd natural phenomena have been disrupting a local farmer's work in western Canada... At least, it's assumed they're natural. Machtackle has been dispatched to check it out, as a test to see if he can work well in his two individual components. Will they work well as a team or will the seperation cause a rift between them?

Several passenger and cargo ships have been disappearing into a cloud, which tips the Autobots off that something just might not be right. Star Saber decides to disguise himself as an ordinary ship and see exactly what's going on, all by himself. However, putting his spark at risk draws much concern from the rest of the Autobots and especially Jan, who looks up to Saber.

There are some Decepticon attacks on the Micromaster world of Micro, which -- due to Apex Prime's second unit handling enough already -- requires Star Saber's assistance. Of course, he brings along the Rescue Squad, who are glad to be home (for the most part).

In trouble for his actions last episode, Hellbat makes it up to Leozak by planning to bust Gaihawk out of a prison on Micro. Once Star Saber hears of this, he dispatches Stakeout and Greatshot (an old friend of Gaihawk's) to intercept them. This can only lead to a confrontation, of course! The prison break also causes a huge riot, with destruction aplenty.

Hellbat is shut out of a Breastforce meeting, welcoming back Gaihawk, and begins to wonder why. He then theorizes that by getting Gaihawk onto the team, he may have replaced himself. Homing in on the meeting's signal, his fears are put to rest. Gaihawk isn't there to replace him, the Breastforce needs six members... Deathcobra is. Does Decepticon in-fighting concern the Autobots at all? Not really, but the aftermath might.

En route to Earth, the Rescue Squad deal with having to leave their homeworld once again. Meanwhile, Deathsaurus plots to re-activate his Space Fortress. Running into the Autobots, he plans to destroy the one who responsible for its deactivation in the first place, Star Saber. Will Star Saber be able to handle Deathsaurus, who is furious over all of setbacks the Autobots have caused him or will Deathsaurus make an example out of Star Saber on his way to conquering the universe? Either way, this battle is not one you can afford to miss!

Lightspeed, Stakeout and that awesome dude Jan make a visit to the Schaefer research facility. Here, it's where Lightspeed explains the power of Schaefer energy. Not so coincidentally, the Decepticons have an interest in it aswell. The Decepticons attack the lab, causing many humans to be caught basically in the crossfire. Can Star Saber save them and also defeat the Decepticons? He does have some help in the form of a returning Road Caesar, whom we haven't seen since the fifth episode. We'll be seeing more of him in coming episodes. Also, Jan deals with the idea that Star Saber's loss on Micro against Liokaiser wasn't just a fluke and could very well happen again. All this and more all packed into a twenty minute episode!

As this is an action series, this episode centers around a meeting between Landcross and Liokaiser, which definitely isn't friendly. There's also a sub-plot where a group of scientists in the South Pole have had their radio blocked, and it just has happens that one of the scientists is the father of Jan's friend, who also just so happens to be at the Autobot base when they discover there are problems in the South Pole. How's that for being in the right place at the right time? Can Star Saber, Landcross and of course Jan and his friend rescue them or will they become casualties in the Decepticons' endless quest for Energon?

This episode takes place in the Arabian Desert, where (as everybody knows) there is lots of oil. So naturally, it would be a prime target for the Decepticons. The Autobots receive information that the Dinoforce are in that area, stealing all the oil they can get their hands on and promptly make their way there. Of course the Dinoforce wouldn't be much trouble for the Autobots... But what about... oh, I'll let you find out for yourself!

We start off where we left off last time, with Gripper hurt and the Autobots all standing over him. Instead of worrying about revenge, they're more worried about the fallen comrade, who will be missed on the battlefield, but more importantly needs to stay at the base until he is completely recovered. This is not something that pleases Gripper, who doesn't believe in taking time off. With Gripper down, how will Star Saber respond to a Decepticon attack? If you thought they were hurting already, wait until another even higher ranking Autobot gets incapacitated.

Wounded beyond repair, Apex Prime has a decision to make. Perceptor has given him the option of a very controversial procedure which would no doubt change the face of the Autobot team as we know it. The decision is Apex Prime's to make and there's nothing Perceptor, Star Saber or Jan can say to change his mind. Also, Apex Prime is hardly the only high-ranking Autobot injured, Star Saber and Gripper are too. In episode 21, Gripper was blown apart by the Decepticons and in 23, Star Saber didn't fair too much better. How do the Autobots stand a chance against the Decepticon onslaught?

Last time, the Autobots were saddened when Apex Prime seemingly gave his life rather than live as a shell of his former self. Instead, he would give his spark so the Autobots could create a new warrior. That's warrior's name is Victory Leo. However, the procedure did not come without side effects and has left Victory Leo a little feral and unpredictable. How will the Autobots react to the former Apex Prime's lack of mental stability?
