Synopsis
Having tired of collecting mere Mini-Cons, Armada Megatron has moved on to stealing all kinds of large and rare Transformers toys from the people of the Legends World. As he's announcing his evil plot, he is attacked by Armada Starscream, who asks him to give up on his ambitions, explaining that the spiritual energy generated by his desire only serves to power up the Zamojin who created this world. Megatron refuses to stray from his chosen path or give up his collection, instead accusing Starscream of betraying him, and the two do battle. Suddenly, Starscream's worst fear comes to pass: everyone's spirit energy has strengthened the Zamojin enough to restore Windblade's original purpose as a tool for destroying the Legends World!
Refusing to let this happen, Starscream readies his Null Laser Cannons in an attempt to destroy Windblade. Armada Megatron recognizes the situation, explaining that Starscream died channeling all his energy into this same attack while fighting a great evil in their previous dimension, causing Ultra Magnus to realize Starscream is in fact a ghost brought into existence by spirit energy. Rattrap is more concerned that if Starscream goes through with his plan, both he and Windblade will die, but fortunately Alpha Trion has a solution, using his ultra-drill to summon someone close to Starscream from his home universe—Alexis. The sight of the human girl causes Starscream's memories to resurface, and he calms down and accepts her offer to return home with her. Sick and tired of the Legends World, Armada Megatron follows suit through the portal, leaving his stolen toys behind. With Windblade back to normal and the toys returned to their rightful owners, everyone's happy... until G1 Megatron asks for the original owner of Armada Megatron's ultra-rare Unicron of Light, and everyone present tries to claim it.

Notes
- Much of the backstory behind this issue, such as Starscream learning of the Zamojin and getting his super mode, was detailed in chapter 35 of the webcomic (published two weeks after this issue was made available). Megatron's interest in big toys has been growing since chapter 29.
- Armada Megatron is seated on a railway bridge found in Akihabara.
- Miko Nakadai appears on a billboard.
- The word “宝富” on a billboard means TakaraTomy.
- The assorted toys stolen by Armada Megatron include a Unicron of Light, Overlord, Grand Maximus, Galvatron Color Lio Convoy, Metrotitan, Generations Deluxe Primus, Minerva, Bad Boy, Bug Bite, Battle Gaia, BlackZarak, Mecha Usagi Moon, Thunderwing, blue Autoceptor, Clench, Windmill, Comic Bom Bom blue Convoy, Scowl, Natron, Shockwave, and the Caboose from the Electric Train and Battle Set.
- As noted by Armada Megatron, Starscream tries to sacrifice himself the same way he did in the Legends of the Microns/Armada episode "Cramp".
Errors
- In the first panel, "Transformers" (トランスフォーマー) is misspelled as "Transfarmers" (トランスファーマー).
