Transformers: The Headmasters

At a speech on earth, something emerges from under the ground - a huge rocket, along with the Destron clones, who send a satellite into orbit. Meanwhile, Predaking and Bruticus begin attacking cruise ships in the ocean. Spike and Carly start to organize teams to repel the Destrons - the Protectobots, the Throttlebots and the clones. The Cybertron Headmasters and Targetmaster hasten their journey back toward Earth in Fortress Maximus - with Sixshot getting a free lift - after getting a report from Metroplex. Defensor battles Bruticus as the Throttlebots face Predaking. The Targetmasters try to determine what the giant metal pillar, which popped out of the ground, is used for, and they see it emitting a large amount of electrical energy. The Trainbots reunite Daniel with his parents, who are trying to rescue some people trapped in a crevice. The bands of electrical energy released by the pillars stretch across the world, causing massive destruction. Sixshot confronts the Destron clones

As the Cybertrons are flying around in space, searching for the Destrons, Daniel gets accidentally separated from Wheelie and locked into a room. Megazarak attacks Fortress Maximus while Wheelie tries to get Daniel out of the room. Sixshot emerges from Megazarak as three odd solar windstorms emerge from the asteroid belt. Sixshot gets forced into one, while a section of Fortress Maximus, containing Daniel, gets ripped off into another. The Cybertron Targetmasters use the Trainbots to go out searching for Daniel, who is being driven toward a planet by the asteroids. Sixshot is there too. He starts to leave Daniel, but suddenly a rock creature appears behind Daniel and is ready to grab him when Sixshot blasts it. The Cybertron Headmasters realize that the three storms funneled the rocks into the planet Diamond. Meanwhile, on the planet, Daniel and Sixshot start talking to each other, forming an odd friendship. They are interrupted by the emergence of more rock creatures, who they manage

The Cybertrons can find no trace of the Destrons on Master after the loss of the disk. The Destrons have headed toward an asteroid belt, where they plan their next course of action. They decide to head back toward Master to begin production of the Zarak shield. The Targetmasters spot Soundblaster spying on them with Ratbat and follow them back to the planet's surface.They then fall into an ambush by the Destron Targetmasters. The Destrons blast the side of a mountain, uncovering a water storage tower which sweeps the Cybertrons away. Underground, the other Destrons are busy at work completing the Zarak shield. Pointblank and the Targetmasters make their way to the Destron underground base. As the Cybertron Headmasters move out to find the Destron base, Weirdwolf plants a bomb on Fortress' battle cruiser. Daniel and Wheelie spot Weirdwolf knocking on the walls and engage in a crossfire until Fortress arrives. Pointblank sends the three Cybertron Targetmasters up to Megazarak to find

In the aftermath of the explosion, the Destrons disappeared and Chromedome return Pointblank, Sureshot and Crosshairs back to Fortress Maximus. The blast fused the small robots who removed the bombs to the trio's hands, giving rise to the first Targetmasters. The Cybertrons head to Master to remove the Destrons, who have also tapped into the Targetmaster technology. The tension between the Cybertron Headmasters and Targetmasters continues to escalate as Pointblank calls Chromedome immature. The Cybertrons arrive and start to kick the Destrons' tails, forcing them to retreat. Chromedome is reunited with his old friend Sappho, who seems a little distant, and they catch up a bit. The Destrons start the second part of the plan as Sixshot impersonates Chromedome and kidnaps Sappho, trying to discover the Cybertrons' weak points. The Destrons, unable to find out anything, plant a time bomb inside Sappho and order him to walk into Fortress Maximus to explode inside. Sappho is released and hea

With Galvatron finally destroyed in the Antarctic, Scorponok took over as Destron emperor, pledging to avenge Galvatron's death. Scorponok sends Sixshot to destroy the Cybertron earth base, while Spike heads back to Earth for a summit meeting regarding the Ring of Fire from the north of Alaska to the South Pole. Spike notices that the Destrons have been attacking this area recently, looking for the thinnest layer of the crust. Dinosaurer shows up at the summit, attacking the Cybertrons before Metroplex shows up. Sixshot then confronts Chromedome, who recalls Ultra Magnus' death. Spike, trying to help Metroplex, gets seriously hurt. Wheelie then attacks Chromedome, saying that it was all his fault that Spike had a piece of metal imbedded in his nerve. The Destrons attack on Earth again, but Fortress tells Chromedome to stay behind until he gets control of his emotions. Without Chromedome, the Headmasters and Raiden get beaten up by the Destrons and Predaking. Fortress uses his superpowe

A quiet night at the Cybertron earth base is interrupted as the Destron Headmasters attack and take over the outpost. The Cybertrons regroup on planet Cygnia and try to determine Galvatron's next move. Meanwhile, Galvatron reveals his plan to the other Destrons. He will use the energy stolen from the Cybertron base to conquer Earth. At the same time, Scorponok reveals his plans to overthrow Galvatron to Weirdwolf, and orders him to find the Cybertrons' energy source. Later, Sixshot leads an assault on an energy source in Miami, prompting Ultra Magnus to send the Trainbots and Technobots. Fortress, meanwhile, sends out Doublespy to discover Galvatron's plans as Brainstorm reports on Sixshot's movements on Earth. As the Destron assault on Earth continues, Sixshot attacks Ultra Magnus. Metroplex tries to help Ultra Magnus but is intercepted by Dinosaurer as the Trainbots arrive. Realizing they are still outnumbered, they radio for assistance and the Cybertron Headmasters head to Earth. M

The Cybertron Headmasters continue their search for the Destrons, but are forced to put the hunt on hold by a sudden alarm, indicating a problem with Fortress Maximus' guns. Meanwhile the Destrons head toward Galvatron's latest target, the planet Paradise, a non-technological world where the inhabitants still live in huts. As Brainstorm continues to decipher the information on the chip given to him by the Battle Beast and the other Cybertrons work on repairing Fortress Maximus, Highbrow takes the Trainbots to visit the planet Paradise. Once there he meet a native girl, Papika, and her giant eagle. She tells him about how the Destrons are attacking the planet. Before the other Cybertrons arrive on the planet, Highbrow makes his way toward the Destron camp, where he is promptly captured by the Destron Headmasters. Steeljaw witnesses this and informs the rest of the team, but before they can help the Destrons attack from within the surrounding forest. As the Cybertrons battle the Destro

Galvatron leads the Destrons toward the twin planets of Sperity and Toluin, intent on draining their energy. The Cybertrons continuing their pursuit of the Destrons through the galaxy, detect them moving toward Sperity. Suddenly, the Destrons are attacked, but it does little damage to Megazarak. The Destrons mobilize and scour the planet's surface for energy, but then Fortress Maximus and the Cybertrons arrive to stop them. Meanwhile, Brainstorm, Arcee, Wheelie and Daniel land on the surface of Toluin surface, but find nothing aside from a small cave. Exploring further, the Cybertrons and Daniel discover that the inhabitants have moved everything to Toluin's underground and use Sperity as a place to trap their enemies. The group discovers the secret domed city of the inhabitants. They infiltrate it, but are captured by the inhabitants. They are able to escape and Brainstorm heads back to Sperity. Once there, he informs Fortress about Sperity's true purpose. Fortress orders the Cybert

On Chaar, the Decepticons detect a pair of incoming craft and attack, but are surprised when the newcomers are revealed to be Decepticons: the Horrorcons Snapdragon and Apeface, there at Galvatron's invitation. Punch, in the form of Counterpunch, detects this and sends word to the Autobots, with the Headmasters recognizing former comrades from Planet Master.

Thanks to Megazarak, Mars has now been destroyed and the Cybertron Headmasters are angry that they failed to stop him. Meanwhile, Daniel and Wheelie, who are goofing around, spot a strange light in the sky which buzzes past them. Chromedome and Hardhead sneak out of Fortress Maximus and head toward the Destron base. However, Scorponok detects them and orders Skull, Weirdwolf and Blitzwing to handle the Cybertron duo. Fortress and the others arrive on the scene in the nick of time, saving the pair as Soundblaster holds a meeting with his cassettes. Megazarak attacks Fortress Maximus, and is gaining the upper hand, when the strange light Daniel and Wheelie saw flies past, distracting Megazarak by taking Sixshot, allowing Fortress Maximus to escape. Doublespy reports to Fortress about the Destrons' plan to crown Scorponok the new Destron Emperor and during the ceremony, the Cybertrons attack. Suddenly, the light appears again, revealing itself to be a spaceship. From within the ship step

The Destrons plan to blow up Mars by causing simultaneous explosions at its northern and southern poles. Meanwhile, on the planet, Spike, Daniel, Wheelie and the Trainbots are conducting a geological survey when they detect some major seismic activity at the southern pole. Sixshot sends Dinosaurer to attack Metroplex, while he goes after the Technobots. Ultra Magnus transforms Metroplex and he battles Dinosaurer. On Mars, the Destrons attack the survey team. The Cybertron Headmasters then arrive to battle the Predacons, while the Terrorcons ambush the others, kidnapping Daniel, Wheelie and Getsue. They imprison them and tell them of the Destron plan to destroy Mars, sending meteors to destroy earth. Daniel, Wheelie and Getsue manage to escape, sending word to Fortress Maximus who heads to Mars to investigate. The Destron Headmasters attack Chromedome and the others, while Scorponok works on a plan to destroy Fortress Maximus. The Cybertron Headmasters are caught in a trap and seriously

While Ultra Magnus and Scattershot are investigating some strange seismic activity in Peru, the Cybertron Headmasters send Steeljaw and Ramhorn to find out what's inside the black nebula (from the last episode). Inside the nebula is a planet called Charr where enslaved Battle Beasts are used by Scorponok to build a massive construct. In the Andes, a dormant volcano suddenly erupts, and the Protectobots and Trainbots are sent to rescue the people living nearby. They are confronted by the Predacons and the Destron Headmasters. The other Cybertrons use Broadsides to fly to Earth, drive off Predaking, and the Trainbots evacuate the humans. In the nebula, Scorponok explains that the volcano exploded so the Destrons can tap its energies while Ramhorn and Steeljaw secretly listen. On Earth, the Destrons make one last attempt to take the villagers hostage, but they are thwarted by the Cybertrons. Back on Charr, Scorponok reveals part of his plans to Cyclonus and Scourge; Ramhorn and Steeljaw r

The Predacons are confronted by the Trainbots as Guardian knocks out Bruticus. The Cybertrons continue to plan a way to stop Galvatron from getting his hands on the new compound as Chromedome spots Weirdwolf and Wipe. He notices that they've been heading deep into Seibertron and tries to figure out what they are up to, sending out a telepathic message to the other Headmasters. They arrive, attacking Weirdwolf and Skull, as Chromedome heads underground to stop Wipe. On the surface, the battle still rages on, destroying more and more of the planet. Wipe manages to find Vector Sigma's chamber and he sets the bombs in it, just as Chromedome arrives. The Cybertrons cannot remove the bomb, so they flee the planet after some long, hard farewells. Galvatron arrives in Vector Sigma's chamber just as the bombs go off and is caught in the explosion. Rodimus, Cha and Blurr then depart in search of a new home for the Cybertrons, leaving Fortress in charge.

At the Cybertron base, the transmission of a rock concert is interrupted by shadowy figure who threatens to destroy cities unless his demands are met. In New York, the Headmasters collect the transmission and find that it is a different figure who made the threat there. In all, there are six different figures making the same threats in six different locations. In the forests of Great Britain, a ferocious winged wolf attacks; the Headmasters and Metroplex head there to investigate, but are too late. In another city, a laser gun flies around, destroying many buildings, but once again the Headmasters are too late. Daniel returns from gift-shopping with the Trainbots, causing the Headmasters to yell at the Trainbots for not helping. Daniel gets upset, as he had asked the Trainbots to help him pick out a present for his father, and rushes out of the room. The Headmasters then apologize and see Daniel playing with a ninja star. Chromedome recalls a time when his best friend was killed by a n

The Aerialbots, patrolling in outer space, pick up a large meteorite, which possesses some strange powers, heading toward the Earth. The Technobots, patrolling the desert area, come under attack from Cyclonus and the Terrorcons. In outer space, Fortress fires the guns of his ship at the meteorite but it has no effect on it. On Earth, Galvatron and the Destron Headmasters meet up with the Sweeps, before the Throttlebots intervene and attack. The Cybertron Headmasters and the Technobots then show up, challenging the Destrons. The Throttlebots try to intercept the meteorite, but it ends up injuring them and their ship. The Cybertron Headmasters head out into space again where they encounter the Destron Headmasters and Galvatron. Daniel is able to actually land on the meteorite since he is not made out of metal though, and he finds out that it is actually a spaceship built by the Destrons to get rid of the Cybertrons. He manages to disable its controls and to blow it up, much to Galvatron'

The Destrons manage to put Soundwave back together after his struggle with Blaster and rename him Soundblaster. Back on Earth, Sixshot sends Dinosaurer heading toward an energy plant in his battle station mode, but Metroplex moves in to intercept him. They battle when a strange creature suddenly appears from out of the ground and incapacitates Metroplex with a blast. Ultra Magnus reports this to Rodimus Convoy back on Seibertron and he prepares to send out the Cyberton Cassettes, still upset about Blaster's destruction, to figure out what's the matter. Rodimus Prime announces that the Cybertrons have been working on repairing Blaster, who is reborn as Twincast. With the reunion over, Twincast and the Cybertron Cassettes head to Earth. As Superion and the Cybertron Triple Changers battle Bruticus and the Destron Triple Changers, Twincast and the Cybertron Cassettes sneak into Dinosaurer and defeat the Destron Cassettes. The Destron Headmasters take the creature with them to Seiertron a

After learning of the origins of the Headmasters and the planet Master, the Autobots race to recover the missing Matrix.
