Mission Briefing:
After a failed attempt to steal super-fuel, Megatron decides to make his own set of wheeled bots... the Stunticons! But in order to give them life, he needs to go to the core of Cybertron, and find the mega-computer that gave all Cybertronians life... Vector Sigma! He steals the Key to Vector Sigma from Alpha Trion, and heads for the core.
The Autobots learn of his plot, and head to Cybertron themselves. With the help of Optimus Prime's creator/father, Alpha Trion, they find Vector Sigma themselves... but too late! Vector Sigma has given life to the Stunticons. But Optimus makes a counter-move... the creation of the Aerialbots! But they learn that the Key of Vector Sigma has different powers on Earth... ones that can destroy the Earth!
And when Megtaron finds out, he won't flinch from using them...

Mission Report:
These episodes are better than I like to admit. The story was very good and well-written. But it messes up some story details that they put earlier in the series... they've had bots that were born on Earth (like the Dinobots), but Vector Sigma wasn't around (technically, the Constructicons were supposedly made on Earth too, but I'll complain about that on the The Secret of Omega Supreme review when I write it later). Yet, in this story, they say the only way for living Cybertronians to be born is with the help of Vector Sigma! Very annoying! It's never a good idea to mess up story lines you put earlier in the series.
But, other than that, the story was very good. We see the first version of the Allspark: Vector Sigma. We also see the Key of Vector Sigma, which is similar in appearance to Sari's Allspark Key in the Transformers Animated series. That was very interesting.
This multi-part show was pretty good over all.

*Since multi-part shows are really one story divided over more than one episode, I'll be doing the reviews over all of the multi-part episodes of the story at one time.
