1Star Saber, Hero of the Universe1989-03-1420 minThe year is 2025 AD. Since escaping from Earth, the Destrons have continued their invasion of planets all over the universe in search of a new base.

One day, Wingwaver reports to Star Saber that the Destron Dinoforce have attacked the Moon, heading toward Earth.

Goryu comically rouses the other Dinoforce members and they head toward Earth, encountering Wingwaver, who is on patrol, on the way.

5Go Rescue Squad1989-04-1820 minThe rest of the Micromaster Rescue Squad members -- Fire, Pibo and Boater -- arrive at Countdown to begin their first assignment on Earth.

6Invasion of the Uranium Mine1989-04-2520 minIn the wilderness of Africa, the Destrons ponder their next move -- finding the beta-uranium that is currently being mined and using it to increase their fighting strength.

They take the miners as hostages but not before one of them transmits an S.O.S. to the Cybertrons. Laster, Blacker and Wingwaver use a drilling gun to bore their way toward the suffocating hostages, but cannot seem to blast their way through a large slab of rock. The two remaining humans helps the…
7The Energy Base Explodes1989-05-0920 minIn the middle of the jungle, the Destrons are rapidly gathering and storing energy in the hopes of recharging their space platform. The Cybertrons discover what the Destrons are up to and send out the team of Braver and the Multiforce to stop them. There is increasing tension between Blacker and Wingwaver. Dinoforce member Yokuryu tries to blast the Cybertrons into the open from the air as the other Dinoforce spread out throughout the jungle.

8Terror Under the Big City1989-05-1620 minThe Destrons are attracted to a city's three-layer transportation system, using Drillhorn to dig deep underground to tap into the city's electrical systems. As the Breastforce members roam around under the city, the Cybertrons pick up a distress signal and mobilize to investigate. Star Saber, the Brainmasters and the Rescue Force head into the underground to stop the Destrons, but they each encounter danger -- Star Saber meeting Deszaras, the Brainmasters meeting the Breastforce and the Rescue Force trying to free the people. Star Saber manages to defeat Deszaras and his two animal partners…

News of the attack quickly reaches the Autobots, and Star Saber takes off to help, accompanied by Galaxy Shuttle, carrying the Brainmasters. The whole thing is missed by Jean and Holi, who arrive just as the heroes are leaving, with Jean planning to use the Shuttle Base's computers to do his summer vacation homework quickly, for which Holi chastises…

18Rescue Gaihawk!1989-08-0820 minAfter Hellbat's recent attack on planet Micro, Star Saber checks in with Blacker for an update on Decepticon activity on Earth. Blacker reports that although there has been a random, unfocused attack by the Dinoforce, there have been no sightings of the other Breastforce members. This, we soon learn, is because the Breastforce are all also on Micro, stewing aboard the Thunder Arrow and grumbling about Hellbat's self-serving scheming.

As they talk, Laster radios through with a communiqué from God Ginrai, who wants to offer his sympathies to Blacker. The Autobots' reduction in fighting power is ruefully discussed, and Ginrai offers his services if they need him.
26Farewell, God Jinrai1989-09-2620 minWith Star Saber and Blacker injured and God Ginrai fatally wounded, the Decepticons exploit the Autobots' loss of manpower by successfully ransacking a solar power station, and attacking the New Cheyenne Airport fuel depot in North America.

The deadly projectiles are launched from an orbiting satellite and fire automatically, meaning that even Star Saber will be unable to reach the satellite in time to stop their launch. Deathsaurus quickly demonstrates by targeting Sambalpur, India, and despite the speed with which Star Saber issues emergency orders, the Multiforce and Rescue Team arrive at the location only seconds before the missile impacts.
