Unfortunately, Decepticons (Starscream, Soundwave, Ravage, Laserbeak, Frenzy, Rumble, Thundercracker and Skywarp) have also arrived and Starscream discovers that energy from machines and blasts can be harnessed and converted into Energon cubes. Meanwhile, Noah Diaz is broken-hearted to say goodbye to Mirage while becoming a member of the G.I. Joe. At HQ, Noah discovers that in a secret lab underground, GI Joe scientists are examining a giant robot frozen in ice. The robot is none other than... MEGATRON! Or maybe Megatron is at Cobra HQ?
