Robot Trek I
The Junkicons have returned as the Nonocons planning to destroy Gearatron and control the Universe.
Synopsis
The Zapbots have enjoyed peace in the galaxy for about a year now. As the High Council of Gearatron has agreed to allow the Zapbots to start exploring outside the galaxy, Botimus Prime picks Anthony up from his vacation sledding with his friends.
While enjoying time in his quarters, Anthony receives a warning from the Matrix of Leadership. The Zapbots increase their speed to the edge of the galaxy as they receive a distress call from the Starship Macintosh. When the Zapbots approach the sector Fortress Misslemax is attacked by a new starship destroying their shields. After retaliation the Junkicons now called Nonocons reveal themselves as a passing alien race accidentally rebuilt their bodies. Messy now goes by Amphotron, with his second in command now called Skyscream (formerly Showoff.) Through quick thinking the Zapbots disable the Nonocons' ship with their array of new weapons and head away from the battle scene to repair their damage.
After repairing Fortress Misslemax the Zapbots receive a distress call from another Federation ship. As Misslemax is still without warp, Anthony takes Botimus Prime and the Build Team out to find the ship. They run into a newer version of the Eaton robot and through battle the Build Team combine to form Almighty to destroy it. With the Zapbots succeeding they realize it was a diversion to lure them away from Misslemax and quickly return to find the ship under attack. The Zapbots make it aboard but during the battle Boaty and Flier are severally wounded.
When the Nonocons attack again, Shortstop is thrown from the bridge of the ship and awakes on an asteriod. Converting back to X-O suit mode Anthony sets off for Gearatron to seek assistance. A vision from a dream tells him to head to Earth for help. Anthony heads back to Gearatron first and meets up with the Super Changers. After giving orders to commander Gaxator Anthony sets off for Earth to his old Battle base. Here he activates five pre-Zapbots he made before the original Zapbots. Anthony takes the newly activated Tech Team back to edge of space to stop the Nonocons.
Aboard Misslemax Amphotron threatens the bridge crew, but suddenly their ships come under attack from the Tech Team and the Super Changers. As the Zapbots retake the bridge, they are lead by Anthony who joins with his backup Shortstop body, and the newly rebuilt bodies of Boaty and Flier. The Zapbots drive the Nonocons from Misslemax and head to the backup bridge to begin the Transformation of Fortress Misslemax into robot mode. Just as Fortress Misslemax is about to destroy Amphotron's main ship, they retreat warping out of the area heading back into deep space.
Fortress Misslemax returns to Gearatron as they begin repairing the ship and putting the galaxy on high alert. Anthony finds out from his family that his father has a tumor in his brain and he plans on working with his Zapbots to find a cure for the issue. After Fortress Misslemax is fully repaired, and having new found reason for living, Anthony and the Zapbots head back out into space to try and find the Nonocons.
