The Transformers, aliens from the distant world of Cybertron where life took a mechanical instead of an organic form, have found themselves stranded on Earth and resurrected after four million years. The Decepticons, lead by Megatron quickly secure technology from a nuclear power plant and begin using it to construct a base from which they can work to gather more fuel. The Autobots are in more dire straits. Their energy levels already low, they desperately need to refuel if they intend to fend off their enemies and escape Earth. So it's fortuitous when mechanic Sparkplug Witwicky repairs Bumblebee and offers to assist the Autobots in finding a way to convert Earth fuels for Autobot use. But when Megatron learns of this development, he becomes determined to secure Sparkplug's services for the Decpticons.
