In "", set in the year 2005, Blaster was assigned to Autobot City on Earth. During the invasion by Megatron's forces, Blaster was responsible for sending a distress signal to Optimus Prime on Moonbase One. Upon Megatron's orders, Soundwave releases Rumble, Frenzy, Ravage, and Ratbat to jam the transmission to prevent him from establishing contact with the Autobot Moonbase. After Blaster's broadcasting message was interrupted and blocked, Soundwave's cassette minions attack the communications tower. For the first time we also see Blaster's own cassettes, Eject, Rewind, Ramhorn, and Steeljaw. The signal is received and Optimus Prime is able to arrive with reinforcements to defeat the Decepticons. After the attack, Blaster picked up transmissions from Moonbases One and Two. He was not seen for the rest of the film.
