Steeljaw becomes furious and tries to attack Megatronus only to be swiftly defeated. Megatronus nearly succeeds in his plan, but Optimus cuts away the part of the scepter with the anti-spark, just before the Allspark enters it and cause to the Sparks to merge, with a throw of his weapon. This causes the two Sparks to return to their respective points of origin, and a now-enraged Megatronus lashes out at the Autobots. During this showdown, the Autobots follow a plan from Bumblebee, with Optimus and Grimlock attacking him to force him into a spot where Liberty Island statue's arm, cut off by Windblade, Sideswipe and Drift, lands on him. As Megatronus tries to get out from under it, Bumblebee, Strongarm and Sideswipe use their combined Decepticon Hunters to emit a blastwave large enough to vaporize him. However, Bumblebee still questions if he is not dead.
