What shocking revelations will forever change what we thought we knew of the beloved '80s series?</b> <p/>As the Cybertronian Civil War rages between Optimus Prime's Autobots and Megatron's Decepticons, Shockwave has encountered a new obstacle to the Decepticons' victory and subjugation of the planet: Megatron himself!
