Protecting Earth becomes a mighty task as the team prepares to battle against menacing pairs of Cyclone Mini-Cons, who partner with Deployers to unleash the most powerful attacks and wreak even more destruction than ever. Our hero Bumblebee and his team prepare for battle with new power-ups and mini-con allies of their own, as they maintain their mission to protect the planet as robots in disguise.
The series will continue to celebrate the continuous underlying themes of teamwork, companionship and the importance of standing up to wrongdoers and will debut its second season in the first quarter of 2016.
