The Battlestars were first organized by Dai Atlas, the Supreme Commander at the time. Dai Atlas enaugerated Sky Garry as temporary Supreme Commander and charged him with the task of resurrecting Optimus Prime via the Zodiac to battle the evil forces of Dark Nova. After a skirmish with zombie False Convoy, the Battlestars brought Optimus Prime back to life as Star Convoy.

The Battlestars faced the forces of Dark Nova and the resurrected Super Megatron until their eventual victory of the Star Giant.
