Upon absorbing the Golden Age envoy's Golden Power and attaining a new form, Gold Megatron used the Silver Matrix filled with all seven types of Star Power to create seven new Megatrons to serve him, including Purple Megatron. In the following battle royale, Purple Megatron fought against his appropriate nemesis, Purple Wicked Convoy. The outcome of this confrontation was unknown, but Purple Convoy would later be seen as part of Magna Convoy's Primus Vanguard. Finale

  1. Precursor World fiction frequently utilizes an elaborate form of Japanese wordplay to impart characters with a sort of "B-side" moniker. In this case the title "Emperor of Destruction Purple" is read as the name "Purple Megatron." See the Japanese language article for further details on how this works.
