Primus: "Your time is now! Only one of pure spark can use the ultimate power; only you are worthy of this. Now, arise, Rodimus Prime!"

''Rodimus Prime: "Now... light our darkest hour!" (Places the matrix into the hilt of the Star Saber, and plunges into the core of Unicron)''

Galvatron: "There can be, Only ONE!!"
