History[]
After the Autorollers discovered the ancient copy machine, the Predacons found out that it could be used to create twisted copies of objects or Transformers and planted the device to be discovered by Tasmania Kid. Hoping to boost the Maximal forces with copies, Kid thoughtlessly used it on Lio Convoy, creating a black duplicate of the Maximal leader.
Dubbed "Copy Convoy" by the original, the copy revealed himself to be an aggressive warrior who insisted he was the original and attacked the Maximals. Black Lio Convoy used his intimate knowledge of the their abilities to defeat them and then fled into the jungle. To keep track of his movements, NAVI sent a tracking robot. Meanwhile, the Predacons Starscream and BB spotted the copy and tried to convince him to join the Predacons. Spotting the tracking robot, he put on a show of rejecting the Predacons, to fool the Maximals into trusting him and apologized to the Maximals for his earlier behavior in order to draw the Maximals out of the Yukikaze. Once they met, Black Lio Convoy stepped aside to reveal the Copy Machine, which scanned the Maximals and created copies of Bighorn, Tasmania Kid, Apache, and Scuba, all with the express intention of fully replacing the Maximals.
With the clones and the originals equally matched, the Maximals seemed to be stuck in a stalemate. Fortunately, though Black Lio Convoy possessed all of Lio Convoy's knowledge, he failed to consider what Lio Convoy didn't know. And that was Diver's actions, for the waterfall Copy Convoy had chosen as his site of ambush was, in fact, the Niagara Base, Diver's concealed outpost. Triggering snares to hold the copies in place, Diver bombarded the other Maximal copies, causing them to fade out of existence. Despite Black Lio Convoy's attempt to reach the Copy Machine first, Tasmania Kid got there before him and threw it into the air, allowing Lio Convoy to destroy it with his missiles. The machine's destruction caused Black Lio Convoy to likewise fade away into nothingness.
