Plot
The film begins with Spin and his team of Rollbots battling the Vertex Corporation, which has developed a new weapon that can disable all the Rollbots in Flip City. Spin, who is the leader of the Rollbots, realizes that they need to find a way to stop the Vertex Corporation's weapon before it's too late. They decide to seek help from an old Rollbot named Master Z, who has retired from active duty and is now living in a secret location.

Spin and his team set out on a dangerous journey to find Master Z, facing various challenges along the way. They encounter hostile Rollbots that are loyal to the Vertex Corporation, and they are forced to fight their way through them. Meanwhile, the Vertex Corporation is working on their weapon, and they plan to launch it at a critical moment when the Rollbots are weakest.

As the Rollbots get closer to Master Z's location, they discover that he has been captured by the Vertex Corporation. Spin and his team decide to mount a rescue mission, and they infiltrate the Vertex Corporation's secret facility. They free Master Z, but they are discovered, and a fierce battle ensues. The Rollbots fight bravely against the Vertex Corporation's forces, but they are outnumbered and outgunned. Just as all seems lost, Master Z comes up with a plan to disable the Vertex Corporation's weapon. He sends Spin and his team to execute the plan while he stays behind to buy them time.

Spin and his team race to the Vertex Corporation's weapon, fighting their way through hordes of Rollbots. When they reach the weapon, they find that it's heavily guarded, and they can't disable it from the outside. They realize that they need to enter the weapon to disable it from the inside. Spin and his team enter the weapon, and they face many challenges and obstacles as they make their way to the control room. They finally reach the control room, and Spin successfully disables the weapon, just as the Vertex Corporation is about to launch it.

With the Vertex Corporation's weapon neutralized, the Rollbots are able to defeat their enemies and save Flip City. Master Z is hailed as a hero, and Spin and his team are honored for their bravery and skill. The movie ends with Spin and his team looking out over the city, ready for whatever challenges may come their way next.
