In the midst of their mission to capture Field Marshall Tannenberg, the Tan Army henchman of the evil General Plastro, and win the war, Green troops keep getting plastered. Plastrified, that is. Plastrification is what happens when Plastic Men spend too much time in the real world. They get stiff and grow a plastic base. Not much help when there's a battle to be fought. Tan troops, however, seem to be able to avoid Plastrification. Sarge, Col. Grimm and Vikki suspect the Tans have some sort of anti-plastrification ingredient.
