I have found the end to the Z-Knight storyline (or one version of it, at least), and it is glorious.

Here's a (slightly tongue-in-cheek but disturbingly accurate) summary:
A mysterious meteor crashes into a forest, so the Metalfeet Northeglaiver and Deviking go to investigate. Suddenly, a GIANT DINOSAUR comes out of the meteor and starts stomping all over the Metalfeet! The 11-metre-tall war machines are no match for a GIANT DINOSAUR, so they send out an SOS signal that catches the attention of Solsaber, the latest 11-metre-tall war machine. The Solsaber arrives too late and angrily slashes at the GIANT DINOSAUR's skin, causing a (rather familiar) machine to appear from inside it...
Then the Solsaber's rival Deathbattler flies in and decides to help the Solsaber defeat the GIANT ROBOT DINOSAUR... by picking it up in an electric net and dropping it in a volcano! But the GIANT ROBOT DINOSAUR absorbs the energy from the lava and counters with a flame attack! The Solsaber narrowly escapes and heads to a temple deep within the Earth. There it awakens the Great Z-Knight, the most powerful of the Armoured Titans, which was sealed away a century ago for fear of its great power. The damaged Solsaber combines with the Great Z-Knight, fully reviving it and transforming it into a Z-KNIGHT WITH WINGS (which look suspiciously like Salamander wings). The Z-KNIGHT WITH WINGS then uses its finishing attack to shoot the head off the GIANT ROBOT DINOSAUR, ending the battle once and for all!
I know this magazine was aimed at Grade 2 students, but still... wow.
