The Transformers 1984 -- 1987 [Season 3, Volume 3, Disc 9] Episode 91: Call of the Primitives  by AverageMansReviews














Review Time: this episode is top-notch entertainment

Warning: there is death, colourful and flashing effects or just to cover my back something to these effects in this episode; if anyone is wondering why I say something to the effects it just covers me if I should receive any backlash in the future.

Storyline/Back stories/Origin storylines: the storyline is well like every other component or element to this episode is fully packed with back stories in the dialogue exchanges or the back stories and origin storylines come to the viewers via storyteller with mental imagery [yes I am trying to put this down without telling you too much, so all I can say here is if or when you come to watch this episode this will make better sense after you have seen this episode or unless you have seen this episode before, consequently you would have an idea of what I am referring to.]

Action sequences/Artistic visions: now not to repeat myself here but individually or going hand-in-hand these two components are fully packed powerful, highly imaginative and highly creative as we have ongoing carnage everywhere we the audience look

Character developments: it doesn't matter what insignia these characters have on them if they are Primitives be them the Dinobots or the Predacons they will answer the call being sent, this is worthwhile pointing out that even though all of these Primitive characters are answering this call they still have their individual personalities and so on, so what I am basically saying here is this; even though they are heading towards this place they still don't like each other even if they have the same insignia they still don't like one another on the Decepticons side of things, which taking this option with the character developments has to be given praise, because they could have chosen the much lazier option of just all these characters being like zombies being drawn to this place, yes they are still being drawn to this place anyway but as you will see without giving too much away it isn't exactly a smooth ride.

Bloopers: so still without giving too much away we have Grimlock Blasting is way out of where he is, but he is not in his robot mode so how can he use his handheld weapon to get out of this location? [Yes there was no transformation sound effects, just in case you were thinking he transformed at any time] and in the same sequence the voice-over/sound effects doesn't match up with what is happening on screen at that time, so basically we have Grimlock with voice-over/sound effects giving the impression he is shaking his head clear but on screen he is perfectly still, on a quick side note if I haven't referenced this before or if I have some time ago just to cover my back again in the future from any backlash as it relates to the bloopers I haven't always brought them up just in case someone says "You haven't said this or you haven't pointed out that blooper."

This episode receives: 10/10, this is one of those occasions where looking back I just wonder if a two-parter episodes option should have been taken here that is how much the viewers get in this episode that it would have comfortably taken over a second one without interrupting the chaotic nature of this episode it just means they could have had more time and fun with everything, but nonetheless this is the only mark I had in mind after viewing this episode
