G1 Retro Reviews - Heavy Metal War - Season 1 Finale

[@noonespecial9994]

Soundwave petting Ravage is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series.

[@LowellLucasJr.]

Always thought it was dark for Prime to toss the Deceptions into the volcano....little would I realize how much darker it would get 2 years later with a movie.....( AWESOME!!!)

[@dontemorgan1517]

As a kid it blew my mind for thd first time a subgroup combine into a giant robot. The constructicons and devastator were the powerful combiner at the time until later down he became a joke and have one of the most confusing backstory.

[@kellogglaeverbaum9989]

I like to believe the decepticons made the body's for the constructicons in the tunnels then put in the personality modules of the 6 like starscream did with the combaticons

[@robstrunk817]

I can accept that explanation for constructions. That should be canon

[@antonissa8345]

I think that ‘constructicons’ also apply to pretty much every green and purple decepticon construction vehicle

[@Gold_Bee10]

Yep you are 100% correct

[@larrychilders6599]

Or that the Constructions built Megatron unaware of what he was gonna do, maybe they were built kinda like the combaticons

[@johnhubert8253]

Them building Megatron wasn't special since he was probably one of many robots that they created in that era, the fact that he became so important later on wasn't due to being built my them.

[@infiniteoctopaw]

Ok, so for the rumble and frenzy colours. My head canon is the Rumble is red and Frenzy is blue. HOWEVER every time they are coloured wrong it’s just the twins swapping paint jobs to confuse others as a sort of harmless prank.

[@wulfrik86b70]

That final line from negation has stuck in my mind ever since I was a kid… That and snarl saying “we dino might them to pieces” Definitely should do retro review of starsscreams brigade dude

[@MySkinnydip]

I wish they showed more interaction between Soundwave and his roommates! I loved him and laserbeak in Cyberverse.

[@onetrackmind3558]

Actually what I'm thinking is that the Constructicons were actually damaged when arrived on Earth, Hauler did say something about "I didn't join this outfit to be a dumptruck". So they all were good, then they built Megatron and after seeing the damage he did to Sentinal Prime (the blue transformer from 5 Facss of Darkness) and left him after that and yes one of the cranes is the orange autobot and the other hauler idk. Then Megatron reprogram them.

[@rodimusunicronus2089]

this episode would have made megatron our first ever triple changer, turning into a seeker with his fusion cannon underneath his jet mode (like the titan return blitzwing repaint toy)

[@shadowhunter1410]

I can kinda explain the 5 faces of darkness scene it could be just megatron being repaired after his run in with omega supreme on cybertron and if we go by the marvel comic where optimus had some of the troops stored on memory or data diskes It might stand to reason that the same thing applies here where megatron had the same technology and built new bodies for the constructicons.

[@vxrdrummer]

I think this is one of the best, if not the best G1 episode. So much so that I have even watched your review a few times now as well!!!

[@Arvegtor]

I think that creation of Megatron was simply a paid job the Constructicons were hired for. Then 6 of them kept working on the Crystal city until Megatron reprogrammed them. "The Story of Omega Supreme" also mentions Omega following them in space for a long time until they came to Earth, which works with them being active in "Desertion of the Dinobots". I believe their ship crash landed on Earth somewhere after "Countdown to Destruction" and Starscream was assigned to finding and fixing them + building a temporary base near the Ark which they use in this episode (which explains where he was during the Insecticons episode).

[@akbarakbar8710]

Hi Ultra Primal My Theory is that the constructions on Earth were clones of the original, I guess Megatron had their brains and sparks because the ones on Cybertron must've been damaged in battle, and Megatron thought they could be very useful so he rebuilt them. And are you related to Rodimus Primal cause you both have similar names.

[@JackieMReacts]

i was thinking they were disassembled and then rebuilt at a later time

[@akbarakbar8710]

@@JackieMReacts It's possible

[@Thunderwing88]

My head cannon - The Secret of Omega Supreme: Reprogrammed with the robo smasher, with no effort on animation to give them Cybertronin alt modes FFOD: Repairing Megatron Heavy Metal War: Given earth vehicle modes.

[@shadowz6848]

I haven't watched the retro reviews cuz I know all the episodes but I watched this and that intro was awesome

[@MySkinnydip]

Tf has the best intro songs! Even Rescue bots and RBA

[@fantasykaijugeeks5452]

Well, to be honest, the constructions could have also been build by other green and purple robots as Cybertron did have a cast system may be the ones who built Megatron who the ones who also built the Constructions we know of?

[@PringleZilla]

I can't wait to see you review season 2 of g1

[@GoGojiraGo]

SKywarp: "You should see me do that when I've got my power!" Shut up, Skywarp, you only used it three times in the entire G1 series.

[@megatron5647]

I still love the part when megatrons eyes are glowing

[@LowellLucasJr.]

*Yeah...with the Constructicons building Megatron...I figured it was a rumor. * There's other sects of constructicons outside of the main 6. *the constructicons are no better than Humpty Dumpty and could've reused the 'other' members body parts. * The other insecticons memebers weren't bought out by hasbro/takara quite yet...

[@joevincojohanes7118]

the finale

[@cinosthewerehog7333]

Good theory but sorta like Rodimus Primal theory of the Constructicons of having been normal Cybertronians but have their body rebuilt on Earth andd the two additional Constructicons are Hauler & Grave Digger, but I respect your theory.

[@nourzahran3765]

The intro is nice

[@hotrodsreviews5148]

I would say it was a pretty cool episode

[@keldeostudies149]

Well maybe there were many types of constructicons and not just the main combiner team sense hauler toy is in constructicon green, and maybe those seven constructicons were evil and the rest like scrapper team weren't so they help build megatron robo smasher to reprogram the rest of the constructicons and other cybertronians

[@graymanmedia]

Ron Watt did it better, but you Constructicon Theory make since. Just like the idea that all Seeker Clones aren't just nameless Jets built on mass because the Starscream model was worth duplicating.

I wonder if any Autobots listen to what Starscream was saying.

[@blueraccoon1088]

2:41 that hit long haul

[@plantainsame2049]

I have a head cannon that even in Universe people can't tell if the blue ones Rumble and the red ones frenzy or not that those two intentionally swap paint jobs occasionally just to f*** with people

[@slappybio1686]

12:36 Devastator: ow my wrecking balls

[@stevenkitchen1482]

Swoop wasn’t invented at the time of this episode. There were only 3 dinobots.

[@joseluissifuentes8639]

Now I imagine that Optimus has the spirit bomb

[@uberkirbeeh7954]

Armada Oppy has something similar to that, but it's more like a Naruto pray beam than a spirit bomb

[@IndyCrewInNYC]

For me, the Constructicon origin with Omega is the one that has always been Canon.

[@Fandom_Switcher123]

1:22 woah did anyone see that? the decepticon logo turns red.

[@autobotleane8621]

Huffer he is my favorite character I am a fan ❤️❤️😍😍😍😃😃

[@nterratory9452]

Are you going to end G1 with the movie?

[@UltraPrimal]

No, I'll cover the movie after season 2. Then I'll do season 3 and 4. And then Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory, and Zone. Although, if I can find my old copy of Scramble City, I might do that in between season 2 and the movie.

Would you rather Biggus Dickus for the new Autobot.

No, but I have weirdly heard his name come up a lot recently.🤔

[@josephetienne-guzzi4258]

Why couldn't G1 Galvatron break out of the ice, like Megatron did in the season 1 finale? My best guess is that his memory processors are still damaged after the 1986 Movie, so he probably forgot he can do that. Michael Bay Megatron, I don't give a shit. Just giving my honest opinion here, so anyone who enjoys the Transformers Movies made by Michael Bay, Don't tear me apart just for giving my opinion. At least explain why you think I should give a damn, but you will need some ACTUALLY good information to do so, and since this is Megatron from the Michael Bay movies, Good luck with that. P.s. If Michael Bay, or anyone who worked with Michael Bay on the movies are reading this, I'm not sorry. I get it that u guys were trying to make great money making films, but all I can say is, Less MICHAEL BAY EXPLOSIONS, More New and Unique Transformers Designs, make the Transformers be ON Cybertron for once, stop making the human cast more and more IRRITATING, and have better writing.
