5.0 out of 5 stars Great stories from the past!, October 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Transformers 3 Pak Volume 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

These are six episodes of the original Transformers, including five from season two, and "Dark Awakening" from season three. All are in the original formats with NO space-cube junk, and every episode has Optimus Prime. "Dark Awakening" even has the commerical break with Ultra Magnus slipped in. Old Transformer fan, or new, these are worth getting for the memories, or to meet them for the first time. The episodes are: Starscream's Brigade (first Combaticons), A Prime Problem, City of Steel, Dark Awakening (prequel to Return of Optimus Prime), The Search for Alpha Trion (with Elita-1 and the female Autobots), Auto Berserk

3.0 out of 5 stars What a mess!!, November 15, 2000

This review is from: Transformers 3 Pak Volume 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have the set mentioned here. As a fan of the Transformers I was rather anxious to watch them. I was rather disappointed at the misleading title of the box set. It says its a three pack Vol. 1 VHS (and you therefore expect it to be the first three tapes of season 1), not the case however. They are three random tapes of various episodes and seperate seasons. To someone who's new to Transformers this would confuse the living daylights out of them. Personally I hate it when this sort of thing happens and can only imagine that someone was trying to make alot of money with very little thought as to the way they market their product. If you are a fan of the Transformers and watch often than this would be a good investment. If however you are new to Transformers this will only prove to be a disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Transformers 3 Pack Volume 1 is one the best packs!, June 8, 2001

This review is from: Transformers 3 Pak Volume 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Transfomers 3 Pack volume 1 is one the best video packs from the series. Not only does it print randomly selected episodes of the American Transformers cartoon series, it is the first in a series of volumes distributed by Rhino Home Video! The first video contains episodes "A Prime Problem" and "City of Steal". The second video contains episodes " the Search for Alpha Trion" and the post-movie episode "Dark Awakening". Dark Awakening is the prelude to the Return of Optimus Prime two-parter episode. (Transfomers: Volume 7 Kid Rhino) The Third video Video contains episodes Starscream's Brigade and AutoBeserk. There a-lot of mistakes made by Rhino Home Video on this paticular video. The first mistake, The cover on the Video features Rodimus Prime but he is not in this video. The people that packaged the video mistook Rodimus Prime for the other Autobot Red Alert! They both have a similar color scheme (red armor) But are very different Autobots! The second mistake Rhino Home video made is that Starscream's Brigade is actually a two-parter. Instead of AutoBeserk it should have been " The Revenge of Bruticus" episode. After the very last scene where Starscream and the Combaticons are abandoned on the astriod by Megatron, The should have next episode on the video, The Revenge of Bruticus, The combaticons land the astroid on Cybertron ploting their revenge against all the Transformers. Starscream is suppose to leave them to find his way back to Earth. the Autobots are saving the humans on Earth Because the weather temperature keeps climbing,the heat, the hot weather, and the city being infest by Insecticons. The Combaticons bult a device on Cyberton that allows the Earth to fall into the Sun. Optimus Prime and other Autobots, Megatron,Shockwave, and Starscream rush to Cybertron to save Earth from destruction. It was disappointing that this particular video was not handled carefully. Other than that, Volume three still has two of the best episodes from season 2 and I am still going to recommend it. Buy the 3 pack! It's good to have if you were a part of the Cartoons of the 1980s generation.
