Call of the Primitives is a standout episode from Transformers: Generation 1 (Season 3, Episode 27), which originally aired in 1987. In this episode, a mysterious entity named Tornedron, created by the godlike Primacron, begins wiping out entire planets and Transformer factions. Recognizing the danger, the ancient Oracle summons all "primitive" Transformers—those with beast modes like the Dinobots, Predacons, Terrorcons, and others to stop this threat. During the finale, the Predacons unite to form the power combiner Transformers character Predaking, showcasing one of his earliest animated appearances.
Hasbro brings its fury and power to life with its new Transformers Takara Tomy AM-T02 Predaking figure. Coming in at 11.8" tall, this figure will feature all 5 combiner figures: Razorclaw, Rampage, Divebomb, Headstrong, and Tantrum. Predaking will feature an impressive number of weapons, including blasters and swords, to help get the job done. Original Japanese-language packaging and instructions are also included, along with a massive $439.99 price tag. Pre-orders are already live on Hasbro Pulse with a late June 2026 release date.
