ok i was just thinking, since you know cassette players are out of style, what if they turned them into videogame system, like ps2, gcn x-box, gbds, psp, and the tapes would be games, or dvd players? i think the x-box would be good though simply because it's big and bulky

Blaster could only ever be some loud obnoxious ghetto blaster i think. but im digging the soundwave update. interesting.

I think if they turned into laptops would be a new fit for soundwave, or maybe a satalite..

Nah...

CD/Minidisk players, or portable DVD players. Prolly minidisk players -- they are popular in Japan, after all.

The issue is A) licencing, and B) inatimate objects go against the current "Grain" of what people percieve Transformers as, hence evidenced by Lazerbeak in the Armada line.... or the "Role play" items (tho I love my personal megatron sword =) )..

Athenor

well i like inatimate object tf, i think they're better hidden like that cartoon with the vehicles that were regular items like an alarm clock and stuff, can't for the life of me think of the name, and with them been game systems or even laptops add on accessories could be the tapes

if youre talking about the alternator/binaltech line

i thought big SUVs with big loud stereo systems would be good for soundwave and blaster.

soundwave is supposed to be able to SPY on things, so how would he do that as a huge SUV?

Computer Warriors? They had toys too, I used to have some.

What, don't you watch the movies? FBI/CIA/Secret Service do that all the time. Of course you can spy on someone in big, black, imposing SUV's with full tinted windows and communications equipment up top and nobody'll notice .

How about this:

MP3/radio devices for Soundwave and Blaster.

Their cohorts could be flash memory sticks that transform into robots, animals, etc.

That's the only thing I see that would work- DVD/CDs would be impossible.

heh.. I used to have the pepsi can that turned into a jet.. they were quite kewl...

Vehicular alt modes, but with a loud stereo/communications theme.

The big black stylee CIA/MIB blacked out crysler voyager would be perfect for a Soundwave Binaltech, Nice idea! There is somethign sinister about soundwave, and theres something sinister about those vans.It might have lots of space inside leading to folding panels in robot form, but, what could you keep inside the van eh? Binaltech Cassetecons of some sort!

Genius.
