Transformers G1 Reissue Cassettes – Decepticon Frenzy & Laserbeak (2018, New Sealed)
Release & Background:
This set was released in 2018 as part of Hasbro’s Walmart-exclusive Transformers Vintage G1 Reissue line. The figures are faithful recreations of the original 1980s G1 cassettes, packaged in retro-style boxes with authentic artwork and detailing. Each cassette transforms from microcassette mode to robot (Frenzy) or condor (Laserbeak) mode, directly referencing the original transformation mechanics and aesthetics.
Packaging:
Factory-sealed sets feature vintage-inspired packaging, classic G1 Transformers branding, and include weapons and accessories just like the originals. These reissues are officially licensed and are not third-party knockoffs or Takara Tomy Asian exclusives.
Description & Features:
- Frenzy: Transforms from cassette to robot; includes signature blasters
- Laserbeak: Transforms from cassette to mechanical bird; comes with twin blasters/backpack
- Both are scaled to fit into G1 (or reissue) Soundwave and compatible with other cassette-deck Transformer
