The 1-Meter Optimus Speaker Tower - questions

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

2 - Would you consider it a toy with an electronic gimmick, or electronic merchandise?

This, because...

It's primary purpose is to be a speaker unit, however, Music Label Soundwave & the Rumble/Frenzy earphones, as well as Device Label Ravage, Cheetor & Tigatron (plus the Blaster USB hub and Grimlock & Trypticon Mouses) I think would be seen by most as a toy with an electronic gimmick... yes/no?

...this.

The device label TFs seem to me to be TFs first, with the functional device aspect as their 'gimmick'. Bassimus Prime there 1: doesn't transform, 2: is too large to be 'played with', and 3: has it's primary function as speaker rather than plaything. It's a speaker shaped like Optimus Prime, rather than a toy with a speaker component like Music Label Convoy.


That said, I could go for something like that if they came in Blaster and Soundwave/Soundblaster styles. Maybe a surround sound setup with some of the mini-cassettes for smaller speakers.
