Refugees from the 80's

I found these 'robots in disguise' when going through some old boxes in my basement...

The big guy is Soundwave, who transformers into a cassette player, the little ones fold up into tapes, and will fit in his chest. Nostalgia!
You must have had these cool objects as a kid? Don't want to assume anything here. Anyway .... what an awesome cassette player and tapes. I am wondering if they still play? If you were a kid when you got these you had to be the most popular kid on the block!

@365karly1 Yes, these were mine, as a child, in the 80s. The tape player never played, it was the size and shape of those old micro cassettes you usually only ever saw used in an answering machine, but they were just toys, the plastic buttons and volume knob did nothing. The eject button did work, so you could really put the "tapes" in him.
