Title:
Frenzy Fast Action Battler FAB Carded
Description:
Disc Blast Decepticon Frenzy (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
Accessories: Launching disc.
Released in the third wave of Fast Action Battlers toys, "Disc Blast” Frenzy transforms into a two-speaker stereo CD/cassette/radio, with "Frenzy 97.7” on the small painted screen and two Decepticon insignias on his radio mode, with one being sideways due to being used for robot mode. His posable antenna is made of soft plastic and is mounted via ball joint and socket, although the angle that the antenna is molded at prevents it from straightening up in radio mode. In both modes, he can launch a disk (sculpted to resemble his bladed shuriken-things) from his chest/stereo-mode CD slot via pressure-launch when a button on his back is pressed; in robot mode, this button is pressed by pushing in a large chunk of radio which then pushes the normal button.Despite Fast Action Battlers being a simpler toyline for younger children, Frenzy is fairly complicated to transform, with his limbs needing to fold up and stack in a certain order to allow clearance for half his mass to flip around into the intended mode.Frenzy is obviously fairly inaccurate to the CGI model due to actually having to turn into something specific (which the CGI model was not actually designed to do), having massive amounts of bulky kibble. It is also completely off-model to the movie radio, which is probably due to the figure having been designed before the character’s final alt mode was determined.
