More than three decades after his debut, Transformer's Soundwave is mulling a tech spin on its outdated cassette recorder conversion.

A collaboration between US toy maker Hasbro and Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi has led to Soundwave's new transformation into Xiaomi's 7.9 inch, champagne colored tablet computer.

On Tuesday, Xiaomi kicked off a crowdfunding campaign for the new Soundwave figure in which it aims to sell 1,000 action figures at 169 yuan each ($26) in 13 days.
