    Mine fits well in the vintage and reissue Soundwave.

    The only cassette that ever had issues fitting into any of the players was Beast Box (or was it Squawktalk?). Something about the design adding some extra ridges onto the side that make it too wide to fit properly. That one, whichever it was, fits perfectly in the Soundblaster and reissue ones, though, because the deeper tape door modified the mechanism slightly and hence is ever so slightly wider.

    That is my understanding of it. Any issues with fitting all come from the last wave of US cassettes, the early ones all fit fine to my knowledge.

    You can be forgiven for it. They're both a shade of lavendar.

    I believe it was Squaktalk that didn't fit the original Soundwave, but it's good to know he'll fit in the reissue, I'd like to get him someday.

    i don't think i couldn't get any of the G1 tapes inside soundwave. even sqwaktalk and BB. They may have been tougher to get in , but they fit.
