November 6 is Stranger Things Day, the date that marks when Will Byers first vanished into the Upside Down and kicked off a pop culture phenomenon that continues to unite fans around the world. To celebrate the occasion, and ahead of the fifth and final season of the hit Netflix series, Hasbro has revealed an all-new Transformers x Stranger Things Collaborative crossover: Freakwency and 8-Trax.
Inspired by the mysterious WSQK van seen in the official teaser for the upcoming season, Freakwency converts from a 6-inch robot into van mode in 16 steps. His companion, 8-Trax, transforms from 8-track tape to hawk mode in 8 steps and can store inside Freakwency's chest while in tape mode. Even the included chicken accessory converts into a blaster in 6 steps.

Available for preorder exclusively through Target and Hasbro Pulse beginning November 6, 2025, this set is priced at $57.99 and is recommended for ages 8 and up. The Transformers x Stranger Things Collaborative "Freakwency and 8-Trax" is scheduled to release on June 1, 2026, giving fans plenty of time to gear up for the final season of the Netflix phenomenon.
This latest addition to the Transformers Collaborative line brings together two fan-favorite worlds and offers a fun new twist for collectors of both franchises.

And the bird being an 8-track, would that make him Laserbeak's and Buzzsaw's ancestor?
