GPX Makes 'Frenzy' Debut in "Transformers"(Market Wire Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) ST. LOUIS, MO, October 16 / MARKET WIRE/ -- GPX, a premier designer and manufacturer of the consumer electronics industry's most popular and feature-driven audio and video products and brand division of Digital Products International (DPI, Inc.), today acknowledged that its innocent-looking BCDW9815CNP boombox is the same device that changes into one of the DECEPTICONS in this summer's hit movie and new DVD, "Transformers" from DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures, in association with Hasbro, Inc. A member of the evil DECEPTICONS gang, Frenzy(TM) assumes the form of the GPX boombox in order to spy on humans, and then, through the magic of movies, changes shape to become a sinister character in the film. "It's flattering to know that the design of the box was progressive enough to fit into this exciting and action-packed film," said Bill Fetter, CEO of DPI, Inc. In reality, the cool-looking boombox from the movie is part of a full line of affordable and harmless home and portable entertainment products from GPX. In addition to boomboxes and radios, the selection includes CD and DVD players, MP3, iPod players and speaker systems, under-cabinet radios and TVs, digital photo frames and alarm clocks, and party-fun karaoke systems. This fall, GPX will add more than 15 new and upgraded products just in time for the holiday gift-buying season. For more information on GPX and its movie-quality product line visit www.gpx.com.
