Each figure will come with 'Batteries' that turn into the Piledrivers for BTS-05A (That actually extended but isn't shown) or Cannons/Boosters for BTS-05B.
Nightfang is actually capable of combining with either of the BTS-05A figures in a sort of Micro-Cassette Combiner or Actionmaster Partner fashion too:

Why HasTak couldn't have just done these for their Classics releases of Rumble and Frenzy is beyond me.

[Paulbot]

These look shocking.

Except Nightfang. There's something interesting going on there but it's hard to tell from the drawings.

[Tallestblue]

Those...look...interesting...? I guess. BTW if anyone wants sonicron he's on sale at BBTS for 29.95. Man. I should get one if these are coming out...

[kup]

Nightfang is interesting as we are yet to get a proper 'classics' Ratbat but the other guys are pretty shocking. I am sure that there will be a lot of bashing in the International sites like that exclusive PowerMaster Prime armor that looks real strange.

[Hursticon]

I'm inclined to agree, I think they've got a real winner with Savage and Nightfang especially; if they can manage to sort out the hip region of BTS-05A then I might reconsider, but I'm pretty damn happy with my PE Not-Rumble & Frenzy at the moment. :)

[kaiden]

those humanoid cassettes are so damn ugly. the only redeeming design is nightfang which i can even picture in my head.

[liegeprime]

Nightfang is looking good, well it's just a sketch for now so will wait and see if it's good in the final product, the rest is all rubbish.

[Deonasis]

They are without style like many gobots were. Nightfang tho has it :cool:

[Lord_Zed]

They look too G1, and not in a good way, they don't seem to add much more than a few extra joints.

Nightfang might be ok, but I by far prefer TakToms Rumble and Frenz, while cassettes were cool in the 80's it's all kinda a bit retro now, like in that Robot Chicken skit. I have no problem when Soundwave and the cassettes update their alt modes to something more relevant.

[kup]

I don't think they are too G1 - The G1 cassettes looked a lot better!

[liegeprime]

These look like Rumble Frenzy got attacked by Mugatoo (zoolander reference) fashion. Ick!

[gdmetro]

Hmm I semi-like that not-rat bat. Did not like the Perfect-Effect one.

Other than that, these all look meh.

[SkyWarp91]

G1 Frenzy and Rumble iz where it's all at, them the sexiest cassettes 'round da block.
