Spotted Online – BTS Toys Nightfang
When the PerfectEffect Transformers Ratbat-inspired Kingbat (review here) was released I just knew I’d be getting one. Unfortunately, that toy was a bit of a disappointment and not anywhere near as cool as their Rumble and Frenzy-inspired Shadow Warrior toys (review here). So there I was still in search of an updated Ratbat.
Well, that update may be happening. TFW2005 reports that the new Rumble and Frenzy-inspired Tremor and Frequenzy (available for pre-order at BBTS are just the first in a “Minions” series. A series that includes Nightfang.
Fantastic transformation design and a great look to this Ratbat-like unofficial Transformers toy. The only thing that has me a bit concerned is that this company’s Soundwave-based design, Sonicron, was so annoying to transform that I’ve never transformed him all of the way from robot to video camera. The plastics and work feels generally okay, but some of the parts stick a bit more than I like and I’m unwilling to force the toy for fear of breaking it.
I hope these guys have learned a lot and that Nightfang is every bit as awesome as a toy as it looks in this transformation sequence image.

After getting burned by Sonicron and Grand Patriot, I am going to wait for some reviews on this. It looks interesting but if it is as fragile to transform as Sonicron, it is going to be a pass.
