BMOG Toys

Multi-Function Pterattacktyl are characters from the BMOG (Bio-Mechanical Ordnance Gestalts) toy line. They are not homages to any existing characters, but meant to be used as either a stand-alone figures, or as accessories to any toy capable of using 5mm port accessories, such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Transformers, Zoids Blox, and many others.

Development

The Non-Dino Squad was designed by Trent Troop. They were referred to as the Notasaurs in early development.

The names of the Non-Dino Squad members were revealed in a BMOG Kickstarter update in November 2013. Featherblight and the Non-Dino Squad were to be part of a stretch goal if the Kickstarter raised at least $31,000.

The package art for Ursenal and Mant-Axe had teaser co-sells for Featherblight and the Non-Dino Squad.

A black set of the Non-Dino Squad was part of the unsuccessful Lost Protectors Kickstarter campaign. It was to be a bonus item for anyone who pledged at least $78. A glow-in-the-dark Non-Dino Squad called the Atomic Dinotrouble set was to be a $12 add-on for anyone who pledged $39 or more.

The Multi-Function Pterattacktyl was released on Shapeways in March 2017.

Fictional biography

BMOG creatures were brought to life when weapons made by a group of evil interdimensional arms dealers were exposed to the power of the last world seed.

Multi-Function Pterattactyls are versatile BMOGs similar to the Earth rhamphorhynchus in general body structure, able to serve as pick-axes, crossbows or laser blasters depending on their partners' needs. Awkward on land, they routinely form partnerships with land-based BMOGs, like Ursenal-types or Synaxids for mutual protection.
