He's quick with a gun, and his job ain't done.

• Psychobat (Micron, 2016)

• ID number: TMC 06
• Release date: April 29, 2016
• Accessories: "Psycho Armor" sprue (double-blaster, spearhead, left & right large wing-blades, left & right wingtip-blades, left & right energy-bursts)

As part of the first and only wave of single-pack Microns in the "Prime of Micron" portion of Adventure (released between waves 14 and 15 of the line), Psychobat is a redeco and slight retooling of Robots in Disguise Ratbat. He transforms from "bullet mode" to bat-robot and back with a mostly-one-step geared autotransformation. Like all "Torpedo" Mini-Cons, he designed so his bullet mode can be launched by the Deployer Fracture toy. His body has been retooled to add a 5mm post to his bat-butt, which lets his bullet mode be mounted on a larger robot (or hand-held) with compatible post-holes. However, this post sticks out the back of his bullet mode like a thruster, which limits his non-ridiculous-looking mounting options somewhat. Makes him a handy sword tho!

He comes with an armor sprue (which has had a 5mm post-hole added to it) that contains several snap-off pieces of plug-on armor and weapons. These armor pieces do not have to be taken off for transformation or to fit into Fracture's launcher. Since the armor is the same as Ratbat's, the large wing-blades can be used as part of the Mini-Con armor shark.
