We have been getting more and more updates from BTS Toys in regards to their upcoming Tremor and Frequency figures! Now, our very own Protoman has been given an advance look at these figures, and provides us with a video review:

That's how I've been doing it, but I haven't tried actually clipping the hand on the piledriver, at first glance it didn't look like it would fit, so I've just got it more resting against the hand.
Good to know, thanks!

The piledrivers do attach very securely. Look very closely at the one pic in the instructions. It's really hard to see, but they show the hand gripping the outside of the piledriver. The hand is then at a 90 degree angle with the back of the hand viewable from the front of the piledriver.

Based mainly on this review, I picked these up this week, and I like them.
They are a little goofy looking, mainly in the hips, and I do wish the pile drivers attached more securely, and the above comments about the backpack guns are a good point. But, I'm happy with them. They're decent enough for what they are, and met my expectations, as set by the review, so I'm happy. I have the Yin/Yang set, and I'd totally buy another repaint of them, too.

Got them today. They are cheap crap. Two of the pile drivers don't even work, one of them is permanently glued shut, and the final insult is that they don't even fit into my Sonicron.

Gotta admit, I like the box they come in more than Frenzy and rumble themselves.

That's what kills it for me. Plus backpack guns would help flesh out the upper torso and divert attention away from the hips. Is there at least connector points on the back to add a substitute for them?

No backpack guns? And they were going for a G1 look? Argh

For the price, I might check them out but I still say they could've been a LOT better than this.

BigBadToyStore got some info, it seems that BTS only made 1000 of these and the last bunch left the factory today, so whatever get sold from TFsource, BBTS, ect will be the last of it.

Whoever buys a set and only wants one, I'll be happy to buy the other.

Guess it's love it or hate it for this one =P
Valkysas
Hell, the G1 figures look better than these.
Robogeek28
Yeah same here.

While I am on a spending freeze pending Botcon I do have to say despite the waist that I dislike I am tempted to pick these and Sonicron up at Botcon

Really glad I ordered these. Also really glad that they will be arriving much sooner than I had expected.
These guys look great. Although I'll probably remove the BTS logo from the pile drivers.

These look like absolute garbage.

Frequenzy is blue, Tremor is red.
Omnus
Based on the pictures from a couple of days ago, no. It also didn't look like you could kitbash holes for them, either, due to the placement of screws.
The only way to place anything on the back of these figs based on the photos is to kitbash something to fit into two pretty small holes that are on the upper portion of the back of the torso.
And you get that answer from…?
Deceptigtar
wait how do you have the black sonicron? whats the deal with that?
also kabaya frenzy/rumble?
