They are not an homage to any existing characters, but meant to be used as either 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.

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

Fictional biography
The Non-Dino Squad 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. They are members of the Augmentoids and rivals to the evil Featherblight. Slashback turns from dimetrodon into an axe. Splashpoint turns from ichthyosaurus into a pistol and the Multi-Function Pterattacktyl turns from a pterodactyl into a crossbow or pickaxe. It has been suggested that they hate being mistaken for dinosaurs.
