What's their hurry? The band is playing The Touch, so it must be something important.

The Autobot Mini-Cassettes are Autobots who, on Earth, transform into analog audio cassettes. They can fit into Blaster's chest compartment, though their apparent relationship to Blaster varies depending on continuity.

The Autobots have no choice but to strike back at these Decepticon techniques of stealth, building a force of cassette Transformers of their own, with Blaster as their guardian.Teletraan II, Secret Files of Teletraan II

Notes

• For the original draft of The Transformers: The Movie, it was intended that the Autobot Mini-Cassettes would be "CUBBIE, a lion, STRIPES, a tiger, STINGER, a scorpion and BOLTS, a small, tough robot." This plan was maintained for a few revisions, until eventually Stinger and Stripes were scrapped, Cubbie was renamed to Steeljaw, Bolts was split into Eject and Rewind, and the rhinoceros Ramhorn was added to the mix.
