hi i am new and had a question. i am looking for a set of transforming vehicles with drivers in the 1:18th scale. the vehicles need to combine to become something bigger (another vehicle, a base or even a mech/robot/zoid) i know that voltron 3 has this available but they are cats, i need vehicles. i also know that gi joe battle force 2000's vehicles transform into a base but i think i would prefer a large freaking robot. if anyone can think of anything please let me know and please provide pics.

thanks,
jon

There is a vehicle Voltron, there are also Transformers combiners that are vehicles, like Menasor, Devastator, Defensor, Superion, and Computron. If you do some internet digging, those may be to your liking.

There is practically nothing in 1:18 scale. Hasbro's Battle Ops Bumblebee was very close, but he doesn't combine with anything to make a bigger robot. There is also Knock Off Transformers that were oversized and fit close to 1:18 scale. We know of ROTF Optimus Prime and Ironhide, but again they don't combine with anything to form a bigger robot and they are expensive. There is also a DOTM Megatron, it's oversized, but still way too small to be 1:18.

That big Voltron Mattel put out last year had pilots that were in 1:18 scale, they did fit inside the Lions, but those Lions were nowhere near the size they should have been to be in 1:18 scale.

Unfortunately, there's not really anything that has come out that contains all the elements you're looking for in one toy or set of toys.

Some sets are great vehicles-to-robots-to-super-robot (Transformers, Go-Bots) or vehicles-to-super-robot (Voltron, Go-Bots), but they're definitely not 1:18th and some can't even hold figures of any scale. Some are great vehicles that can hold 1:18th scale figures, but don't combine into anything (or it's just a larger vehicle or base - not a robot).
