:''Micromaster Combiners are pairs of Transformers from the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

Most [[Micromaster]]s function just like a typical larger-scaled Transformer: one robot mode, one vehicle mode.  However, some transform into only half a vehicle, and must combine with a partner to form a complete vehicle mode.  These Transformers are known as '''Micromaster Combiners'''.

Micromaster Combiner pairs typically include a front-end member and a back-end member.  The connection points between the pairings are wired such that ''any'' front-end combiner can join with ''any'' rear-end combiner.  In addition to the childish innuendos that this inevitably suggests, it also can result in the formation of some ''extremely'' bizarre vehicle combinations.

==Fiction==
===Dreamwave continuity===
A grayish-blue Micromaster seen only from the back was among the crowd relaxing in a neutral bar in [[Little Iacon]].  Some have speculated this may have been [[Cement-Head]] or [[Terror-Tread]]. {{storylink|The Gray Race}}

{{note|Apart from this, the Micromaster Combiners were curiously absent from [[Dreamwave]]'s [[Micromasters]] comic, which is the only fiction that most of the 1990 Micromasters ever appeared in.}}

:The Micromaster Combiners were sold in carded "squads" with six Transformers to a squad, making up three vehicles.  The pairings allowed much longer vehicle forms than the typical Micromaster, allowing such alternate forms as tractor-trailers and a hovercraft.  Many of the vehicle modes, however, were fanciful at best.

:Each Micromaster Combiner has a standardized post and hole on one end, allowing them to plug into any other Micromaster Combiner in vehicle mode.  Of course, you're only supposed to combine front-end guys with back-end guys... but who can resist the absurdity of creating a flying dump truck or a truck with two cabs? As a side effect of the combination system, many of the Micromaster Combiners are stuck with vehicle forms that are utterly useless without their partners, such as half of a space shuttle, the container portion of a dump truck, or the trailer of a truck.

:Several of these molds were redeco'd and sold with transformable battle rigs as the [[Micromaster Transport]]s.  Each transport has ports that allow a Micromaster Combiner to plug into the ends. Additionally, the Autobot [[Battlefield Headquarters]] and the Decepticon [[Anti-Aircraft Base]] were commanded by a pair of unique Micromaster Combiners each.
