Free-Combination

This article is about the Operation Combination ability. For the prototype of the Scramble City gimmick, see Jizai Gattai.

The many uses of Free Combination, including "Christmas Tree Formation".

Free-Combination (自由合体 Jiyū Gattai) is a special technique used by both Autobot and Decepticon combiners, allowing them to swap the component robots making up their limbs. It is different from Scramble Power in that it allows a certain level of autonomy to the individual robots, so that they can rearrange themselves when their unique skills are needed, forming special formations.

The only known Free-Combiners are Guard City and Battle Gaia. Operation Combination

Notes

• The term probably derives from the canceled Diaclone subline Jizai Gattai (自在合体, lit. "Limitless Combination"), from which the original Protectobot and Combaticon assets were sourced.
