Toys
Power Core Combiners
- Stakeout with Protectobots (Power Core Combiners 5-pack, 2010)
- Part of the third wave of Power Core Combiners 5-pack figures, the Protectobots consist of two ground vehicles and two aircraft. Each one has a square socket for a Power Core Combiner connection; when attached via the blue plugs on a Commander figure, the vehicles automatically transform into a super-robot limb, and snap back to vehicle mode when disconnected. Despite the universal connector, each drone can only form one limb type (but can be swapped from left to right):
- Fighter Jet Drone - Leg (Stakeout's left)
- Helicopter Drone - Arm (Stakeout's left)
