| '''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination''''' (戦え! 超ロボット生命体トランスフォーマー 合体大作戦 ''Tatakae! Chō Robot Seimei Tai Transformers Gattai Dai Sakusen'') was a franchise that ran throughout 1992 in Japan. It marks the final vintage ''Generation 1'' series released in Japan, as the line was cancelled following ''Operation Combination'', not to be revived until 1995 and ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|G-2]]''.
| |
| | |
| The franchise consisted of:
| |
| | |
| *A [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (toyline)|toyline]]
| |
| *A [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Operation Combination (story page)|series of story pages]]
| |
| | |
| Operation Combination takes place after ''[[Transformers: Return of Convoy (franchise)|Return of Convoy]]'' and focuses on several [[combiner]] warriors, both [[Autobot]] and [[Decepticon]]. The series is unusual in that it doesn't make an effort to introduce brand new leaders for each faction. Years later, origins would be provided for the new Micromaster characters through the ''[[The Transformers: Micromaster|Micromaster]]'' series, and the scenario would be fleshed out for its 20th anniversary in the contemporaneously-set ''[[Transformers United EX|United EX]]'' storyline.

| ==Story==
| |
| Decepticon High Regent [[Scrash (G1)|Scrash]] sends [[Battle Gaia]] and the [[Jet Corps]] to plunder [[Earth]]'s energy. The Autobots, headlined by [[Guard City]], defend the planet. The storyline covers only a single battle fought between the two groups, taking place in Earth's orbit.
| |
| | |
| ''Operation Combination'' is a continuation of the animated series continuity. However, nothing of ''Operation Combination'' was ever actually ''animated''. Instead, the stories were told exclusively through "[[story page]]s" in ''[[TV Magazine]]''.
