The Rallybots are an Autobot drone subteam from Power Core Combiners.
You gotta eat.

Commanded by Double Clutch, the Rallybots specialize in sowing confusion in the Decepticon ranks. Each of the drones are outfitted with scrambling equipment to disrupt enemy scanners and communications, though their stunt-driving capabilities are already quite a distraction.

The Rallybots include

  • The blue Race Car Drone
  • The orange Tuner Drone
  • The red Drag Racer Drone
  • The black Street Racer Drone

Power Core Combiners

  • Double Clutch with Rallybots (Commander Class, 2010)
Part of the second wave of Power Core Combiners 5-Packs, the Rallybots are a set of four drones that came with their Commander Double Clutch. Each one automatically transforms from vehicle to limb using Automorph Technology when clipped onto Double Clutch. When detached, they transform back to vehicle mode. Each drone also has a fold-out Mini-Con Powerlinx plug. Despite the universal connector, each drone can only form one limb type (but can be swapped from left to right):
  • Drag Racer Drone — Leg (Double Clutch's right)
  • Race Car Drone — Arm (Double Clutch's right)
  • Street Racer Drone — Leg (Double Clutch's left)
  • Tuner Drone — Arm (Double Clutch's left)
Design flaws have unfortunately plagued the initial run of the Rallybots: thanks to a too-short spring loaded "arm" and some odd internal mechanisms, the red Drag Racer Drone does not fully automorph when attached; only its top panel rises up, with the grey panel on the car's underside having to be manually clicked back into place (moving the car's hood in the process). Later releases gave the drone a lengthened tab added to the end of the grey "arm" that raised the panel on the underside of the car in place, which somewhat —but not entirely— corrects the manual automorph issue.
This mold-set was used to make Racemaster's "Prime Mode" drone-limbs. The Race Car Drone and Tuner Drone molds were also used to make two Stunticons.


  • Power Core Combiners Special Value Offer (2011)
Double Clutch and the Rallybots were also released as part of a Walmart-exclusive Black Friday value pack, combining a 5-pack team with a Commander 2-pack via packaging tape and a couple of stickers, and costing all of ten dollars. Wow.
Double Clutch has been found packed with the Huffer/Caliburst, Salvage/Bomb-Burst, Steelshot/Beacon, Undertow/Waterlog, and Windburn/Darkray 2-packs.
