Toys

Operation Combination

• Battle Gaia (Decepticon, 1992)
  • Accessories: Cannon, pistol

Available only as part of the Battle Gaia giftset, Leyland is a redeco of the Combaticon Swindle, transforming into a XR311 Combat Support Vehicle. He can form an arm or leg to any Scramble City-style combiner, but his standard placement is as the right leg to Battle Gaia.

The same mold is used by Robots in Disguise Rollbar.

Notes

• Leyland was presumably named after the British motor company that manufactured trucks and buses as well as the Land-Rover and other military jeep-style vehicles.
