Kre-O Micro-Change Combiner Terrorcons! Rippersnapper, Windrazor Sinnertwin, and Hun-grrr combining into Abominus! Love the Terrorcons, just a shame my boy Blot isn't represented here!
The Transformers Kre-O Microchange Combiners were such a cool series of toys!
From left to right we have Power Surge, Liftoff, Farside, and Lugmutt. They combine into Volcanicon!
Microchange figures are so fun~

Deskbots today are those G1 predator Combiners, the Stupendous Predacons! :decepticon:
Razorclaw, Rampage, Divebomb, Headstrong and Tantrum (aka Torox when licensing issues arise) form the mighty Predaking!
These here are the Knock-Off (KO) version of Hasbro's 2017 Titan-class release, shamelessly copied and -how dare they- improved upon by Third Party sensations, Wei Jiang. Wings with separate 'feathers'! Fully articulated fingers (actually the best TF hands I own in that regard)! Shoulder Blunderbusses instead of those nice slender particle lances....
And all for the low, low cost of (presumably) cheaper plastic. Talking of cost, I bought this set, new in 2019, for about 1/3 of the Hasbro set. It even has the Onyx Matrix Prime Master figure (see photos).
But you can't deny how awesome this set looks in combined mode. Unusually for me, this photo shoot is the first time I've ever sat and got to know the individual team members! He came out of the box four years ago into Predaking mode and has been decorating various lounges ever since!
Ps: some weapons didn't arrive with the set, something eBay tells me was not uncommon. No X-Ray cannon for Granty (or Rampage tail) but the sword makes up for it....somewhat.
Regardless all his faults, he's a brilliant and beloved addition to my collection. 
Enjoy the photos.

Deskbot today is the Elita-1 based Combiner, Elita Infinite!
I'm flying out to the US this Christmas so that left me with a dilemma. No point taking all my pressies with me, and waiting would be cruel and unusual, so the solution was simple; all this week I'm treating myself to one a day, Advent Calendar style!
Elita-1 (Elita One, not Minus One) and her two sisters-in-arms are my big gift to myself this year. 3/5ths of the girl-power combiner, Orthia, but who adopt the name Elita Infinite if paired with any other Transformers (Like Jazz and Wheeljack in the photos here). The fun thing about Elita Infinite is they are most likely to become some degree of non-binary Combiner (Nonbiner?), at least one fifth or her being female in any quintuple. Gender-fluid combiner representation, hoooo!
It was fortunate finding Elita-1, Moonracer and Novastar all available from the same vendor, one of those nice Collecting happenstances that occurs now and again. They all have Toyhax stickers pre-applied too, adding to their visual and collector appeal. But only Primus knows if I'm ever likely to land the rare Lancer and the rarer-than-rare Greenlight to complete fabled Orthia.
