Just a double post to preserve this in case someone ever digs this deep.
For October Guard, there's a Russian Company that makes 1:18 sandbox vehicles called Nordplast. Orion is another company that makes Sand box BTRs that are slightly smaller. |

I didn't really mix Joes with other toys, because I actually tried to stick to the mythos of the comics (Zartan lead the Dreadnoks, Snake Eyes didn't talk, Destro and Baroness were an item, etc).
But I'd use Star Wars or Adventure People vehicles on occasion. Adventure People had some cool stuff. |

I got the bruder vehicles used as a lot including other bruder stuff. I believe though that they are a bit overpriced. The main problem of bruder stuff is their size. They are oversized (the figs fit really well inside though)... If they were a little smaller, I d buy them new and pay their steep price.

I would like to open a can of worms. I know Joe Scale transformers have been debated to death on here, I keep saying I will get to putting together a cast of characters one day. Well recently out of unfortunate impulse I picked up my sons the Titans Return Soundwave My older boy had been asking for a while for a bot mode for the SDCC comic con Hiss tank sound wave
http://news.hisstank.com/wp-content/...ine_300DPI.jpg http://scene7.targetimg1.com/is/imag...t=80&fmt=pjpeg And although it is a "swapformer" as in hey look over there! and you swap toys out and presto! Transformer! It takes nothing away from our intent as the Soundw3ave is a brilliant action figure articulation wise, is a great manageable and seemingly appropriate scale with Joe characters, matches the tank in color nicely and is close enough to mass/ scale to be passable...;. More to come I just don't want to cram this all in one post

Well now that has started it and I want to get together a set of the early transformer character to go along with Joes. I know some of the Over sized KOs are actually Joe -ish scale in alt mode. But we also have a 2YO who is rough on toys and this soundwave / HISS Swapformer is perfect for the three of us to play with.
For Megatron I am considering getting the Combiner wars Leader class Megatron. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6_erum8hfmg/maxresdefault.jpg IN Alt6 mode it may be slightly small, like closer to a Armadillo than a MOBAT. But We can either fudge that aspect when we play or go full on Swapformer with Megs as well by customizing a Cheap Walk Mart or True Heroes tank painting it silver and decaling it. With the new priority being that the bot modes all stand and look good together, with Joe figures. I think this Megs will compliment Soundwave nicely. I know there is aon Oversized KO version of this that actually is close to Joe scale alt mode but the bot wouould be to big, I don't want to get into the money of the big 3p MPPs just yet. So with that plan sort of giving you an Idea of where we are going. I would like to get some suggestions on Swapformer bot modes ( retail US versions if possible due to price and the 2YO needing to play with us) for the other SDCC Joe Formers like Power glide, Shockwave, Jetfire and Hound. I really appreciate the knowledge and experience you guys have in this stuff. Meanwhile if any of you have the Combiner wars leader class Starscream, Skywarp and or Thundercracker... I am considering using those for bot modes and possibly even fudging the Alt modes on those as slightly undersised drone planes for the decepticons. Is there any chance I could wee some pics of those seeker 'cons near some joe stuff?
