Space Commander Jeep - Robot Changers
Originally designed by Takatoku in Japan for their Battle Armored Battalion Dorvack line and sold as 'Mugen Calibur', the model was licensed to MARK who made smaller, plastic versions for Select to be released as 'Wheels'.
MARK also released Wheels for their Robot Changers line sold in Europe renamed to, 'Space Commander Jeep'.
When Tatatoku ended, Bandai picked up the license for the large scale Mugen Calibur design and leased it to Hasbro which saw a slightly modified version released as the Transformers toy 'Roadbuster'.

* Confusingly there was a Taiwanese bootleg titled 'Convertors' that released the Bonaparte Tulcas (Tanker), Mugen Calibur (Wheels) and Ovelon Gazzette (Chopper) models. They were sold individually and as a three pack. Even more confusing is that the Mugen Calibur model was indicated in text, however the graphic showed a Super Dimension Century Orguss 'Orgroid' on the front and rear of the box. The Orgroid was also issued in the same pack in place of the Mugen Calibur - see Convertors Maladroids section.
