And speaking of swapping guys around, was it ever explained how the minds of the Multiforce and Energon double-gestallts worked? Was it just, as the last guy said, whoever happened to be on top? And for that matter, the leaders seemed to be the only sentient parts of the 3 Energon gestallt teams, but we'll never know because no one cared anymore by the time they were introduced in the show.

No, I don't bleive it was, though the naming always folowed Powerlinx Guy on top. Though let's be honest, and not to be factionist here, but the autobots are generally more organized in such things than were the cons. With Powerlinx, you had two minds generally in agreeance of "Shoot the Decepticon!" The Gestalts, Defensor was united on the grounds of doing no harm, and Computron was a group of scientists. The Deceptiocns on the other hand, had a lot more problems with
"Shoot him!"
"NO SHpoot him!"
"Shoot the Autobot fro the glory of Megatron"
"Shoot Starscream for the Glory of Megatron!"
"Look a Bunny!"
ANd for the Piranhacons:
"Would somebody tell me who to shoot already!"
The three man teams also beg the qustion too, what of Magnaboss? and Magmatron was three unit to a single mind, but wasn't there another one from BW/BM?
Me, I just cheated and had Glavatron or someone blow the combiner proraming out of Vector Sigma and clear to Kigdom Come. It doesn't make a lot ofsense I know, but it gets me around the fact that nome of the Combiner Homgaes cna combine anymore. We're 3/5 of the way through Bruticus (and actually 4/5 finished if you repaint BlazeMAster as Vortex, and I'm using the U1.0 Skywarp as Blastoff) The repaint of Movie Dirge just needs a few touch ups and there's Slingshot to go with Silverbolt, We got Drag Strip (well, some of you do...) and Dead End, There's Botcon Razorclaw... Shall I go on?
