Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

I remember Rail Racer/JRX also getting a decent amount of screen time for the separate members of Team Bullet Train, but there were only three of them.

Ah yeah, fair enough; was only thinking of G1. RiD was fine in that regard it seems.
Though I think there was only one other cartoon with combiners... and my word, Energon was even worse about it.

Eh, there were members of the Build Team and the Commandos who could have used a bit more screen time, but at least they spent time on some of each team.
Animated had one combiner (Safeguard, admittedly underused), and Armada had Perceptor and the Mini-Con weapon teams, dunno if you wanna count those. Or Go!, which was never actually broadcast per se.
And I gave up on the Energon cartoon partway through.

Well, I'm only counting combiners in the sense of a team of five or six - or at least three. Perceptor I guess works, but bizarrely we barely ever saw him himself iirc and it was mostly just the team members. Which is fun.
Safeguard might count mind. I think the big discrepancy for me is when the combiner isn't just like, a magic mushroom ala Wing Saber or Jetfire combining with Optimus where it doesn't result in a new being, more just a powered-up form of one of the characters involved. For instance, G1 Bruticus is definitely not just a powered-up form of Onslaught or Brawl or the like; he's an entirely different character with a unique personality. Energon Super Hot Shot, however, is just Hot Shot using Inferno or Ironhide or Jetfire or Rodimus as legs.

Really? He was used quite a bit in the original cartoon and actually managed to be one of the most-used of the original 1984 lineup.
