Engine Combination GunBir-O (炎神合体ガンバルオー, Enjin Gattai Ganbaruō), referred to as "Another King of Engines", is formed when Gunpherd, Birca, and Carrigator combine.

Its techniques include Bircutter Storm (バルカッターストーム, Barukattā Sutōmu) where Birca spins so rapidly that he creates a wind vortex that pushes the enemy back or alternatively shields GunBir-O, and Bircutter Wrist Return (バルカッター小手返し, Barukattā Kote Gaeshi), where Birca twists its "wrist" to get something submerged in water, much like a fish game in a festival TV STORY-GP 39: Nostalgic Children.

GunBir-O can also use the Gunpherd Gun and Bircutter Slash attacks. With Engine-O and SeiKuu-O, it can perform Go-Onger Storm, Triple Punch, and Grand Prix Festival.

Its finishing attack is the GunBir-O: Ganbaru Grand Prix (ガンバルグランプリ, Ganbaru Guran Puri). Carrigater announces "There is no limit to great strength!'" (剛力無制限, Gōriki Museigen), then GunBir-O performs a colored one-two slash attack with Gunpherd then Birca, then Carrigator participates by chomping onto the unfortunate Banki.

Behind the scenes

Etymology

• This combination's name is either a pun on the Japanese word ganbaru (頑張る, ganbaru) which means to work hard or to do one's best, or the portmanteau of the two Engines' speech quirks, "Ganga gan" and "Baru baruka". The latter is referenced in GP 07: Partner Amigo, after they destroyed Bombe Banki.

Notes

• When GunBir-O is formed, Carrigator's head bends at the middle as Gunbir-O moves.
• In its Grand Prix, Birca rotates to face the fist instead of his tail.
