I got this idea recently, that I'd like to do for fun.
The Getter Robo Nero (ゲッターロボネロ, Getta Robo Nero) is a powerful new robot created to fight the armies of the Makai Realm, lead by the Ogresaurus. The combined robot is powered by moonlight, so it can only be used at night, but it's individual components can still be used at any time of the day.
It is the titular mecha of an eponymous live action movie trilogy, where it is simply referred to as Nero.
