There is an anime that I saw when I was young, that i enjoyed a lot but cannot remember the name of. It invoved an organisation, 3 ships that when combined could turn into a robot, depending on the ship that was the head would have different abilities. There was also an evil organisation that was trying to take over the world, they had horns on the sides of their heads and had disguised themselves as clowns. Can't remember much else but the anime was excillent. One phrase I can Remember is "The Felons On Mount St Helens" or something like that. Anyone know what I'm Talkin About

I know exactly what you mean. I used to watch those as a kid. In the UK both those anime you mentioned were sold as "Formators", but in reality they were anime from a collection called Force Five, five seperate anime given a dub treatment. More specifically the anime you mention were known as Starvengers (The three combining jets, known as Getta Robo G in Japan) and Gaiking (Xelons from St Helens.)
Here is a website of interest:

Sorry, but the force five stuff wasn't released to DVD here except the first coupld of episodes of Spacekeeters, renamed "Sci Bots", but that is only in questionable dvd sellers like marketplaces ir cheapshops.
