Help ID unknown playset

Can anybody help me identify this toy:

It's obviously not a GI joe Playset but it looks cool and looks like it can be used as some sort of Cobra Base.

 

On the same note, does anybody know of any non GI-Joe toys/vehicles which are compatible with 3-3/4" Joes? Specifically, anything that can used as a possible base or HQ for dioramas. I know I have seen posts for using the new HeMan Castle Greyskull as a Cobra Castle...any others??? Are Star Wars bases/vehicles compatible???

Just to let you know right off, that is NOT a GI Joe playset. The cobra is just a coincidence, don't let that fool you - Cobra never had such an symobic base in toyform.

 

I genuinely don't know what that's from, but its helluva cool.

That, my man, is a Starriors Armored Base. Remember Starriors? Robot dudes with wind up gizmos, related to Zoids.

on scale, Starriors were about 5 inches tall, if I remember correctly, but there were some small little car-robot things in the line, the ramp may be scaled towards them.

 

these toys were cool back in the day.
