Fiction

Transformers vs. G.I. Joe

Sandstorm was outfitted with some high-tech weaponry and placed in U.S.7, a team of non-human G.I. Joes. Their first mission was to escort G.I.Rockets to the alien world of Cybertron. En route, they were accosted by the Oktober Guard, who boarded their ship. Just as a firefight broke out between both team, the battle was interrupted by Fortress Maximus snatching U.S.7's rocket out of the sky and gobbling up both teams! Form Follows Function Within Fortress Maximus, most of U.S.7 fell under the influence of Blackarachnia, a Decepticon responsible for turning the once noble Autobot into a lumbering brute. A Joe infiltration team was sent in to retrieve U.S.7, but as the animals had also fallen under Blackarachnia's mind-control, they lashed out when their allies came upon them. Only after Blackarachnia's defeat did Sandstorm return to his normal self. The rescuers and the rescuees then stormed Megatron's throne room together. Though the animals managed to escape, everyone else got captured by the Decepticobra alliance. Everybody Hates Metroplex

After the war ended and everyone returned to Earth, he and the rest of the animals lived happily with Snake-Eyes and Scarlett at their log cabin in the woods. The War Never Ends
