G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers
Cover Girl utilized an A.W.E. Striker during the combined G.I. Joe-Autobot assault on Serpent O.R.'s headquarters on Cybertron. After the defending Decepticon forces were routed, she drove into the heart of the base and took out Hun-Grrr with the Striker's cannon just before he could finish off a weakened Optimus Prime.

- Bumblebee A.W.E. Striker with Sgt. Stalker (2023)
- Accessories: Sgt. Stalker, turret, rifle, two antennae
- Known designers: Evan Brooks (original concept)[1]
- The eleventh figure released in the Transformers Collaborative line, "A.W.E Striker Bumblebee" is a 9-inch figure that transforms into the A.W.E. Striker vehicle used by the Joes (which in itself resembles a 1982 M1040 Chenowth "Hellfire" Fast Attack Vehicle, aka Beachcomber's altmode), serving as a counterpart to the H.I.S.S Tank Megatron released beforehand. He includes a blaster that can be attached to the top of the alt mode as well as over Bumblebee's head. He requires mild assembly out of box, as his roll cage and antennae must be attached to his body to complete his alternate mode. His stock photography depicts his thighs and fists as green, though the final toy has those parts cast in black.
- The set also includes a reproduction of the vintage Sgt. Stalker figure that can ride in Bumblebee's alternate mode or operate the aforementioned blaster in Bumblebee's robot mode. This figure comes packaged on a G.I. Joe Retro Collection style card included in the set.
