- Stripmine is a Gigantion Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy.
Stripmine is the Mini-Con partner to Quickmix, Gigantion leader Metroplex's right-hand mech. Presumably, this means Stripmine holds a similar position among the Mini-Cons of Gigantion.
- Japanese name: Kill-Bull
Fiction
Cybertron cartoon
When Starscream began powering up the crashed Atlantis starships' main guns, Quickmix decided to cut him short by covering the entire ship in his quick-drying cement. Stripmine leapt to his station on Quickmix's vehicle-mode tower, and soon the Atlantis was entombed, a job well-done! City
Stripmine later helped Quickmix and Menasor in the making of raw materials to build a new Space Bridge generator so they could return to Cybertron. Guardian
He was present at the launching of the four colony-world ships after the death of Galvatron, and said good-bye to the Recon Mini-Con Team, since they were staying on Earth with their human friends while (presumably) the other Mini-Cons were sticking with their larger partners. As such, it's likely Stripmine was part of the new crew of the Ogygia, though he isn't explicitly shown. Beginning

- Quickmix (Voyager-Class, 2006)
- Stripmine transforms into a Cybertronic treaded vehicle with a cannon of some form on the top, possibly a laser-drill or a variant of a MASER tank. He can stand on the "control panel" portion of Quickmix's vehicle mode above the mixing drum, or attach to it in vehicle mode. He was available only with his larger partner.
- Due to a design flaw, Stripmine cannot Powerlinx to most toys in vehicle mode, due to the treads blocking the socket. However, though Quickmix's instructions fail to show it, he does have a peg that allows his big buddy to hold him as an odd rifle-sorta... weapon?
