- Sandstorm is a redeco of Brawl, transforming into a Leopard 1 main battle tank. Using the Scramble City-style of combination, he can form any limb to a compatible torso, though his nominal placement is as the left leg to Battle Gaia. He was only available as part of the Battle Gaia giftset.

Notes
