We have a new in-hand Transformers gallery for you. Hailing from the movie series by way of a Japan exclusive repaint, we have the Stinger! Stinger features in Transformers Age of Extinction as a human-built Transformer, designed as a Bumblebee clone. With a striking and sinister red color scheme, Cliffjumper this is not!
Stinger is a straight-up redeco of the Age of Extinction new Camaro Bumblebee, which means the robot mode is more or less spot on for the appearance of the robot mode, although obviously the vehicle mode is not the on-screen Pagani. This may or may not prove to be a dealbreaker, as the deco itself is excellent, and we’d imagine most people would display in the robot mode, which looks great.
You can check out the full gallery of this Japanese market exclusive at the link below:

Think a more cherry red color would've been better, but all in all a decent Stinger.
Afterburner
Not Stinger.

I guess I don't have that problem cuz I personally wouldn't spend a dime on any of that RID stuff. Saw that stuff at Target the other day, couldn't believe how bad it was. But hey, buy what you like!
Smasher
I don't plan on getting him, but it's nice to see that the markup is not crazy high for those that do want him.

Red and black look so damn good on that mold.

Looks good. Bot mode he stays. Cue up the Cliffjumper comments, weee!

I hope you find him there. Stinger looks great

I really want this, but my money is spread pretty thin between the combiners, the RID figures and a whole bunch of other stuff. Hopefully I'll pick him up for a reasonable price when Comic Con hits Lexington in a couple of weeks.

I'm not saying that. I'm saying I like it, but I don't have the money between generations and RID and my savings account to afford him

Japan can keep it. I hated how much he looked like BB and his only interesting point was the alt mode. So basically this has nothing going for it in my eyes

Bot mode looks great as Stinger. I just need to fashion something so I can mount his spinners more like they were in the movie when mine arrives.

He looks pretty good. Only problems I've got are that he's 1. Not a Pagani and 2. The mask just looks…off to me. I don't know why. It just doesn't look right. Whatever. Opinions, opinions.
Transmetal
Huh? Its 30 bucks dude. I already have the one step changer, so this one will be in bot mode as another Stinger clone.

Bumblebee: "I hate that my rival never got a US release!"
and yet he was touted around as a Wal-Mart exclusive all summer of 2014.

It looks better than Bumblebee but i just dont think its worth paying for a red repaint. I just cant get over the fact that he's not a Pagani
420tron
He's a great figure, I like him much more than BB… it's mostly b/c it just looks better in every way possible with the perfectly matching red and black deco. BB uses different yellows and looks stank.
Kaijumaster
Daaaang, I am not a movie-verse collector, and that looks SEXY!
MnemonicSyntax
Miiiiight have to get someone to make a custom Stinger from an HA Bee…
AOEGalvatronRox
This look really good. Even the Camaro mode. I'm not entirely sure why Hasbro never made a redeco of this guy.
Slingshot
Pretty good! Wish I could afford him though!
