No biggie, it's already been established that Stinger doesn't have a new head. The battle mask is just cleverly painted.

It's still a very dumb way to promote what they have for sale.

Fellow Seibertronian and blogger hinesika has posted new in hand images of the Stinger figure from The Movie Advanced line by TakaraTomy. Stinger is a repaint of the Deluxe Class Camaro Bumblebee AD-27, and sports a cleverly painted Battle Mask to give him some distinction from his mold-mate. Take a gander at Hasbro's official Stinger bio!

If Bumblebee is the most courageous Transformers warrior, Stinger is the most devious. Built by humans and controlled by a shadowy organization, he is the evil counterpart to the heroic Autobot, a Decepticon spy programmed for sabotage and destruction.

We've mirrored the images below. And if you fancy, Seibertron's own Bumblebee gallery can be seen right here!

Must Haz!

He looks very good, and we really need more human made Decepticons. Any rumors about Hasbro making or releasing this Stinger?

Good pictures, I love the mold. The subtle canon arm and battle mask are very nice adds. Hopefully they won't abandon the movie toy line. I'd love to see more generations movie figures.

Nope. Last BotCon, the group I was hanging out twith was told at the Hasbro booth that Hasbro had originally planned to produce a Stinger remolded from Bumblebee, but it never got past the prototype stage.

The AOE line is over for Hasbro. RID is taking its place.

I bought him. And just like Dispensor, I plan to display him in my classics collection as a brand new character.

honestly im a little let down. the lack of paint in car mode (lights/rims) is not befitting of a pricey takara import.

I dont think takara cheaped out. Its just that stingers rims were painted black in the movie so they went for that look. As far as the lights, thats the same way they were painted on bumblebee.

alright, you made me feel better about the rims. but the lights still bug me. and FYI, the "autobots united" BB had painted rims and lights, he looks stellar.

It looks like the Age of Extinction/Lost Age toys are unwilling to leave us, as a new redeco has shown up on Toys'R'Us Japan's website. Admittedly, we had heard of it before, but check out below some very nice shots of the TRU Japan exclusive Black Knight repaint of the AD-31 Armor Knight Optimus Prime, including shield and sword accessories, and the faceplate switch gimmick!

He looks so cool.BTW,he looks more like Nemesis.Just look at him and compare it with the LA power battler Nemesis Prime.

This Black Convoy is a sexy MOFO. I already have AD-31 so I gonna pass. However, if anyone dont have the AD-31 retool and are Nemesis Prime / Blabk Convoy lovers, this is a must buy.

That is an awesome repaint.

That's one killer looking premium repaint :APPLAUSE:

I have the normal Leader so might get him if he's not to super expensive. He looks great.
I wish they'd do something with Nenemsis Prime in the next film.

I really don't know if i need this. It's a beautiful retool, but the red on the chest doesn't belong. I'll wait to see what HLJ prices him at.

I don't think it's going to be on there. it's a Japanese TRU exclusive. I don't remember HLJ getting the Nemesis evasion mode prime.

I NEED preorders for this!! but yea colors on the chest is a lil strange too.

I don't know about teal and black, but the last black Autobot Optimus Prime was Prime Dark Guard, without the teal:

even though im not a fan of these incarnations of the characters the toys look pretty solid. Wheeljack looks like he'd be a great figure to play around with, Soundwave is ruined by the backpack but he still looks interesting. This is why i miss the universe line, they could easily put these in there along with every other unreleased figure that we all wanted. Kill one steps & titans, bring back universe.

Since it's a "Black Knight" redeco, I gotta wonder if this is meant to be Optimus when he was a member of the same Knights as the Dinobots, who all received similar "Black Knight" (movie-accurate) redecos.

I usually find black repaints bland and unimaginative often concealing the details but this one looks very, very slick and the black is mostly on the already smooth areas with the other colours used for bringing out the finely detailed sculptwork. He's a fantastic figure to begin with and this makes a great variant.

Even though Black Lioconvoy started the trend, and the teal and black isn't limited to Optimus Prime either

I picked up Soundwave soon as I had seen him on Amazon. I wish I had picked up the DOM version, but that one seemed to be non-existent on any shelves. DOM was such a pain with all the final cancelations... (Probably because of the coupon abuse...) :HEADHURTS:

The Human Alliance Soundwave I had to order from China... :sad:

Which had taken so dang long to get to me...

DOTM Soundwave (Dx & Ha), Q, and Dx Leadfoot, never made it outside of Asia. That really suck because they are all great toys. Especially HA Soundwave. I bought mine for 60$ shipped when it was still time. No regrets because he's amazing and now go for a premium on ebay.

Ah I knew that about Wheeljack and HA Soundwave... I think I paid like $89 shipped for HA Soundwave. Which was about a little after I realized it was not going to hit the shelves...

They already did. There were four Dinobots in the movie, so they gave those four the movie-accurate Black Knight treatment.
