I just got my Death Stinger in the mail that I ordered from jedi bill's on Ebay, And let me just say that I am very impressed. When the tail is extended, it's about 18 1/2 inches long, which is, needless to say, big. Very big. I think I like it best out of all the scorpion-type zoids that tomy has produced. It's certainly better than the Guysack, which might as well be called a walking junkpile. that's not to say that I don't like the Guysack, it's just that the brown colorscheme and exposed innards are really underwhelming. Anyway, the Death Stinger is clad in thick plastic armor and is armed to the teeth. Believe me, I've played Zoids: Battle legends, and I practically went insane trying to beat it. It sports conceiled claw vulcan guns, death beam guns mounted on either side of the charged-particle beam gun tail, heavy alloy (plastic) claws, sharp mandibles, swimming thrustor blades, and conceiled blades in the claw armor. When you flip the switch, he walks forward, (jerkily, but very scorpion-like) his pinchers...pinch, his mandibles chomp, and his eyes light up! If you get the chance to purchase him, he's well worth it. He may not be my favorite, but he is certainly awesome.
GOOD: He's packed with features and is relatively inexpensive.
BAD: The walking motion is a bit jerky, and the legs are difficult to assemble right so they don't lock up
ODD: I'm not a big fan of the blue/red color scheme. It reminds me of spider man!
