Manufacturer: TOMY Origin of Release: Japan Year of Release: 2000 Crew Number: 1 Motor or Posable?: 2x AA Battery Op Motor Review Info:Death Stinger ZS is recolour of the existing Death Stinger mould. It was the Thirteenth Zoid to be released as part of the Yuji Kaida line and, like all Zoids from that line, is Limited Edition. ZS stands for Zarka Special (Dr Zarka apparently being its creator in the battle story). Whilst the original Death Stinger was from the Guylos Empire, the ZS is from the Neo Zenebas and comes with a re-made sticker sheet to include the Zenebas faction and some custom stickers. Like the original Death Stinger, the ZS is compatible with CP-16 (Zoids Controller) Apparently the ZS was subject to poor sales. Ghostie's Views: Bought this kit on a whim and don't regret it one bit. The new pale gold and red colour scheme makes the ZS look very regal in comparison to the original. Having said that, the ZS is at the higher end of the price scale so it might be a turn off for casual collectors. Recommended for Rare Zoid hunters and Completists! Death Stinger ZS Fear the arm blades and CPC! A close up of dust the cockpit. Sneak attack! Hidden guns in the claws. Comparison.

IMO, those colours are better than the original Death Stinger. And I never knew about the hidden guns in the claws! Dang, that thing is full of shooty stuff! D=
(Also, I've always found the hidden "eyes" to be nifty.)

I'd probably prefer Death Stinger in Dark Zoids scheme *makes a wish to see one in Dark Zoids scheme as a model then hopes the price won't be high* ;D

always loved the color and the good thing is you can still find them relatively cheap, compared to the other Yuji Kaida zoids, guess this one wasn't as popular?
Yes!!!! Dark zoids colors!!! would be awesome, but it has to glow in the dark, wouldn't that be menacing, it could then stare you down 24 hours a day. XD

I don't know why though... I'd've thought this scheme woul be quite popular. And dark Stinger would = win! I'd put myself out to get that!

And cue crappily drawn 10 minute sketch: I'm not quite sure how Deathy imagined them... Although I should imagine they'd be more the Zenebas colour scheme, right Deathy?

OMG that is so awesome, could you imagine going into battle with that?! Now you can spork all of your enemies while they stare in disbelief! One suggestion, it needs the "face" of a chain chomp on it.... or one of those warheads with a similar face on it so it looks all evilish. xD
