Fiction
War for Cybertron: Earthrise marketing material
As the Ark was traveling through space, fuel ran low, so Optimus Prime sent Fireguard, Roadburner, and Windstorm to Micron to collect the powerful yet dangerous plasma energy detected by Teletraan I. Decepticon Micromasters Stingracer, Runner, and Motorhead followed them, intending to sabotage their mission and seize the plasma energy for themselves.
The Autobots took advantage of the dense population of Micron to hide out until they were ready to take the plasma energy. As Micron was the most secure planet in the universe, the plasma energy generators were protected enough for both sides to struggle to reach them. The Decepticons made contact with the plasma energy first, but the generator overloaded and Stingracer and their buddies were vaporized by the unstable energy.

- Micron Micromasters (Galactic Odyssey Collection, 2021)
- Part of the Encounter 2 set of the Earthrise Galactic Odyssey Collection, representing Micron, Stingracer is a Decepticon-aligned redeco of Hot Rod Patrol member Trip-Up, and transforms from a robot into a muscle car with an engine blower. They can combine with Windstorm to form a wieldable weapon, but as the duo is from opposing factions this isn't really feasible, at least canonically.
- Notably, the product description for Stingracer explicitly states that their vehicle mode is an homage to Kenner's M.A.S.K. vehicles - specifically, the orange hot rod Stinger.
- Stingracer is part of a six-pack exclusive to Amazon, bundled with Autobots Fireguard, Roadburner, and Windstorm, and fellow Decepticons Runner and Motorhead. Despite being labeled as "Encounter 2" in the Galactic Odyssey Collection, this was the third set to be officially revealed. The reasons for this delay are unknown.
