- Sandsting is a Decepticon Mini-Con from the Robots in Disguise portion of the Aligned continuity family.

Sandsting stings everything. He stings his enemies, he stings his masters, he would probably sting sand. The only thing sharper than his armor-piercing stinger is his tactical mind, making him an impossibly deadly adversary when he has a chance to plan an ambush.
Games
Robots in Disguise mobile game
Toys
Robots in Disguise (2015)

- Sandsting (Mini-Con, 2015)
- Accessories: 2 swords, claw-armor (L & R), helmet, stinger-armor, energy effects (L & R)
- Sandsting transforms from a robotic scorpion into a Cybertronian torpedo in a single step. As a Mini-Con, he can attach to and launch from any Deployer figure, such as Fracture. He comes with a number of clear plastic accessories attached to a Decepticon-insignia-shaped sprue, which can be attached using tabs and slots. Some of these parts can combine with those of his wavemates Beastbox, Ratbat, and Velocirazor to form an energy shark.
- Unfortunately, due to the placement of his scan-badge under his tail, scanning him for the Robots in Disguise mobile game is rather difficult unless you peel off the sticker. Otherwise, you have to position juuuuuuuust right to get your tablet camera there. Alternatively, one can unclip the tail slightly so that there is better clearance. Don't worry as it can easily be reattached and detached as needed.

- Mini-Con Mega Pack (2016)
- This massive fifteen-pack of Mini-Cons, released exclusively in some Asian and European markets, includes a marginally-changed and accessory-less Sandsting, adding a dab of silver paint to his stinger.

- Takara ID Number: TAV24
- Accessories: 2 swords, helmet, claw-armor (L & R), tail armor, energy effects (L & R)
- The Adventure Series release of Sandsting is bundled with Fracture and Airazor (in lieu of the more logical choice, Divebomb). "Sandstinger" is a redeco of the Mini-con figure above, replacing the purple plastic with lilac, green plastic with dark grey, and casts his energon accessories in bright clear-green. Sandstinger also features a different scan-badge, which is compatible with TakaraTomy's Transformers Chronicle app.
