[[Image:|right|300px|thumb|Can fry anything except the guys he's shooting at.]] <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Bumblebee_%28Animated%29" title="Bumblebee (Animated)">Bumblebee</a>'s stingers are among the few energy weapons that <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Optimus_Prime_%28Animated%29" title="Optimus Prime (Animated)">Optimus Prime</a>'s crew have at their disposal. Capable of shooting out single blasts or concentrated streams of electricity, the stingers can easily go through rock, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Space_barnacles" title="Space barnacles">space barnacles</a>, and any old <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Earth" title="Earth">Earth</a> material.
