"I've heard of partsforming, but this is ridiculous."

The Stinger prototype was being displayed in the KSI headquarters when Cade, Shane, and Bumblebee sneak in. A nearby video promoting Stinger claimed that it was "Inspired by Bumblebee, but better in every way!" Bumblebee took great offense to it, and knocked down one of the inactive prototypes. Later, Stinger was deployed with Galvatron to chase down the Autobots. When Galvatron assumed command of the prototypes, Stinger followed him into battle in Hong Kong. During the battle Bumblebee finally destroyed him and his head was then eaten by a Dinobot. A smug Bumblebee remarked "I hate cheap knock-offs". Age of Extinction
