Phillip reviews the new Sting Raider! Click here (http://yojoe.com/reviews/vehicles/stingraider2009/)!

"As an added bonus, there are now some weapons storage bins on either side of the engine. It's fun little updates like this that go a long way to making this vehicle stand out."

The original had these as well. You can see them partly open in the original's top photo you used. Looking at the original's top photo, I cringe at how overexposed some of my first run remastered photos are. Might have to correct some of the worst offenders, including depth of field issues on some.

Fair enough - I changed the text so as not to indicate them as "new."

Something that's been bugging me enough about the reviews that I felt compelled to register:


Let me get this out of the way first - this vehicle is not an update of the Valor vs. Venom Sting Raider (http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/04/stingraider/). No, it is the modern incarnation of the Water Moccasin (http://www.yojoe.com/vehicles/84/watermoccasin/). Though if you're reading this site, chances are you already knew that. I guess that's another copyrighted name lost.
