- RZ-036 Death Stinger



 Death Stinger is a bit of an oddity, being so large for a sea scorpion type, but it also leaves a strong impression on the viewer. The model kit exhibits all of the unique features we got to see in the anime, including the ability to switch between land and sea mode.

- Zoids Battle Story

ZAC 2100...  The Northern Europa Continental War, which had thus far been fought with the Guylos Empire as the dominating force, was at a turning point due to the incredible counterattack strategy of the Helic Republic. The Republican Army had already broken through the central part of the continent. They had advanced to within 1000 km of the Imperial Army base. However, if the Imperial Army, which far surpassed them in total strength succeeded in regrouping their defeated troops, the battle situation could be reversed once again.

 Time was going to decide the course of the battle. If it was a short battle, the Republican Army would win, and if it was a long battle, the Imperial Army would win. Now, in order to gain that time, the Imperial Army introduced a third new Zoid to the battlefield in addition to the Geno Breaker and Lightning Saix, the true Organoid created based on the Zoid Core found in the ancient ruins of southern Europa. The Death Stinger.

 It had an emergency launch without sufficient time for combat testing, but its calculated strength was supposed to be even greater than the Geno Breaker's. The Imperial Command had high expectations, but something unexpected happened. The Death Stinger suddenly intervened in the fierce battle between the Blade Liger and the Geno Breaker and attacked them. The pilot's control had been completely lost. It was a runaway Zoid. The True Organoid. It's a monster that no one can control!

- Fuselage Explanation

 Death Stinger, a Zoid that was forcibly grown over a short period of time by culturing the Zoid Core that the Geno Saurer had brought back from the ancient ruins in southern Europa. It's the "True Organoid" that surpasses the experimental Organoids Geno Saurer and Rev Raptor, and its fighting spirit, vitality, and agility cannot be measured by conventional wisdom. Of course, its equipment also consists of the latest technology of the Empire, and it has a Charged Particle Cannon, various laser weapons for close combat, and super heavy armor on the same tier as the Death Saurer. It's also amphibious.
