I got mine last week (same time as MP Bumblebee). It's the same style of one-step transformation as One Step Lockdown, which I still consider to be the weakest of the 1-steppers, but thankfully Stinger pulls it off a lot better than Lockdown does. Gimmick-wise, Stinger is what Lockdown should be... clips in and stays in car mode (whereas Lockdown can be a pain in the butt to get into car mode, and is prone to spontaneously popping back out to robot mode). So this toy is actually substantially better than what I was expecting. And of course, the best thing about this Stinger is that he is not a redeco of another toy! Thus far the only original-mould Stinger toy.
