This is how the right picture of your item on eBay can get it sold. I was looking for a VAMP, but came across this Stinger with out the missiles and launcher. The picture looked so cool, I decided I must have it.
Not sure what I was going to do with, though, so I made it the vehicle for my first custom figure, Otter.

I cleaned it and stripped off the decals and repainted it flat black. While it was disassembled, I painted the detail in the cab, head lights, fender flares, winch and fender mounted shovel. After all was painted, I reassembled it and hit with a couple coats of Dulcoat, making everything seem flatter in colour.

I had an AWE Stiker brush guard and test fitted it on the front and it went on perfectly with the Stinger's regular bumper (a little bit of the bumper was trimmed).

I found the light bar from the HISS II fit nicely on the b-pillar behind the cab and it complimented the lights on the brush guard nicely.

The rear gun is made up of the two barrels and mount from the Thunder Machine. The lower part of the gun is from a VAMP gun and pedistal. I split the VAMP gun in half, keeping the lower portion as a base for the the Thunder Machine gun mount. Using a Dremel and Xacto saw, I got the two pieces to fit together.

Mounted on the right front fender in front of the passenger seat is an M-249 Squad Automatic Weapon with an AN/PVS-4 night vision scope. The mount is from the sniper rifle mount on the back of a Night Ops HMMWV. I drilled a hole in the fender and slid the mount in place and trimmed it a bit so the SAW would fit in it.

The final piece is the antenna and mount from an AWE Striker, I simple glued the mount in place on the right rear quarter panel.

My intention for this vehicle is that Otter and a couple others I've designated as a new Night Force will use this as their fast attack vehicle for a quick and quiet ingress and egress and reconnaissance. It is small enough to fit in the cargo area of a C-130 Herculese or CH-53 Super Stallion helicopter.
