Buying my first kite (Sting 3.3) and was hoping to get out and use it as soon as i get it...but does it come with kite killers or do i need to buy some seperately?

If it is a recently produced Sting (II), then yes, it does come Kite Killers (referred to as "Flexifoil Safety System" in their literture).

----------------------------------
The package includes:
Sting Kite, Handles or Bar Control gear (with Flexifoil safety system), 100kg/75kg 18m 4 Flying Line Set, full comprehensive instructions, storage bag and some Flexifoil stickers. There’s even a one month no-quibble free-repair just in case.
----------------------------------

You might want to pick up a (kite) stake for when you are preparing to launch and packing up for the day. Sail weights or something that you can use for that purpose are also handy.
