This is 100% Sting for me. Had Razor been in green I think it would have been a smaller divide, but Starrcade 97 is a top 5 "dream" figure for me.
Razor hasn't gotten a fair shake yet though because he seemed to be the least ready to show off. We know that the head is sitting too high and Mattel plans to address it, and hopefully they add the taller boots. Plus, Razor is a guy who almost looks naked without his vest and chains. By the time that's finished, I'm expecting a pretty awesome figure. He needs a better knee pad mold but we're likely going to have to live with the leg sleeves, which is fine if that ends up being my only complaint.
I'm absolutely awestruck by how great of a job they did with Hogan. I'm not a Hogan fan, whereas I'm a massive fan of Sting and a really big fan of Razor/Hall, but I'm super excited for that Hogan. I thought it was going to be a figure I purchased just to add to my collection, because what's a collection without Hogan, but I'm genuinely happy to get it. Bravo to Mattel. By default it still falls 3rd on my list because of my personal fandom but that may truly be one of the best figures Mattel has ever made.
All 3 are absolutely must buys for me.

Pretty sure most everybody will be getting all 3 figures - I voted Sting though because it's the look I wanted him in. Now if the hogan would have been nWo, & sting would have been surfer, I would have voted hogan

I'm thinking they would've been better off not showing Razor at all during this stage of development. I should be looking forward to him the most but can't get over the bad kneepad choice, headscan, small body and long neck. I know they'll fix it... hopefully to look much closer to the computer render.
But for now my vote is with Hogan. I seriously can't see them waiting until Royal Rumble to release this masterpiece. It looks ready to ship TODAY.

Hulk. It'll probably be the last figure I buy unless they do some sort of Hulk/Andre 2-pack at some point.

Well -- I haven't bought a fig in almost 2 years -- and I've NEVER pre-ordered a figure, but I'll be getting at least one Sting as soon as preorders go up...
WHERE THE HELL ARE THE PRE ORDERS!?!?

All 3
Sting is best though as I'd have preffered nwo/2002 hogan and hall versions.

Sting, so of course he's the one I'll be waiting the longest for. Very glad to have Hogan and Razor coming, too.

Sting > Hogan > Razor
Sting is first for me because that prototype is just so damn good and completely blows away my custom Sting figure. Hogan is second only because I like my custom Hogan enough to hold me over until this figure is released. As for Razor, I would have preferred a nWo Scott Hall so he comes in third.

for me it's Hulk Hogan hands down. I have many Hogan figures and I thought his jakks NWO figure was untouchable but now I am wrong, his DM fig looks pretty amazing and I can't wait to pre order it.
I will also pick up Sting and Razor but it's Hogan first

I normally would say Razor, but he looks awful at this point (I'm aware it's only a proto and will likely look much better), so I'll go with Sting. Any word on his accessories? I'm guessing coat and bat, but who knows.

Sting,Sting and more Sting. I knew we would get a Hogan and a Razor some day But STING no freakin way especially in his Starcade outfit. He will be the first fig I will have one Moc and one Loose.

Hogan. My favorite of all time, I was hoping for the 86 belt, and its nice to have the sideways headband. Sting is a close second. I will buy Razor, but I really wish it was a different color than the Jakks CS.
