What hands did he use for the accurate gloved look ? If you are referring to Sting I used the cuffs from E9 MVP and painted a spare left hand I had. You could use the left hand from a basic Seth Rollins in shield attire for a factory made one.

I plan on swapping Goldust gloves onto a loose Stong, and keeping another one moc. As for the arms, the factory ones don't really upset me. It's good enough

Yeah, they can't put anything on his gloves because WWE does not have the rights to use the 'MECHANIX" name. Current Sting figures will be able to have the Scorpion logo, though. That will be nice if they add scorpions to the gloves on modern Sting figures. If you would like to do a hand swap to actual gloves that might give off a MECHANIX look even though it would be inaccurate, you could always give Sting the gloves from that Halloween Rey Mysterio. They're normal sized black glove hands with skeleton bones on top. From a shelf it almost looks like the MECHANIX pattern he used back in the day.

Good idea kingnothing. Might have to look into that as there's no way I can get my shaky hands to paint that logo on the gloves! ;-)

I dug this out to show you what I meant. I stopped work on it once I saw plans for the DM last year, but it should give you an idea about how the gloves could look.

Such a sick find. Really hope I find one this week

I caved and bought Sting off eBay! Really wasn't too bad of a price, buy it now for 40 with free expedited shipping. I figured that they made 14 bucks off me, but that's more than worth all of the time I would have spent checking the tracker and in gas money driving around looking for him. Let alone that I'm on the east coast, so that's probably at least a 2 week wait right there. Best of all, I should in fact be repeating history and have him before I leave for vacation, just like DM Flair last year! Stinger is coming to the shore! I'll definitely be doing the arm swap, and I'm going to give him Goldusts gloves
