I want to see a Wolfpack Sting more than anything else at this point. If and when it does happen, I hope they get his hair length right. Should be longer than the Crow DM. It's a small detail but I hope it's not overlooked.

With the GAB '90 and the Starcade '90 neon green already planned here are others I want are... 1. Halloween Havoc '90 Hot Pink and Black vs Sid. 2. Starrcade '89 Black and Yellow with the rainbow Scorpion and face paint vs Lex. 3. Clash of Champions XIV all white w/rainbow Scorpion and multicolored facec paint. Tag match vs Doom. 4. Clash of Champions XII black and pink vs the Black Scorpion. 5. Clash of the Champions in March '88 black & red w/gold scorpion w/ red & black facepaint vs Flair. 6. White and blue from Starcade '88 vs Road Warriors. 7. Battlebowl all black with red Scorpion and B&W facepaint. 8. All white with gold scorpion from his match vs The Great Muta in NJPW. (The RSC CSDA exclusive)
Simple repaints that I do want. (These I might just do myself at some point) 9. War Games '90(?) Same as GAB with different red/white/blue facepaint. (This is in my Top 3) 10. Starrcade '92 all one has to do is paint the Scorpion all white. Then change the facepaint to white & blue.

I really REALLY want a dark haired 1996 Sting. I'd love for a Bash at the Beach set to come along. With the exception of Hogan, they've got everyone under contract. Sting, Luger (with face paint and the Flashback Luger head as an accessory), Savage with painted face, Hall and Nash (in debut gear). Down the line when the Hogan stuff blow over (you know it will) we can get that Hollywood DM and then a WCW tights Hogan from BatB 96 as well. They can even make a Gene Okerlund WCW version

I want a brown haired Surfer Sting so Bash at the Beach 96 would work for me. One of the biggest and best moments in wrestling history. Definitely a necessity. Also, so many times the brown haired version of Surfer Sting gets overlooked. Personally, as far as more blondes go though, I would love the yellow tights/orange boots/blue scorpion attire along w/blue-white-orange color combo face paint style from Starrcade/Battle Bowl '91! The latter of which Sting eventually won on said card by eliminating current champ @ the time "Flexy Lexy" as the finale to the massive match within dual wrestling rings. That of course took place shortly after Rick Rude accidentally clothes-lined partner "Stunning" Steve Austin over the top rope, and an ensuing ridding of Rick Rude at the hands of Ricky Steamboat. Then, there were those subsequent sore sport antics on Rude's end—a la Hogan doing the same thing to Sid @ RR '92, which had coincidentally occurred not long after the Battle Bowl bout, so perhaps the concept was even borrowed a mere month later, approximately—as he pulled Steamboat out amid his own frustration that followed for the ol' elimination via reciprocation. Amusingly enough, this process is somehow always legally allowed in the world of wrestling, but in the words of Jim Cornette, "I digress!" Abdullah The Butcher emerged from the curtain during his entrance, going on an immediate attack of his random, raffle-drum-drawn partner in a pairing of face + heel vs. face + heel conceptual type of tag team match that pitted the two aforementioned participants against counterpart combatants "Flyin'" Brian Pillman & "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton. Also, any variation of neon/hot pink-plus-purple paint combinations including pink tights w/both black scorpion logo & boots would be extremely logical, as well as preferable, when it comes to blonde Surfer Sting! The oft-worn entrance jacket he utilized as further enhancement to the whole costume concept would probably have to be left out, as there surely won't be a DM Sting released again any time soon. Here's a few examples, all slightly different in face paint style: (This one is my personal favorite version of the face paint whenever he wore pink tights at least, from debut Nitro vs. Flair) I would hafta think the general consensus agrees pink is something that's gotta come out at some point, no? Plus obviously, it would fit nicely next to any Bret Hart upon a collection display. Another man with a similar submission hold would be reason enough for yours truly to place them together. Aside from those already suggested here, another for the fun of it would be any blue + light blue + white combination which Sting has ever draped himself in, preferably being primarily blue, as in tights color, as opposed to white simply sprinkled with a bit of blue. Albeit the eventual release of HOF 5 Jake The Snake next to a blue scorpion on white tights Stinger could be cool too, the more I envision such a portrayal of duality in my imagination, but I'm thinking more along the lines of and about two light blue & white face paint/attire-sporting warriors of wrestling per se: WM IV Ultimate Warrior & Sting. I'd gladly place two premier characters with a similar look like that right beside one another on a showcase shelf, I must say! Something like these face paint styles pictured below might be practical, even if Bill decided on a mashup for color coordination with matching blue tights, since Sting had the propensity for utilizing white tights with blue scorpions more so than blue tights with white scorpions, at least I think so anyways, although he DID wear the latter too. I'm just not so sure if he indeed did so with particular, precise face painted appearances, in other words . . . but anywho, on to them, shall we? Wouldn't either of those, if done right, look pretty cool beside WM 4 Warrior? And also, seeing as that's an example from against Vader, my earlier mention of the Battle Bowl tights I'd be totally fine with going that route from when he fought Vader another time in them, but had orange & blue paint & blue boots, instead of the orange boots with those yellow tights. I just happen to be quite fond of mix-'n'-matching orange & yellow for some reason, but I've seen people suggest the yellow tights/blue boots combo before, so there would definitely be a demand for that I think, plus he still threw in some orange on the face, I'd be pleased/appeased. Light blue with orange tights that a member depicted in a post earlier in this thread is also something a lotta people seem to desire. Really, I think in similar fashion (pun intended) to the Warrior, we just really need many & plenty Stingers to "Sting" us throughout the lines, with as many vivid, vibrant color coordinated combinations as possible. All would be absolute purchases for a bunch of collectors, no doubt! Finally, in addition to the green, yellow & black Bash At The Beach 1996 Sting with the oft-worn, multi-colored scorpion & "STINGER" letters down the sides of those famous black tights of his, in which a lot of people seem to be pining for over the years (and already plentifully provided as examples in many other posts, thus I'll spare showing a repeat reference) . . . much like myself, as I feel that is one I consider an absolute "MUST MAKE" option & opportunity . . . I truly believe his run with brown hair during the wrap-up to his tenure as "Surfer" Sting is equally important! Hence, one is NOT enough, so here's one last suggestion to throw in the hat. It's up Mattel's alley of red fondness too: That one is from a pretty iconic moment also, from when Sting declared himself a "free agent" on an episode of Nitro. Red, white & black always goes well together, as we've seen many times before, such as say, Mind Games HBK! But anyhow, that last surfer appearance before the character change (the end of an era) could lead to a perfect followup, as it would naturally allow for any short-haired crow Sting thereafer, like his debut appearance of said persona...or really any early variation of it, before he fine-tuned the look to iconic proportions, growing his hair out, etc. (i.e. the excellent debut Mattel DM Crow Sting from Starrcade 1997).

How about a Sting from the mid 90's before he started the Crow gimmick but had short dark brown hair?

A hot pink tights surfer Sting and a short brown hair Sting from a little before he took on the crow gimmick - maybe what he wore at the War Games match right before that.

OK the BatB has become a reality...So how about we get an elite FB neon pink Sting (Beach Blast '92) next using the new basic head, Austin's torso, DM Steamboat's arms, Hawk's thighs?
