I wasn't paying much attention to collecting when this came out. I was wondering if it's worth picking up. Does the face paint on all three figs look decent in person?

The paint looks fine! Macho and Luger are both solid figires. The Sting however is disappointing. He just uses all around wrong parts and has a head that's too big. Which is a shame since I think it's the best Sting likeness Mattel has done.

Once I get it open, I will probably swap Luger's boots to a white pair. I can take some pictures if you want to see something particular.

To help with Sting's oversized head. If you pop it off and put some cotton inside the head and pop it back onto to torso it raises the head giving him a neck which helps hide the size of the head.

Aside from the big sting head nothing wrong with it. May be hard to find in stores now most Walmart’s Had them clearanced down as low as $20 a month or so ago. Haven’t seen them around in awhile.
Good luck!

Sting's torso is ridiculously too big. They better not use it on future Surfer Stings

The sting is my favorite from the set, however there's a lot of things wrong with it. The head is oversized (think jakks), the torso is way too big, the legs are the usual skinny ones and the boots aren't lime green like they're supposed to be. I fixed mine with the bulldog torso and raised the head a little, but that oversized kills it to be honest. It's a shame because I feel like the headscan is fantastic.

I think it depends. I've seen some look like trash and some solid.

The ones I saw all looked great. I'm usually not a fan of event specific attire, but I love this set. They're probably gone from stores, but I saw sets on Amazon for around $30 fairly recently.

Good luck! I found one on the bay last night for $25, which was what made me post this. I bought it earier this morning. Thanks for the help!

Here’s the figure with the head raised. When it arrives he will have zero neck, because the head sits that low on the torso.

Imo its worth that price thats only a little over $8 for a elite figure especially for big names like Sting and Macho Man.

Crazy question, but did Macho ever wear that attire without the face paint?
