I think it Davey's scan is spot on. I used this pic for years nagging Bill and I think they nailed it... i wonder why he didn't go w/ those wristbands though. he must've used a different promo pic probably some b.s bout deco hits and bringing the figure in under budget

I don't know why, but every time I see that Ziggler scan I immediately think of Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter!

I'm surprised no one has nit picked the glaring mistake in Ziggler. It just seems like people like to just criticize because a figure isn't meeting their preference, and don't spot the problems. Ziggler's Shirt: Front: It's too bad. Back: 'M too Good Missing an "I" in "I'm" vs.

I think there is an eyeball.... Nevermind I think those are lips? I saw that yesterday too, but I looked and thought there was an "eye" instead of an i

That Sting headscan is too fat. It's squished down and needs to be stretched out longer. It makes me feel like this is a version of the fake Sting from WCW. If someone made a custom and it looked like that- per the headscan- they would clearly be told to use a different head for it. It just does not resemble Sting at all in the face, which is perhaps the most important aspect of the figure. It was the only figure I was planning on buying in this set but if the way that headscan looks doesn't change by the final product then I will obviously be skipping them all.
And while I understand that there exist those who only collect classic figures, I only collect the modern guys. So if you consider this Sting to be modern then that's only half the set as modern and the other two are yet another Dolph Ziggler which I feel like doesn't truly capture his essence and a Damien Mizdow we really could have gone without ever seeing. Was all that really necessary when there are roster members without Elites that I'd pay for instead? Does anyone recognize the fact that there are literally thousands of Junk Yard Dog figures out there warming pegs??

You have to understand that certain folks are still emotionally crushed by the loss of their dear Hollywood Hogan elite, so in order to cope with such devastation, they're mourning in anger and they're taking it all out on the innocent Elite 39 Sting and Sid(which are both great figures but it'll never be the same as our dearly departed Hollywood Hulk, he's simply irreplaceable.

So, according to my Uncle, my little cousin is TERRIFIED of Sycho Sid. Guess what you're getting for Christmas this year, kid? (As long as I already have mine of course!)

Dammit they should have used that singlet torso for demon Kane. Heck they could have used it for his previous masked tank top attires.
I'll only get sting here. They're clearly holding back the full elite ring gear modern sting to try and get us to cough up all the $$$$ we can before giving it to us. This one looks good though he really should have had the red robe.
Scan looks odd in the first pic but I think it's just the pic angle. I just want ring gear sting already!!

I don't regret preordering Godfather, Sid, and Bulldog. Sid's scan is a little off, but Godfather and Bulldog are perfect.

Sid and Bulldog just look sick!
Sting looks.....well the face looks off and I dislike the red shirt. But I will definitively pick him up. It is Sting.
SOmeone said above that people are hating Sting bc they are angry over Hollywood. I agree, but Sting can be done better. I am angry over the pricing, the lack of quality and DM basically being regular figures and lack of double jointed elbows, but in no way is that affecting my opinion of the figure. It simply NEEDS work.
I find SID perfect. He has a sadistic grin. And yes, Mattel does NOT have great face scans and that SHOULD be addressed and talked about.

They should use that Papa Shango/Godfather torso on Undertaker.
It's kinda strange how Godfather's scan looks so good.....and then you look at Sting and it's like a cartoon of Sting. Maybe they were actually able to scan Godfather and had to try and do Sting from a photo? Maybe some people just don't scan well. Some guys just always seem off. Ziggler, Edge, Bret, HBK, Triple H......but then you look at R-Truth who is PERFECT every time.
I don't understand, lol.
