I have all kinds of problems with the APA figures.
1. Heads are out of scale with one another 2. Ron Simmons looks like Big E according to Mattel 3. Ron Simmons has Akons skintone 4. Lack of a molded sleeve, they have the mold why not use it? 5. Bell bottom pants, (it's time for a new Jean mold, this is not the 70's) 6. They should've come with cowboy boots, they would've looked badass with them.

I more upset by the fact that people are taking such issue with this.

I was thinking about #1 the other day, like they got the samples and realized, "Oh no, Bradshaw's supposed to be a head taller the Faarooq!", "Well, then just shrink his headsculpt *slide whistle down* and and enlarge his headsculpt *slide whistle up*, done!".(may or may not have actually happened)

Apa doesn't bother me as they pretty much always wore shirts. But the sting is dissapointing. So dissapointing

APA was fine. Sting wasn't.
APA, Sandman, Raven, Tommy Dreamer, Road Dogg, Kevin Owens, Dean Ambrose, and street gear Brock Lesnar should have molded shirts, but people like Cena and Sting should not.

It has to be situational. Road Dogg should have been a molded shirt. When did he ever wrestle without one? Kevin Owens should be molded. We are going to get a million sting figures, it doesn't matter if Mattel botched the shirt this time go round. Cloth shirts are cool sometimes, but I think the rubber molded shirt that CM Punk ringside collectable came with is a cool way to go.

I don't mind painted shirts when it makes sense.

It can't be molded because he doesn't tuck it in

I think certain figures def do NOT need cloth shirts. APA painted on shirt, Perfect (skin tone is off) because they did have tight shirts on and it was always tucked in their pants. Tommy Dreamer (if they make one) need a Cactus Jack plastic shirt, not a cloth. Cactus Jack, doesn't need a cloth shirt. Nikki Bella painted on shirt...great. Rey Mysterio, with painted on shirt...def worked out great. So painted/plastic shirts work better with certain character then just throwing a cloth shirt with every figure.
So On to the Sting figure. My opinion, is that the figure does look great had it not had the painted shirt on. It looks weird because it's tucked in, that figure deserved a cloth shirt instead of the coat. Then it would have been a 10...In my book.

I don't care for the shirted apa but they made them right with molded shirts. I just want acolyte versions! The Sting is a whole other topic, I'll just wait for them to make a wrestlemania 31 version. It'd be cool if the new elite Cenas came with molded shirts imo, I wonder if people would complain or not.
