Not sure if this has been discussed before, but is there any reason why the DM Sting did not come with the heavyweight title. Pretty sure that was when he won it from hogan. Most of the other DMs have a title with them, was just intrigued as to why there was none with Sting.

I would have bought a second one had he came with that belt.
That's the attire and everything from when he won the belt, and they could have even thrown in the title from e16 Nash because thats the belt he won. Maybe mattel was going for the night after when he was stripped of the title due to controversy.

If we got a belt with the figure then the coat would be plastic

That thing is already long gone from most online retailers (at MSRP). I'm shocked. Hogan and Razor hung around for a LOOOOOONG time.

As others have said, if we got the title then either the Jacket or the bat had to go. I'd much rather have the cloth jacket and the bat than another title.

Hogan had creative control over the figure, and decided to hold Sting down again like he did with the three count at the beginning of the Starrcade match, LOL

Also because people would also complain that its not the belt he held. He held WCW, that ones branded WWE.
Also its been mentioned a million times, new DMs arent necessarily specific. IE Razor and Flair

Maybe mattel was going for the night after when he was stripped of the title due to controversy. He wasn't stripped the night after. They had a match that finished after tv went off the air, with another screwy ending. Sting returned the belt to JJ Dillion on the first ever Thunder in Jan of 98...

DM Sting's already ahead of the game with all new body parts (except the arms), a cloth jacket and a bat. No world title is forgivable considering everything else good about it. Also because people would also complain that its not the belt he held. He held WCW, that ones branded WWE. Eh, not really. It wasn't a issue with Nash's NWO belt nor was it really brought up with the DM Flair.

Most of the other DMs have a title with them, was just intrigued as to why there was none with Sting. Gotta be technical here. More than half (62%!) of the DMs have no belt with them. Macho Man - NO BELT Shawn Michaels - NO BELT Steve Austin - NO BELT Undertaker - NO BELT The Rock - NO BELT Ultimate Warrior - NO BELT Ricky Steamboat - NO BELT Triple H - NO BELT Bret Hart John Cena Ric Flair Hulk Hogan Razor Ramon Sting - NO BELT Undertaker - NO BELT Stone Cold

Except for the arms Sting was all new parts with a bat and a cloth jacket. I doub5 they could add anything else to it.

I was only referring to the actual 'moment' that this figure relates to, and that is when he won the title from Hogan. But nevermind, as others have said on here, it doesn't take anything away from an amazing figure.
