DM Surfer Sting Official MOC and Loose Image!

Oh my Gosh! WHat an awful looking figure. This is Defining Moments? My gosh the plastic jacket is utter garbage and the face....looks like big bird. What an awful job by Mattel. Wanted Sting but easy pass now.

This was my one want as a sting fan and this looks like a Defining Disaster. Mattel will not steal my hard earned cash on this elite figure because that is not what Defining Moments and the extra price it costs is worth. Awful figure~!

I really hate that face, it looks like that one basic John cena head. Although I won't damn the sculpt until I see it in person

I am slightly interested in those tights... They would work decent as a base for some rockers customs

Jakks wins this round LOL. I'll buy two anyway.

Here's the RA style Jakks one released in the TNA legends line with cloth Jacket for the win!

I like the IDEA of cloth jackets, they dont look great though in this scale. You can have details on plastic that would look bulky and gaudy on cloth. Shirts and track pants are fine though

Well I'm back on board if they're going to correct the boots. It might not seem like it, but it's kind of a bid deal. Sting always wore those kinds of boots and I'm pretty sure he was the first to do so. When I ordered my first pair of wrestling boots 13 years ago, I noticed that they had an entire section of those style of boots and they were called Stingers. You kinda have to nail that on a Sting figure. That would be like giving Hulk Hogan giant yellow kick pads and everyone is like..."Well, let's just be grateful that we're getting a Hulkster!".

I don't believe the figure is worth the price. Razor Ramon and Hogan actually came with a belt along with other accessories, so I see why they were DMs. Unfortunately the new surfer Sting is just bland, and only comes with a molded jacket. I'm going to wait for a sale before I even think about purchasing it.

dude love is the first thing I thought of when i seen those legs with the white boots

I've learned with Mattel (especially after their e39 Sting) to not judge a scan till I see it in person. Because more often than not, they look much better once you have them in your hand.


The boots do annoy me though.

The problem with the jacket that came with the RSC American Sting is it doesn't have the shoulder tassils and was fitted for a much large DA figure. And to me they are very important details on the jacket to not to have with a 1990 GAB version of Sting. Plus it will be huge on the Mattel figures...So the Jakks jacket is out of the question to me for displaying loose. And if Mattel made the jacket cloth while it could have been the right colors/logos it still wouldn't have had the shoulder tassils. So I am very happy with the jacket we got. Again my only issue with the figure from the pics we have seen are the laced boots. I am fine with the scan, because I see the snarling look he would give with his chest beating into flexing taunt. I think it captures that expression nicely. After almost 26 years I am finally months away from having an official '90 GAB version of Sting. (Over the years I had made versions of a Galoob Sting, Toy Biz WCW Sting and a Jakks Legends Sting)
