Bought from Wrestlemania Superstore and the only picture I took of the figure. Enjoy! Easy Benoit custom.

This figure is a mess. All the wait just for this. I wanted a good Sting so bad. Waiting to put Hollywood Hogan in the DM line knocked us out of him.

There is nothing wrong with the actual head sculpt. He made that facial expression in every match he ever had (surfer and crow) whenever he powered up/taunted that was his facial expression. The only thing wrong with the face is the sloppy paint on the mouth. They painted the whole inside white including the gums. Fix that and there is nothing wrong with the head. its not paint....its the mold. He has a huge overbite. look at them chompers

I did and I am sure it will look fine when painted correctly. We are looking at a sculpt that has been zoomed in and magnified on. With the actual figure at normal scale I am sure it will look fine.

More for me...it's a nice figure overall and I actually like that torso, all it needs is white Ziggler boots and it'll be fine. I don't base an entire figure on something as minor as a torwso mold. I'll get the Sting, and I'll get another to make a Benoit(good idea). HBK is my favorite wrestler and I wish they'd give him Slater or LOD boots instead of kickpads, but its a minor issue and I can look past that because the figures are overall great in appearance. Well you are a bigger man, not only in stature. As minor as a torso mold??? That's half the figure! His face sculpt is already iffy with the big old mouth guard, his boots are wrong which Bill said will be corrected but with what?!?! And some people aren't loving the plastic jacket. That's definitely a lot more minor issues than HBK's kickpads. You have a slight point in regards to the teething mouth, but that jacket looks good(although the first macho man figure jacket material would've been incredible), they propably couldn't afford to make it that way. The boots can be fixed by simply ordering a seperate pair of white Dolph Ziggler shoes/feet/boots(whatever you want to call them), and placing them on to the Stings legs...it's a non issue in the long run.

Eh...could have been better. Doesn't jump out at me as one of those figures I need/want right away. I'll wait for the second run with corrected boots.

Finally, a roided up Jake Busey figure Lol I was thinking Dee Snyder, but Jake Busey may be closer. It's definitely not Steve Borden.

Coming soon from the majority of posters in here. Threads like "a great american purchase" And "Ive just been stung!" I was actually going to use both when my RSC order arrived. It was going to be entitled... "It's a Bash! I've just been Stung with my Great American RSC Purchase!" Now I will keep it simple and just go with... "THIS...IS...STING!"

Coming soon from the majority of posters in here. Threads like "a great american purchase" And "Ive just been stung!" I'm buying it because it is Sting. Just this is not a good 1st impression. But hey, it might be bad camera angle and lighting. Keep hope alive.

But hey, it might be bad camera angle and lighting. Keep hope alive. It looks much better in CKHybrid's pics. Sure the torso is too ripped and the thighs should have been Hawk's, but most figures (unless they use the Bryan/Punk torso) have been given "improved" physiques. It may not be perfect, but it still looks good. I still say there is nothing wrong with the head sculpt other than a poorly painted mouth. Remove the paint from his gums and it is Sting from his power up taunts. I can't wait for my preorders to arrive. I have been waiting 26 years for a version of this attire. So when it arrives in May/June expect a cheese title from me. lol. And the B62 looks great also.

Im sure itll look a lot different I'm sure some folks here will take better, more detail photos and seeing it in person will make him look more human than Rob Leifeld drawing. I got faith Mattel would not screw the pooch that bad. But until then, meh.

I just looked at those pics and while I feel Sting is more jacked than he needs to be, it is a much better look. And I get that his face suppose to be his taunt when he is Stinging up, his paint job makes him look like Cletus. I can deal with it though.

No. What I meant is that the parts would be easy to customize a Benoit. And no need for torso cracking.
