^ he came back?
OK Apologies--removed the question marked slights.
But between the surfer sting here and the nwo hogan and the figures' long development times & the shoddy uses of parts...
It's lame.

That is a HORRIBLE torso choice! Looks like a Deluxe Aggression!

can't believe Nivro™ hasn't commented. somebody do a wellness check on him LOL! I was at work but I saw it...Terrible choice honestly. This went from "greatest figure ever" when it was announced to, Ill pre order it day one, before I found out about the boots, to "Ill grab the second wave" until I found out about the torso.....now its just a "Eh, Ill get it eventually when there's a sale" |

I was looking at my elite uso figures and thought maybe the torso on them would be better if they made it just a little wider maybe.

I might have to pass on this one, unless I see some corrected boots.....
Not that the boots are the only problem, but I don't know..... it's just not good.
And I'm afraid the corrected boots will be just like when they said we'd be getting a corrected Honky Tonk Man jumpsuit.... it never happened.

Really wish that headsculpt was better. Hopefully future Stings will have a better likeness.

Sure he is still to ripped, but Mattel "improves" wrestler's physiques all the time. (Anyone with the Triple H torso, Dolph and Cody's arms and legs) so I can live with the overly jacked torso. The mouth will probably need repainting so the gums aren't white...but I am still glad to have preordered it. I will be fine with it one the boots are corrected. |

Am I the only one here who thinks that figure looks like garbage?
The head is horrible, the torso doesn't suit him either

The head is horrible, the torso doesn't suit him either Nope your not the only one, and this is coming from a long time NWA and Sting fan. I still pre-ordered it because I can fix everything but the face. Mattel's slowness in surfer sting doesn't give me much hope for more in the future. |

It uses Triple H's torso. Still not perfect, but it looks better than Batista's torso. I still say Austin's would be best for the DM. |

The neon green basic does look much better as far as the body proportions but that head just kills it. Feel especially bad for the guys who had this as their top wanted figure and are trying to make the best of it. This isn't the reception a DM of an icon should be getting but it is what it is. |

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.
