Something bugs me with the face still... I think it might be the way the eyes are painted more than sculpting, though the nose is a bit too big. That said, I still love the figure and will be getting it when I see it. I would like to see another sculpt made for future elite surfer Stings though.

it looks pretty darn ace, in some angles the torso choice makes sense, it's pretty weird

Congrats PJ. In between having possibly the worst day of my life, I too found Sting today. Mine had the laces. But like you, I've been waiting 26 years for a GAB Stinger, and I wasn't about to wait any longer. Plus I needed a "pick me up".

Thanks brotha. It's gonna take some time to get used to her being gone.

Looks like Sting and Croc both skip leg days...

Sting really looks good in those pictures especially with the correct boots. Congrats on getting them with those boots.

I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of that Sting standing next to Lex and Road Warrior Hawk (NWA no shoulder pads)

I'll get it when it's inevitably discounted on Amazon.

Although all my L1 Hawk figures all have different arms than the original. I went with my favorite of them which is the DM Steamboat arms that the have been using on Elite Dolph and Cody figures.

I think we need an 89-92 Luger now. I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of that Sting standing next to Lex and Road Warrior Hawk (NWA no shoulder pads) Here you go.

One other mistake on the back of the box- Sting won the NWA world title at the 1990 GAB, not the WCW title.

While it was the NWA championship I think they said that because it was the big gold World Heavyweight title that eventually became the WCW World Heavyweight Championship belt and not the old NWA World title.

Stop making excuses for this figure! You would think they would know the big gold was the NWA World Title belt for 6 years.

Are the proper Sting boots the same as the Billy Gunn basic? Just picked up Sting today with the laces, couldn't resist the urge.
