How hard is it to release the Bash at the Beach figure with no face paint, 99 black trunks and either a Wolfpac shirt or WCW Tag Title if they can make it? All purpose 97, 98, 99 Luger. Apparently really hard. The Basic should of had the ponytail head so we could at least throw a Wolfpac shirt on him and use him as a place holder. It's bad enough we're likely never getting Konnan.

I really need them to release the stars and stripes shirt he wore when he slammed Yoko and the pirate shirt he wore on the debut Nitro. I have the parts but those shirts would really make them pop. Potential Epic Moments set … that would likely not sell well to a mass market ;-)

I just thought of something. Maybe just do plain Luger from 1996 but with both the WCW Tag Team and TV Titles. That way you give people some reason to buy it even though the figure is too bland otherwise. If getting those belts is possible of course, but the impression I got from posts on here recently is that it is possible. I think what we may end up getting is black trunks white boots with two heads (mullet and ponytail) and two shirts (Horsemen and Wolfpac).

I used the face painted 3 pack body, popped on the USA head, & then added two fists. Boom... done.

An Elite WCW Luger is long overdue...I would love to see him come with a classic WCW U.S. title as he was synonymous with that belt in the late 80s and early 90s...

I think you can do it, but I think the boots on the basic are shorter so it may make him shorter. The boots will be different man from basic to Elite. different pegs etc. I am swapping his boots for the white boots on a spare WCW/Red Yellow Macho. R/Y Savage IMO will look better with the black boots under the tassles. once I swap the head from the basic on there? Voila.....WCW Luger. Pity the basic head hasn't got the ponytail but Ill deal. You two saved me $12. I was going to buy another luger and attempt a swap. Thanks. No sweat man!!! I'm putting the painted head on the basic.....will look great with the basic Sting IMO!!

You know if Mattel really wanted to, they have the head sculpt and the body for Sting in his debut Crow look. It was the BATB tights with the Basic Flashback head but with white facepaint and two small black lines. Would be so easy to make. I attempted a custom, but I can't paint.

There's a basic one. Does that count? Speaking of which, anyone know if it's easy to pop the boots off the basic one and stick it on the BATB 3 Pack one? I hate the black boots, and wouldn't mind swapping them out for display purposes. If it's not easy, I won't do it. I guess my question is more long the lines of do the basic parts fit the elite figures. Think I used the boots from the incorrect dm USA Sting. Still want the ponytail sculpt minus face paint for it tho.
