Does anyone own the WCW Sting Wrestling Champ from Toymax UK Exclusive Wrestling Buddy?
I have only ever seen pictures of it on the internet, but never in anyone's collection!

It's definitely a grail piece. About a year or two ago, a UK Sting Buddy appeared on eBay. I won the auction for around $500 USD. The seller used eBay's Global shipping program. . . And the package was lost. One of the downsides of eBay's GSP is that they outsource the shipping to a third party company. In this case, the package made it from the UK to this company's distribution center in Connecticut and then vanished.  I haven't seen another pop up since. To put it into perspective, the last UK Sting to appear on eBay before this one was around 2013 - a six year gap. So maybe if we all wait another 4 years, it'll reappear  |

It's definitely a grail piece. That's really a shame when mail goes missing, especially an irreplaceable one. I have to wonder what went wrong and where the item is. Is it still in a box somewhere and where the heck could it be and no one has sent it to you. And if it was ever given away due to a dead mail reason, does some random person/not even a wrestling fan own this rare item? |

They lost a Syxx mattel figure of mine, and once sent me hair straighteners instead of the record I ordered! |
