Now sting has signed multi year deal with AEW, how soon can jazware make a sting figure?? I know they have already planned the next couple of series but his figure in the line will sell like crazy for them.

Im hoping they'll be able to push it out fast as there next ringside exclusive. I think a "moment in time" figure like the blood brothers would be great. Just modern day sting with the attire he was wearing tonight, in a unique package, with the winter background. That would be a dream. Would defiantly expect to see him in the line Jeremy has been talking about for legends. I think it will take 6 months minimum for a figure, assuming the delays in production are fixed by wave 3.

We need Evolution of Sting remade for RSC.

Well considering I didn’t pull the trigger on any of the Surfer Sting Elites, I’d love to see that. I’m wondering if there’s any conflict of interest with Sting. WWE owns WCW but Sting also owns the rights to his name/likeness. Could Jazwares even do a figure based on WCW?

It's a shame that we'll never see the Legends figure...Hopefully Jazwares starts doing Legends figures and bangs out a bunch of classic Stings, including that look.

Jakks did it in the TNA Legends line, and Storm did it with Hogan, so I don't think that's an issue. They just wouldn't be able to put WCW on the packaging.

I’m just upset because I felt that Mattel dropped the ball on Sting. The DM has been his greatest figure thus far and even then there were issues with it. I was also looking forward to getting the legends version. That was the only figure I wanted from that set and boom canceled.. I’m hoping AEW covers all eras of Sting and doesn’t cheap out on boot molds, sculpting and headscans with different hairstyles. Mattel never got his boots right to even begin with. Early Crow Sting wore tall boots with buckles, later on he switched to mid sized boots and then ankle boots.

I'll take about 3 '96-'98 "Crow", neon pink "Surfer", neon green "Surfer", and yellow "Surfer" please and thanks.

Sting is my favourite wrestler and I'll happily take ANY sting figures!

I think a Sting will be a regular in the Legends line.

He is there to pass the bat to Darby Allin

If Jazware can get their manufacturing in order maybe we can have a Ringside exclusive Sting by this time next year. Despite his terrible booking in the WWE, Sting moves merch and it would be stupid to not capitalize on him.

He is there to pass the bat to Darby Allin There is nothing alike between Sting and Darby besides face paint. Darby’s gimmick is an edgy 16 year old skater twink and Sting’s was vigilante.

But they were definitely teasing something between the two with a staredown last night. It will be another pairing with a veteran to get a younger guy over like what they are doing with Cody/AA, Archer/Jake the Snake, Spears/Blanchard, Cage/Taz, etc.

How is their manufacturing messed up when Halo and Fortnite are all over the place . Was wave one and two just a retail experiment? Did retailers not think another wrestling company could compete with WWE toys? I don’t see why this line is so scarce.

I really hope the first figure isn’t a ringside exclusive. That means it’ll be around $25 plus shipping.

WWE doesn't own the ring gear Sting wore in WCW, they don't own his face paint designs and they don't own the scorpion on his tights.

I hope they can get to two Mattel did not get to: the short-haired, early crow Sting that was supposed to be in Legends 7 and a surfer Sting with neon pink tights and hopefully a long coat.
They are stating he signed a multi-year deal with AEW, so that gives them some time.

Honestly mattel has made enough for my taste, I'd rather see guys who don't have a figure come first
