Thanks for the honest feedback on this figure. Especially because you're a Sting fan. It's so hard to be looking forward to a figure of your all-time favorite wrestler and have it be a let down or not quite live up to what you were hoping for. I haven't gotten this figure yet, but I am looking forward to it. Strangely, even though I'm mostly an elite collector, I'm more excited about the basic Sting than I am the GAB Sting.

Disappointed to hear that the jacket was hard to take off. you're not the only one saying that. I was hoping it was the same soft plastic that the Nasty Boys jackets were made of, but I assuming now it's the harder plastic?

Here you go. It fits pretty well. Had no idea she had two different pink and black attires. The shoulder straps have thick seams which shows the thread (see the Jakks and Mattel pic) but you can hide it under Trish's hair. Also, the pink on the Jakks jumpsuit is not nearly as vibrant as it appears in the photos. It's actually a duller pink, not like the Mattel bright pink.

For comparison:


Mattel with Jakks jumpsuit:

I know sometimes Mattel likes to give us attires for both wrestlers in specific matches. We got the duster DM Warrior and the DM Savage from Wrestlemania 7 to go together. And, Legends Rude and HOF Warrior from Summer Slam 1990.

Since the release of the RSC Y2J, it had me thinking that it's an easy step for Mattel to take the zebra print Network Spotlight HBK, change the zebra trunks to red, swap the head, give us entrance gear, and we have a WM XIX HBK.

Do you think this could be coming down the line? Also, what other complete match attires have we gotten?

No thanks. Nude Warrior will not be part of my collection.

I love tag teams, but this one would be an easy pass for me.

I'd rather have the Killer Bees, The Young Stallions, Orient Express, Conquistadors, the Moondogs, Barry O & Barry Horowitz, a two-pack of Iron Mike Sharpe and a second Iron Mike Sharpe, and Dusty Wolfe and Mario Mancini.

With the recent images of the DM Ultimate Maniacs Warrior, it has me wondering if the rumored upcoming Ultimate Maniacs Savage will come with his hat, glasses, jacket, and shirt.

Knowing that "Mean" Gene is coming out allows us to recreate this interview. It would be great if the Ultimate Maniacs Savage was a DM with all the gear:



The only match I believe the Ultimate Maniacs had was against Money Inc. and Savage didn't wear his hat, glasses, or jacket down to the ring. Instead he ran out with the Warrior ready to fight wearing just his wrestling gear. Will he simply come with the shirt and the one white knee pad?



The one white knee pad looks strange, but do you think Mattel will keep this detail? Knowing they sometimes leave kneepads off (HBK) has me wondering.

Perhaps we'll get a mix of both and he'll come with a shirt, glasses, hat, and knee pad?

Congrats! Those pics just put me over the edge to buy it.

Wow, awesome pics! Your Kalisto photo just solidified my decision to buy this figure. Thanks!

This is an interesting topic. It's strange to look back and think that at some point, we were able to get all of these wrestlers that have been mentioned:

- Steiner Bros (Hasbro)
- Giant Gonzales (Hasbro and Jakks)
- Cornett (Jakks)
- Owen (Hasbro and Jakks)
- Chyna (Jakks)
- Mountie (Hasbro and Jakks)
- Benoit (Jakks)
- Nailz (Hasbro)
- Gangrel (Jakks)
- Sunny (Jakks)
- Marc Mero (Jakks)
- Sable (Jakks)
- Jeff Jarret (Jakks)
- Billy Jack Haynes (LJN)

I know these were made at the height of these wrestlers being employed with the WWE. But, it makes me wonder who we've gotten from Mattel that we'll never see again either from them or another company. And, it's interesting to think about the many reasons why these figures may never see the light of day.
