[Deleted]

Hey guys. 
 I bought this today at a flea market,I have never seen this toy before so I googled it and it let me here, I read a couple of post but those were from 2007, anyways I was wondering if anyone had any new information this.Are these still rare and of course the big question Is there a market for this one out of the box and what would it be worth. Thanks for all your help/

Why? Just because he's a new poster?

To answer your question, yes. It's still extremely rare. eBay is always the best option for selling as it'll be seen by more people there than anywhere else. I paid close to 200 bucks for mine which is mint in box. I wouldn't take less than 80 if I were you.

It looks to be in quite good condition. Is that a bandaid around the base of the stick? You have a great find there regardless, especially when it was being questioned whether or not they even existed. Oh, and welcome to wfigs. Enjoy your stay.

Right on. Thanks for the info guys. It's in pretty good condition but it has a split on the right ear. The thing on the bottom is a cardboard ring, I can take it off without damaging the stick. To Admiral Ackbar I promise you it's not a TRAP, I'm just a newbie looking for info on something I found, and must say a super cool forum, looking at a lot of the old wrestling guys I had. Thanks again everyone.

You should check out my 1994 OSFTM thread -- I put up an advert for these things last week and it's been buzzing around various forums. If I were you, I'd sell now! Stock is high!!

*resisting urge to offer stupid money for this child's toy*

Please do not use this forum to generate interest for your future auctions.

There were three of these Hero Heads : Sting, Vader and Hulk Hogan. I bought all three years ago from a German seller. For soem reason they popped up quite often on the German ebay site back then. I paid $ 100 each.

Hey guys
After Looking at that other thread and the timing on this one it does seem a little fishy, but I promise you it is all a coincidence, I went to the market yesterday morning seen this toy in a box, I was like cool it's an older wcw toy. I bought it, went home and looked up what I bought. I found
this forum signed up to be a member , waited for a couple hours to have my account activated and posted it. I did not intend to start any controversy. Just looking for info on the head.
I really am looking for info on this site,I wasn't looking to generate a buzz for a future auction. sorry if it came across that way.
Thanks

So you think that he was hanging on to his sting hero head just waiting for someone to post about it on this forum so that he could create an account and make thread about having one without ever advertising it being for sale? Or are you insinuating that this poster is in cahoots with the creator of the other thread? Even if they were, what's there to gain? It's not like it's the fountain of youth. Myself and others on this forum own them already. I bought a vader mib off of the German eBay for 40 usd shipped. Why couldn't this guy have just made a nice pick up it just be a small coincidence.

[RealBryanB]

I'm going with the theory that this man is in cahoots with the guy that started that other thread. F that guy.

I never seen one of those before
