So I swapped out Sting's arms with a pair of Dolph Ziggler's. I think they look much better. The extra-wide Batista torso bothers me less now that Sting had slightly smaller arms.   |

You could swap his torso with E39 Bulldog. It looks far superior to the Batista torso.

I resisted doing any kind of fix-ups for years until the RSC Nash. I had to swap heads with the E16 Nash. But a torso swap?  that. God bless the people who do it. |

Bigraj that's exactly what I'm going to do with my Sting, already bought a basic Dolph (the one in black shorts with the little "DZ") for the arms. I just hope the skin tone matches

The figure looks so much better out of that crappy rubber jacket.

It was the cheaper option for a pair of arms so I'm hoping this will work. |

You know what I mean the original Orton/Ziggler arms were very lean ripped arms. But sing E19 Ziggler they have been giving him the much larger DM Steamboat arms. I think the Steamboat was the first to get them. I think any basic with double tapped fists uses the same arms as his E19. It was the cheaper option for a pair of arms so I'm hoping this will work. I had to give that idea a try. Here he is with smaller shoulders, too. Older version: Yes those are the old smaller Ziggler/Orton arms. They are to small. And I am pretty sure those are the arms all Basic Orton and Ziggler figures still use. Unless they stared using the larger Elite arms on their Basics recently. |

Too much work to fix this figure. I'm just going to keep the jacket on and hope Mattel gives us a retooled elite Surfer Sting ASAP.

It's hard for me to tell the old orton/ziggler arms with the new elite ziggler...until you look at his forearms. I fear the basic I bought is the old arms and the new arms on Ziggler's elites look way better on Sting. That older version of mrhoss is probably the best we can do with this figure!
