Hi all
I opened my Elite Undertaker and was happy with the final product but I cant come to terms with the headscan, Mattel's Undertaker scans look nothing like Taker if you ask me.
But the interesting note that I came across was that Undertaker doesn't have the dancing skeleton tattoo on his neck but every other tattoo looks spot on to me!

That tattoo is on the back of his neck in real life right? They probably didn't paint it on the figure because unless you turn the head completely around you'll never see it because of the hair.

Off topic I know ,but whatever happened to the Sara tat? I mean obviously he had it removed,but when did that happen?
To get back on topic I found the Mattel scan to be passible even if slightly cartoonish. The rest of the detail on the 2 current figures is excellent though

Its been removed since I hear Undertaker and SARA are no longer together. Undertaker then had it lasered off, and all Classic Taker images have had the SARA tattoo photoshopped!

Yeah the scan is the only thing that bothers me. At times i comletely object to it but some people seem to get a golden shot where i can see the look mattel was going for and can see the likeness. Its hit and miss.

I like the scan. It fits the rest of the Mattel line and the entire collection looks uniform.
As for the dancing skeleton tattoo...really? It is hidden behind his hair. That would be like saying they didn't put his tattoos that are on his stomach, which are hidden by his singlet.

The Mattel scan is actually very good. The Elite series head could use some extra paint work and right now I'm working on a repaint, but rest assured this is a very accurate head scan. A lot better than many of the Jakks offerings including the Heaven and Hell pack scan.

Yeah, I love Taker's head sculpt, myself. They really nailed his current look, he looks exactly like that these days.

Yeah, I forget which RA series it is, but one of my Taker's has a tattoo on the back of his neck. I believe it was RA 4, I seem to recall that Taker having it. I don't mind the Mattel headscan on Taker better than the last Jakks Taker headscan I bought. |
