I've noticed a problem recently with the 20-0 Undertaker and the Elite 18 Undertaker, where the wrists are extremely loose. I was in TRU yesterday and I was looking at the Undertaker figures on the shelves and the hands almost seemed to be coming out of the hole in the wrist and the pegs on the wrist and every single figure had at least one of the hand pegs stretching out of the wrist hole, some of the figures had both of them. I know my own 20-0 Undertaker had an extremely loose left wrist to the point where the peg was wobbling around in the wrist hole. Here is a picture of what I'm talking about. You can clearly see space between the wrist and hand that shows the peg that connects the two. It's almost like the peg is too small for the hole. Is anybody else noticing this, and is anybody else worried about upcoming figures like Brock Lesnar who are going to be given that Undertaker gloved hand piece? *edit* Here is a pic of Brock from Wrestlingfigs....look at his right wrist. This has me worried that the majority of them are going to be loose.

I've seen that before (can't remember which figures). I had to heat the area then push it close. The AJ I just bought has the gap near the wrists and my E18 Barret has a gap where the shoulder peg pushes into the upper bicep. I'll have to try some heat since I couldn't push them close without it.
It seems like the factory work is getting sloppy.

I have three of the 20-0 Taker and the wrists are all fine (Well I know they are onthe two I opened anyway) I think the problem with the one you showed in the pic is the plastic piece of glove on the forearm needs to me moved down a bit.

Its just the little plastic piece, the wrists are not loose all you need to do is move the little piece down a bit.

The 20-0 Undertaker I picked up is just fine. I have seen various complaints posted about this figure, from skin tone being off to loose joints. Kinda odd considering the figure was, basically, a give away for about a month and, in most cases, shouldn't have cost anything extra to get. I think it's a good figure. A little plain as far as the outfit, but Mattel can't do anything about that. That's what Taker wore/wears.

I have a loose 20-0 taker and a MOC one. They both are fine. I haven't opened my E18 one yet. But it looks like the majority are indeed like that.

I dont have the E18 one yet, and my 20-0 one is MOC so I didn't notice this. I'll have to check it when I get home to see if it looks the same. Other than that I havent noticed loose wrists on any new figures
