- i've had the boot issue with a Elite Miz, seen loads of bad paint apps on E24 when they first came out, thought i was lucky to find a decent Ryback & Barrett from the set.
i dont think its a holiday rush as both sets have been out for a few months. just poor QC and bad luck i think

It's a mass produced line so things like that will happen. It does suck when it happens. That being said in all my years of collecting with as many lines/figures I collect I've only had 2 figures with the wrong or backwards parts. One was the Movie Masters Batman Begins figures where his forearms were backwards and the other was a TDK 5" Batman with two lower left legs/foot. So I have been very lucky.

My E19 figures were covered in lube (no sexual jokes but seriously). My E19 Brock had his hand like literally popped off. Other than that, I've had leg pegs stuck so the leg only goes sideways a tiny bit.

I got a boppv Mark Henry in a trade on here with two left arms. Got a boppv Daniel Bryan with two left thighs off here too. Got an e19 HBK with two right calves from wrestling world. Got a wmh Edge with smudged boot designs from Smyth's. And a bunch of stuck/locked joints. The quality control sucks.

Guess I've been pretty lucky, cause I've never had these issues.

The small smears on the figures kinda bother me a bit I have to say.

ive gotten a two left footed D Bryan before so I feel your pain. I emailed Mattel and got a voucher. Sadly when companies are that large and producing this much product things are going to slip through the cracks.

I've had leg pegs stuck so the leg only goes sideways a tiny bit. I swear about 25% of my elites have this problem. Another problem I'd forgotten: All those Build-a-Ricardos that came out with the hair piece set wrong so the strand of hair on his forehead didn't join up to his hair, and it just looked like a slug on his head. Was a simple case of pulling the hair piece off and resetting it, but I bought/returned three or four BOPPV Big Shows before I figured that out. Was pretty humiliating in the store trying to explain why I was returning them. |

I've been running into QC problems a lot more this year than any other with mattel. I have yet to own a BAF that can stand up straight on its own without bowing out forward. Paint jobs have been hit or miss since this summer in my experience. And I'm not that picky,but some of the ones have been simply atrocious. And today I picked up a bo 2013 Kaitlyn. I just opened her up to find her left hand is barely attatched. Basically just dangling there. If I twist it at all its gonna come off. Good thing she's just gonna stand on a shelf. My point is I feel your pain and I hope mattel steps it up next year.

it's funny that MDT likes to reply to buzz news thread like "batista", but does not want to address this kind of thread. boo.
on topic, i got tru triple h's back logo on his pant all messed up, almost 1/4 of it wipes out, i display my figures up front but really for this kind of price, really hopes better qc from mattel.

I am having a hell of a time right now finding an Elite 25 Sin Botcho with a nice paint job on the mask, They all look like CHOCOLATE SHARK.
