Hey, the UK should be getting Elite 47 A & B any time now according to Smyths, and I'm looking to buy The Rock from this set, but after the recent debacle with Rusev and the staining from his jacket, I'm somewhat concerned
Has anyone got the new Rock? Has there been any issue with staining with this figure? and did anyone actually manage to get a Rusev without staining?
I'm also planning on getting Goldust, obviously he isn't posed with the jacket, which is good. Is it worth soaking the jacket before putting it on him?
Cheers!

Are you opening it? If so doesn't rinsing it in warm water take out the excess dye? If your leaving it moc don't worry about it

If your leaving it moc don't worry about it Ah I'm opening them, soaking them does take out the excess dye, but seemingly when the figure has been packaged wearing the garment there's a risk of the dye already running onto the figure before you open it (like what happened with the new Rusev, heard a lot of people saying it happened with the original Yokozuna Elite too)

Very minor. But after washing, I don't intend ever taking the jacket off again. The run isn't as bad as old figs like The Model and the red on Koslov.

My Rusev was pretty bad, although I never had any of the older figures so I have nothing to compare it to. Definitely keeping the jacket on though like you said

No need to treat the goldust robe it's just perfect and I haven't had any problems with it. I can't wait to get that rock but I'm just gonna keep it in the box so I'm not worried if it stains.

My Rusev was inkless but I suppose I should open that Rock soon to avoid staining...
