Just curious how many of you have had problems with Mattel? I feel like I keep reading about legs snapping off and stuff. List your problems here:
- MVP with extremely loose foot.
- Cody Rhodes with warped leg.
I wanted to buy the Elite CM Punk today but found something wrong with 4 different figures of him. 2 of them has paint missing in the hair, 1 looked to have a loose foot, and 1 didnt have the full tattoo across his stomach. Pretty dissappointing. I also didnt buy Hornswoggle/Finlay today because Finlay's paint job was smudged up on both of the one's I found.
And just for the record, I love these figures... I am not bashing Mattel. I just think they need to be more consistant. Am I just too picky?

My problems thus far -
-Beth/Santino 2 Pack. Beth had a nice chip in her torso. Took it back and exchanged it. Problem solved.

Haven't had anything too egregious wrong with my figures. A couple of paint chips/smears, but nothing that bothers me.

I got a mattel edge and its perfect, It just depends on the figures not every thousand figures are going to be perfect and the people on here are a majority not mass, So there are bound to be a few figures with issues, Even jakks being ass sh!!ty as they are had a few problems and not speaking of there horrible body types.

Loose ankle on Elite 'Taker, but it doesn't matter since he's just on his stand all the time.

The only problem with one of my figures that annoys me a little is how Miz wont stay on his display stand all the time. The figure doesnt fall over or anything, which is why I'm not bothered that much. It just annoys me that if I go to pick up the figure with it on the stand, the stand just falls down and off the figures foot. Nothing major though.

My Elite CM Punk's been railing xanax, other than that they're all in good shape.

I've seen a couple minimal things as far as quality goes.
- Elite Series 1 Undertaker - Very loose ankles but a bunch of people have said this so maybe it's a problem with them all.
- 2 Packs Series 2 Carlito - The one I picked up is missing a small amount of paint on the inside of his tape where the wrist/hand joint is.
- Entrance Greats Series 1 HBK - Mine has a black mark on his arm where the white tape is. I got most of it off but there's still a little bit there. Not that big of a deal since his entrance attire covers it anyway.
- Basic Series 1 Kofi - I've seen a bunch of these with bad paint jobs on his tights and/or boots.
- Elite Series 1 CM Punk - Might just be mine but sometimes he seems to tip forward while on his display stand.

I recently bought a Vladimir Koszlov figure and his leg just twisted off while I was testing the joints.

I had a problem with my Evan Bourne, he had a little bit of paint chipped on his kick pads and also he has trouble standing on his stand other than that he is perfect. Doesnt really worry me tho.

Ive had no problems with mine, if anything as far as joints go, a few of mine seem tight, not loose

The only problems mine have is Elite Punk and Elite Taker have loose feet/ankle. I just display them anyway so it doesnt really matter to me.

- The paint on Beth's left leg was a total mess and she had red ink in her hair
- Because of the way it was packed, my belt pack Edge has a curved leg but I was bale to fix it. He also had an extra "Super" painted on his leg, which i was able to remove.
- I've noticed a few small, deep, ink stains on a few figures. They are too deep remove.

Other than one of my extra Randy Orton figures missing wrist tape on his right wrist I've had no problems.

So it's basically loose feet and missing or smudged paint.
