How did I make a mistake? I said "authentic ring attire". Is a t-shirt "authentic ring attire". Barring the ABA era, when was the last time we saw Undertaker whore a t-shirt? You are wanting entrance attire, which you claim is what the box says. The box does not say that, it says ring attire. Yes, Taker didn't wear that shirt. But as Mattel explained, they planned on giving everyone a WM shirt. When did they say that? Also, if they didn't put his coat, then what accessory would they have included? NOTHING. Did Rey Mysterio wrestle in his Avatar jacket? NO. Did they include it. YES. Was the jacket entrance gear? YES. Did they include it? YES. What makes Undertaker the exception? I'm not trying to be mean or rude, but it's very clear. Mattel half-assed.

So because they didn't include the coat, it's half assed crap? If the figure is accurate, how is it half assed? That would make it like 80-90% complete.
I just have a feeling, even if they did include the coat, you'd bitch. You'd probably be bitching that they haven't released the series yet.

Why do Elite's need accessories? Just because you want them to? Would you rather Elite's came with giant sledgehammers or laptops like Jakks did?

I'm not trying to be mean or rude, but it's very clear. Mattel half-assed. Second time I am posting this: Bill again, other members of the team will use this user name as well, but so far I am the only one to post here so far. Due to the compressed nature of the timelines between when Undertaker came out in the hooded robe and when the WM 26 Elite figures would reach the shelves we did not have time to develop the robe as an accessory. This wave was planned as a redeco wave late last year, when soft goods development for the wave had to begin in order for it to hit retail on time. The initial plan was for all our Elite WM 26 figures was for them to include commemorative T-shirts, but this plan was changed to include more personalized accessories for Rey Mysterio and Jak Swagger using already existing parts, repurposed to be more appropriate to each superstar. Triple H as you can see retains the shirt. Undertaker was to include this shirt as well, but it did not seem as appropriate to him, so it was changed to a shirt that celebrated the continuation of the streak. So that is why Undertaker does not have the robe. If it becomes a regular entrance gear of his there would be a good chance it would be included as an accessory at some point. Thanks Bill

WWE has nailed all of thier other "PPV" lines. Sure, they are Basics, but they are accurate. Plus, the Elites cost $5 more. This justifies adding a simple hooded coat. The ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) er was sleevless for God's sake! They could "cut costs" on not having to pay an extra $0.01 to make sleeves. It's very simple: We pay more for Elite, we expect to get more. WM Elite have been the most barren set we've seen when it comes to accessories and getting our money's worth. That is the reason Mattel won't get my dollar off of their half-assed crap. If it was that big of a deal, then they should have held production for a month so that they deliver what they say they deliver- unsurpassed quality. We wouldn't have noticed if the set didn't hit for a few more weeks. ...you're seriously just not listening to anyone and being stubborn. Mattel, nor anyone else replying to you are wrong. You are. - As far as "not noticing" - I guess you missed the dozens of threads in August wanting to know where the set was, right? People did notice. I totally agree with you. I was anticipating this set as much as the rest of us- Why? Because we had expectations of getting great figures. Now that I see most of them are crap, I frankly don't give a ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) about them and will not be buying them. Had Mattel waited a few more weeks and delivered quality, I would have bought them all= spending $200+. Instead, Mattel cuts corners, and they just turned off a loyal customer. I even attended WM so it's an even bigger slap in the face to commemorate this event with figures this 5hitty.

Better yet, Triple H never wore that shirt at all either, are you complaining about that? again, no. The fact is that Mattel has given you a product that you have loved but released 1 set that is an exclusive set to TRU that has no affect on any other series what so ever and you do not like the set. So effing what? They very well could of just done a regular (basic) series for WM26 like they do with the other PPVs and that would still not have Undertaker's gear. As I have already said (but worth saying it again since you do not seem to get it), Just don't buy it and wait for the next Elite Undertaker. It's only a few months away (same with the belts), just relax.

They don't even HAVE to post here, or have a relationship with us - yet they are. You should be thankful for that, and appreciate what product they have given us. -- And I love how you again, know exactly how much time they have had, and long it should take them to produce certain things. You know nothing.

He walked out with the World Heavyweight Championship. Now you tell me, what would be the most logical thing to include with the Chris Jericho?
