While looking at my 1994 JusToys Stretch Lex Luger figure I noticed that the figure had been leaking some sort of black fluid in the package. Apparently it leaked from a small hole near it's feet. The fluid had now semi-hardened. Strange things is that I have never opened the package, so I could not understand why there would be a hole in the figure.
Obviously the figure is now useless to me and I will seek to replace....
My Bret Hart stretch figure still looks excellent.
Wanted know if other people with the stretch figure have had simular experiences.

i had a stretch armstrong figure when i was 10 and the same thing happened to it..i had it in a tote with some wrestling cards and i didnt know that it was leaking .it go all over my cards and i had to throw them away..i guess those arent made to last forever...wonder if anyone here has had that problem with the ljn stretch figures..that way we would know if it is caused by age.

One of my LJN Stretch'ems was leaking small anthrax-like white powder. The JusToys Luger was leaking some sort of thick oil. Guess neither survived time. |

I have opened up the package to see what I can salvage. Only things worth saving are the plastic head, the USA trunks and the trading card. |

I received a Bret Hart Stretch figure (loose) as an added gift from a seller on eBay just this past summer.
Mine has some leakage around his neck, staining the cloth tanktop, but nothing too serious like yours.

Man I had both Bret & Luger. I really wished they'd have come out with the Razor & Diesel strech-ems. There was that one pic floating around for a while, I belive of both Hall & Nash holding the figures.
