Just like the first elite Ryback was getting an all Black singlet.

I think it's just the camera flash, it'll definitely be purple when it's released. By far my favourite figure from sdcc.

Mine's getting swapped out for the Entrance Greats head, gloves, arms, and boot covers when it gets here, anyway. Then what's the point of buying it? Just get a standard Elite Undertaker & acetone off the tattoos and designs. E23 has the proper molded on, tucked in button-up shirt. 'Taker never wrestled back then with an untucked shirt, and it looks wayyy better than that cheap-o, too big fabric thing the EG came with. No other figure has the mold that matches '90-'94 'Taker's shirt. So freaking glad they gave him the rubber coat, too.

They've been really good recently. Besides these little ocd problems that most of you have. Takers purple. Not friggin blue. I can tell just by the pics alone. Weird, cause I totally don't live in a world where they've now made/displayed TWO red white and blue Punks.

Mattel always screws up the obvious it'll be a good fix up project for anybody who has the time to do that. 24.99+ for a figure to fix to your liking. Sounds like we're getting ripped a new one with some of these. Im not complaining though I like Mattels figures 100000xs more than Jakks.

IMO, possibly the worst WWE figure ever from Mattel. I wish it were only shades of color that was the problem. Mine's getting swapped out for the Entrance Greats head, gloves, arms, and boot covers when it gets here, anyway. Lol, I just read your post after I commented. We have to rebuild this whole figure.

The gloves/hat/boot covers are colored perfectly. Its a deep violet color, like it should be. The tie is whats the wrong color which im ok with even if it doesnt get fixed.

Uh, no. If anything, the gloves/hat/boots should be the same color purple as E1 Mysterio. Here's some comparisons and swatches for proof.

Pretty sure you posted endlessly about Punk's attire being red and not orange on TV too. SHOWS WHAT YOU KNOW. I hope they make a Ryback with airbrushed dicks all over his singlet just for you.

LOL Its purple and Ryback would never wear dicks on his singlet. That's just wrong.

It blows my mind that people are complaining about this. Have you forgotten the Undertaker released by Jakks? Purple tie, no hat, no coat, and best of all - WHITE boots/legwear. And now you're splitting hairs over shades of purple and comparing it to footage that is not color-corrected? C'mon. Additionally, yes, the flash will make the plastic gloves appear brighter than the fabric tie. /thread.

Yes, if we want to turn it into a 1990 Undertaker custom. Customising involves rebuilding figures. Who knew?

Who cares about Jakks? Completely irrelevant.
And again, the pictures were taken without flash.

My God, man. You're one of the most entertaining posters but sometimes...I was being facetious. Don't take rebuilding so literally. Although, he practically is. I think it's really the head sculpt that throws it off for me. I just don't like it. I also hate rubber jackets but that's not a big deal. I just remove them and throw them in a box.

Already did. It looks a little better there, but: Match ref, OP pic, e1 Mysterio, above pic Nobody's ever going to tell me that the Mysterio color isn't the right one. Nobody would ever have a problem with them using that color.

The color looks great, I don't see the problem. Remember, this is a prototype.
