Does anybody know how to take of The Undertakers coat in Elite 23?
I have got it off, but that took around 10 minutes and that almost broke the figure...
Anyone got any helpful tips?

I got mine off using a blade..just sliced it at the bottom and just starting tearing it until it came off. Then threw it in the trash...that thing was a pain..I don't even wanna imagine putting it back on him.

I just angled the arms slightly backwards, moved the coat breasts over the shoulders and slid it down the arms. It took maybe a minute tops. Getting it back on was harder because the wrists kept bending in the sleeves. But even that wasn't more than 3 or 4 minutes.

Q: Is it the same mold as E1 Taker's jacket?

I think the assembler at the factory did this to my Undertaker by forcing the arm in ways they shouldn't bend:

Best way I've found to remove the plastic coats is to boil some water and put the figure in it until the plastic turns nice and rubbery and its a whole lot easier to remove that way. I've used that method with all of the figures that came with the plastic jackets.

It's the hardest coat to take off, I think because of the gloves. It seems to chip them slightly every time it comes off.

It's so disappointing because that figure is one of my most wanted figures currently and knowing how much of a pain in the ass it's going to be to take off sucks.

I agree. There seems to be so much of a hassle to take it off, just entices me to keep it in MOC.

I got it off - was a huge pain in the ass - and left it off. instead,I use the cloth version I got from the R-guy that I had on my custom purple and black Taker for nearlyh 2 years.

I didn't have too much trouble and did pretty much the same thing PJ did. I haven't put it back on though and I have him displayed without the coat, hat and tie.

I actually like it, wasn't that much of a pain to get off but it did take a few tries. I put the EG coat on him and didn't like it, so rubber cot it is.
The way I ended up getting it off is move it down one shoulder, then pull the arms back and slide it down the other shoulder. Should come off that way.

This sounds like a pain lol this IS a child's TOY after all lol, why would they make it so hard? I elite'd my EG taker so this taker will be displayed without his entrance gear when I get it. I find even in the pics he looks way better without the entrance stuff...
