Well I'm stumped, I have traded for many figures in the past that were in peoples attics, and storage units, and boxes and in all my years I have never came across a figure that has this problem. Now I went through with my normal cleaning of him, and I tried some other methods of cleaning Big John Studd's legs (it is only the legs) inside the knees, the crotch, are the factory white. But It turns out the plastic seemed to have changed from white to a cream color on just the legs. So how many of you have come across this issue and was a this problem for anyone else?
However, before anyone says anything I knew this way ahead of time before I got the figure, the guy show plenty of pictures of it. I just thought it was a bit dingy from sitting in a storage container. But however we both have now found out, it has to be a change in the coloring in the paint or plastic it was molded in. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue with this figure?

I have 4 of those, and luckily have not had that issue, my Strike Force on the other hand have portions of the tights that have turned yellow. On the bright side, you can list it on ebay as a variant, or break it into pieces and say it's a rare prototype. |

Cheap white plastic yellows over time. Just like the OSFTM ECW bubbles and the SNES.

Hasn't happened with mine, but I remember before Mattel got the WWE license people were complaint about the white colored tights "yellowing" I remember reading about CS1 HBK, CS BIg John Studd and JYD turning.

My JYD has pink tights now. Though that's probably because I dropped him in a glass of Ribena. |
