I've noticed that on a lot of my older figures I have displayed and stored with the older style cloth shirts, the bottom of them is curling/rolling up, same with some of the sleeves.
Some of them are really bad, E1 Rey Mysterio especially.
Is there any way that these can be flattened out straight again and they stay that way? Anyone tried ironing/steaming or any other way that could work?
Cheers

I ironed my E1 & E5 Rey's shirt along with E7 Shawn's. Been good since.

They were awful. The glittery fabric shirts they do now (started with RTWM The Rock, I think?) look a bit worse in the material, but don't do that weird curling thing.
You're lucky if it's only happening now. I'm pretty sure with mine it happened about ten minutes after opening Elite 1.

I have a few of the old school shirts. Other than Bundy's, they all curl at the bottom. And they all shed. Each one of them drops little black pieces of fabric horribly. Those shirts are the worst.

This is why I don't understand the complaints about plastic shirts on this board. Those cloth shirts were terrible and never fit realistically, except for Cena who wears his cut differently.

I HATED the original cloth shirts. When they changed the material, they fit the figures so much better.

I dont have many original cloth shirts, but the ones I do have fit well (even if you have to get creative with the velcro in back) and figures can be posed with them. The plastic shirts pin the figures in one pose and often look huge on the figure. To each their own though.

Prior to about series 3 or 4 those shirts were horrible cuts of fabric too. The early ones don't fit, have giant loose neck holes, and have faded big time. The E12 shirts and up don't seem to fade and fit better, their only problem is that the are too shiny. Nothing at this scale particularly works well though.
