I received my Umaga this morning and the feet are stuck, so no, he doesn't stand. I'll have a go at loosening them when I've got time. Also, I'm disappointed that they've used the same ratchet leg joints that they used on E31 Vader. Won't move at all. I've been beaten. I managed to get the ankle joints to move, but they're now so weak that he still can't stand. The leg joints are still stuck, and I can't even put him on display. Very disappointed as I wanted to use him in my pic fed at some point.

Looks like we will probably have this issue with all barefoot figures. Have had the problem with Kamala, Rusev and now Umaga. Wonder if a smaller mold (if they ever make another Snuka) would have the same issues.

He'll stand, but his legs are very loose.

He'll stand, but his legs are very loose. Yeah, mine eventually did, it just took some tweaking and positioning. Was not easy at all. And my Kamala was worse, just ended up putting him in the back row of my display to lean him against the wall.

I'm starting to scale back on my collecting, so it's not that big of a deal, but it is disappointing all the same.

Did anyone find a solution for this? Just got mine today
He has those weird stiff legs that some of the other big guys have (Vader, Mark Henry), then his feet seem to be stuck in place. Can they be moved with warm water or elbow grease?

All Umagas will have a problem standing up. Its not easy working with figures that are barefoot. but thats the beauty of being a collector, you should always find a way. Keep his left ankle the way it is, and push his right ankle all the way front I kinda prefer him standing like this...

I just heated up his ankles in some hot water and repositioned the feet. Stands perfectly fine now.

Heated the ankles and he's standing like a pro now
It is a bit of a joke though You can't stand him up if you collect to display, you can't move his legs if you collect to play Makes you wonder how these things even leave the factory...
