I'll still never understand why 4 of the same figure is needed Not saying this is what Gorilla is doing, but a lot of scalpers buy up the quantity of sought after figures to make money on the secondary market. It's the bane of collecting. Yeah he's obviously not doing that as 3 of them are open

I have the E22 (23?) Taker and have never even considered taking the coat off. A monumentous pain in the @$$ that would be.

Yeah he's obviously not doing that as 3 of them are open I may sell 1 or 2 way down the road, or use them in trades. I only need one MOC and one loose

Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

It's the bane of collecting. I saw like, six Becky Lynch figures at Walmart and thought of buying them all to sell the others to people who needed them at fair prices (They were at Walmart for $7.77 so I would've done like, $10 each) but then I was like, ugh, effort. I'm too lazy to scalp. I don't know how people do it.

I don't plan on ever putting it back. I have a Legends on the way because I saw one at the store the other day and noticed they corrected the purple on this one. Now hearing about this loose waist stuff I'll have to take feet and hands off and put them on the old Elite one.

I own 4 of this figure. 1 is MOC and the other 3 have all been extremely loose in the waist swivel and neck joint. The entrance coat is a nightmare to take off. Has anyone else had this experience? I wish they could make an Undertaker with a entrance coat like DM Sting! I have one, but it was purchased as nothing more as a display piece (because I think it's a killer figure) so I've opened mine to pose on a shelf, but I haven't tried to take the coat off (because I HAVE taken other ones off different Takers and it was a nightmare). Hopefully this isn't a large scale issue.

After I got the coats off my Takers, I picked up a couple extra SummerSlam heritage Basic Takers, and put the entrance gear on them.
