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 swear I read on a thread here that Mattel removed a piece in the torso of newer figures to save money. On some figures it works, but on several it creates that waist issue. Really annoying and might cause me to stop buying these figures altogether, honestly.

There use to be a plastic spacer put inside the stomach part to prevent loose torsos. |

Use a hair dryer and heat up the coat. Makes the plastic attire so much easier to remove.

I'll still never understand why 4 of the same figure is needed I collect MOC and loose. TRU had 3 packs of Lost Legends for $30 Canadian so I bought 3 packs all with Taker. I opened one as my loose figure and he was loose around the waist. I had planned to hold onto the other two to resell in a few years time, but I opened them to find one that wasn't loose, and they all were! I'm planning to use some super glue to make the joint tighter |

Note: I have two extra Takers if there are any... takers. (Gross pun)
I also have an extra Shawn Michaels (I have one mic already) lost legend if anyone wants one. I got it today in error from RSC

Mine had a super loose waist, I used the clear band that came with it to tighten it.
