Quit your F’n bitching!!! Everybody has an issue with something , Joly crap they are F’n action figures —they are never going to be perfect , I get. 30$ price point is a lot but if you got to ask -then you can’t afford it!! Be happy we got one finally!! If you don’t like them don’t buy them , it’s Christmas Day quit Bitching Get off the soap box this is bad, that paint app- this joint, this articulation, the Hair, Gee/wiz come on , I don’t like it either I wish people in Hell got ice water but you know what !!! They don’t! It’s just like anything else when you out source work it is never going to be perfect, there is no such thing as perfection anymore , not many people take pride in what they do , that why things are the way they are , it sucks I know but there is nothing we can do about it except stop buying the figures and I myself am going to support the line because I can fix most of the imperfections myself, and I like them and I keep them MOC , some of them I open to display , Now when the price goes up in a few years by 2 or 3 bucks I’m out!!! Look at marvel legends started at 7-12 bucks a figure they had crazy articulated movement -a lot of BiG accessories, now less articulation, less accessories and 20-25$ price point depending !!! It’s coming can’t wait to get The Hardy Boys Merry Christmas everyone I’m done complaining...... 👍peace

I agree a lot of complaints in this board seem ridiculous to me. But this is just too much. It's not even like it's a slightly different shade of brown or something. IT'S GREEN. WTF!? THAT'S BAD.

Natural light I see brown with a blonde or light brown wash to it. With a camera flash it saturates the wash making the hair a light brown or blonde. But I don’t see green. Now the painted flesh tone torso I do have a problem with. Especially because day one (NYC Toy Fair 2010) they said they would never do that. God forbid the figure chips you will almost never be able to match the flesh color to fix it. Luckily mine is very clean in that regards.

If/when I get it Ill probably repaint the hair. The hair has never looked right. I feel like Mattel is starting to mail it in though like JAKKS did when they found out their contract was running out. I think Mattel reupped their contract until 2019 or something like that but I never heard anything official. Im actually starting to wonder how much longer Mattel has and with all the changes to cut costs...Im wondering if they're just buying their time until someone else takes over.

For that price paint should be right. That's ridiculous. If it was $10, sure, I'd agree. But that's way too much money to be screwing such simple things up. Sorry that’s a lot of money for you. They are toys. The end. You think this was an anti Mattel forum. Complain complain complain. Can we get an official complain thread so I don’t have to see this crap Do it a favor to all of us and please don't see this and others threads and even more important don't comment. I agree with the most of here. The figure has more negative points than positive... Green hair, price, painted torso... Mattel being Mattel. They don't care about figures they know will sell very good. Look at AJ Styles figures... Ridiculous...

Agree 100% on the torso paint. Didn't know they said that, that's upsetting

I see green in the first pic and yellow in the second lol And torso and arms color don't match... EG Kurt Angle figure, sorry, but "You suck!"

But it could be a lighter shade of brown that comes off as blonde on the darker brown. But on natural light it is just giving his hair so hilights. But it certainly isn’t green like others are saying.

Already have it chum, Its called Wrestlingfigs Forums. Maybe you prefer something else? That’s true very true. Thought maybe this was more of friendly forum that enjoyed Mattel. Not filled with cheap, poor and angry geeks "Friendly"? You mean, as in how you've been friendly here in this thread thus far? That's a type of friendly we don't need. But hey, keep on keeping on Bangarang.

Can we get an official complain thread so I don’t have to see this crap You want an official complaint thread so you can avoid threads like this one? Hmm...if only the OP had named the thread something straight forward like "Green haired Kurt Angle has horrible paint apps" so you could have saved your precious time and avoided it altogether. Oh wait. What was your former username before you were banned and came back as Pepsi Max? As for the Kurt figure, the hair color is pretty bad and the painted torsos are always awful. It's really unbelievable how bad Mattel can be when it comes to getting the right hair color.

Some of you are in the hobby of bitching, not collecting.
The amount of claims that always turn up about QC issues is just ridiculous. Until a more expensive manufacturing process is used, expect minor flaws.
Either some of you are straight lying or are nitpicking a $30 figure.
It’s threads like this that have caused bill to stay far away most the time.
