I just got regular Rude from RSC. Staining on the arms. Its annoying that you pay good money for this and it comes damaged. Has this been addressed by mattel and/or rsc? I feel like I should be due a replacement without the staining and not have to fix it myself.

I hope it’s fixed with some kind of running change though

Okay results are in and I want to thank theaxehennig for what is possible the BEST solution to remove stains from figures! I wasn't so lucky, due to border slowdowns my June 10th order of chase Rick Rude arrived tonight - so he's been locked in his plastic prison under extreme heat clothed with a black robe whose ink had a good long time to soak through. So my weapons of choice: Got the Testors just like theaxehennig recommended, but this is the only lacquer thinner available in our Home Depots and Canadian Tires up here. Take a look at the befores (right) and afters (left): Not completely perfect because I rushed this because I was so excited to try it. But I can definitely live with these results!

Thanks Axe, thats very annoying but your solution is very appreciated!

Sheesh. I didn't get any of the new Rick Rude figures, but I'm still mad about my GAB Torrie Wilson. I wish I had the confidence to try the lacquer thinner method, but I doubt it would work anyway as those stains are over a decade old and set in deep.
Shame about the Rudes though. Hope you guys get them all worked out.

I decided to buy the chase Rude off Ringside this morning (even saved a dollar since it’s “damaged packaging,” haha). I’m nervous, but I’m hoping the staining is either minimal or none at all! Fingers crossed!

Just got mine a few days ago. Im not upset. The worst stain is on the left inner bicep but not too big. Back of both elbows have very very faint staining and the right outer forearm has a very light shadow too. But its not bad at all and have seen way worse.

I contacted mattel about the 2 I bought, I was hoping they would do an exchange once they did the running change, but they just offered me 2 random elite figures.

I was overexcited back when I saw the prototype of chase. I decided to keep it mock and when I saw robe covering the tights my feelings got killed and lastly when I saw staining I am dead. I am not interested anymore to pay 40 $ for this now
