RSC have put new pics up of the taker with the new straps down technology and it looks great! So many possibilities moving forward
What’s the next tweak or breakthrough in technology we need to add to the display possibilities?

My question is will that shirt dry out and crack/crumble? Or will it tear or stain over time?

How is that new tech? Very similar to Santana and Ortiz. Or do you mean, just Mattel? If so, yeah, I'm glad they're stepping up to compete with NJPW (S7) and Jazwares with attires. Enough of these cheap shirts/robes that would probably fall apart in a strong wind.

It might be fine for a plain black singlet like Taker here, but I’d be more concerned about anything with designs on it. I kind of hope they don’t use it for Bret or Angle elites because I prefer if wrestlers have the same design, BUT it would probably be better for ultimates since the torso cut is weird for singlets.

It looks good, but is it a better material than Shade’s shirt, Cena’s arm bands or according to some AEW’s rubber coated abs? |

On the other hand, it could be closer to the formula of the old Jakks hair-coat soft rubber and end up getting gross rather than drying out.

Is there any sort of rubber care / preserving product that could be used to prevent that? |

Is there any sort of rubber care / preserving product that could be used to prevent that? Not sure. If that Toy Biz TNA Kurt Angle figure hadn’t gotten canceled we would have some idea by now of how it would have held up for 10 years. Maybe the material used for Polly Pockets clothes. They did tear but that could have been because of how small they were. But my daughter had those as a kid and I just found some of them in a closet not to long ago and they didn’t look stained. But I do remember them being dust magnets back when she would play with them. |

The next type of technology could be the process to shift the facial structure around. To able to make ones head scan look angry to then shift it to look surprised if you chose to.
So there wouldn't be a need to have multiple head scans.

If they make the singlet out of the same material as the elbow and knee pads, it should be fine right? I don’t have many Elites from the start of the line, but the pads on the ones I do have are still fine.

I’d like a technology evolution for Mattel that eliminates the majority of their QC issues. Especially the paint app inconsistency.

I don't understand why a regular cloth tank didn't suffice...

Honestly I think the singlet looks very bad, and can only imagine how bad a singlet with any kind of detail would be.
It looks half decent with the straps down, and that's it.

I wouldn’t want them to replace the current hands. Something like an ultimate edition feature where one of the extra set of hands hand articulated fingers. |
