Just pop the new head on an old grey glove elite with the cut sleeves and transfer all the new accessories over...bam!...fixed well someone shouldn’t have to do that to have it more accurate, but I will be keeping mine MOC anyway 100% agree with you, BUT, if someone is concerned about accuracy, it's an easy fix. And since you will keep it MOC, it shouldn't matter, but i do get your point nonetheless.

Sure it’s doable, but then it should just come that way - customers shouldn’t have to own/acquire an older figure to fix up a purchase.

This is an instance where I'd love to hear/read the rationale for the part choice. Was it a mistake on Design or the factory? Is there a logistical reason we have no idea about? These sorts of mistakes/issues are strange, especially when we know the parts already exist and have been used on a previous iteration of the character.

But it is a shame the Undertaker figure doesn’t have the cut shirt sleeves (like the picture on the back of the box). Not sure the reason why it doesn’t as the shirt mould does it exist, but don’t think he ever wore the WM12 style shirt (without cut sleeves) with the grey attire. Is this confirmed? The following image shows both (conflicting), so it's unclear to me.

Undertaker kinda sucks here, but the purchase will be worth it just for The Kid and Razor. Kind of dig the letters as well.

I just found it in store and they gave me 25% off to match the price I had locked in from a circle offer in October. So I canceled that one and now I’ve got this one added to the collection
Also had Legends 17 Warrior out as well as several UE 15 Borks

I've never been more disappointed in a figure, especially now that those Ultimates have been dangled in front of us - those are incredible. Terrible head, terrible part choices, terrible color choices (again) and that's the worst part of the whole deal. Somebody over there needs to get to the bottom of this color situation, they botch so many iconic attires with awful color choices. These greens are all too warm. Just call in a favor to Chalkline and ask what TCX/PANTONE code they were using, they nailed it. Bummer man.

Just call in a favor to Chalkline and ask what TCX/PANTONE code they were using, they nailed it. Bummer man. Completely agree. Unless my eyes are failing, I see three shades of green used - the vest/elbow pad, the trunks/knee pads, and the boots. And none of them are the actual green that Razor even wore. Truly pathetic.
