Saw this today but passed for now. Would have been an instant pick up if razor and kid had new heads.

Just bought it at my nearby Target. Love the RAW letters and the "Lightning Kid." Every Razor I saw had problems with the paint on the head or the kneepad.
But the thing that irks me the most... why in God's name is the Undertaker SO TAN. Black glove 'Taker is pale. Both gray glove 'Takers I have before this one are pale. PurpleTaker is pale. Why is this thing borderline hotdog tan?!?!?!?

Anybody willing to help me out my with this set? With all these imperfections (especially Razor), I really fear to order it via ebay or whatever without being able to check its condition.
So mm if anybody would be no willing to help am fellow collector from overseas, I’d highly appreciate. Of course I’d compensate you.

That Undertaker is just perfect Undertaker is too tanned and the coat is too short, so it's far from perfect imo. |

Did the Mattel design B team work on this? I don't remember Steve or Bill ever mentioning the Raw set in any reveals or presentation in any capacity. The tan taker, mismatched green Razor, the generic heads and body choices. Seems so mid.

I feel a little better about missing out on this over in the UK.
This is the version of Undertaker we've needed for years, however it's way too tanned!
Razor is seriously flawed - so many different shades of green. It just looks ugly.
Kid is cool but not enough of a draw to make me want to spend the money. Same for the RAW sign.
Disappointing from Mattel!

This and legends 17 were the last to release from that set of reveals |

This is something that's bugged me for years with Mattel figures of Undertaker and Kane but the girth is too thin. It would be nice if Mattel started to correct this.
Does anyone else think this needs to be addressed?

Saw it at two out of my three local Targets, but my preorder shipped yesterday, so I'm all set!

One minor minor complaint I have about kid is, we now have both his attires from 1993 (which are similar anyway) and none from 1994-1996, where he had a ton of different and colorful attires. Hopefully they right this wrong the next few years.

Any of those will due. |

Seeing the reviews of them in hand is disappointing, especially for Razor.
It seems like all 3 figures were poorly executed for some reason... Taker's odd skin tone, Razor's 3 shades of Green & non TrueFX head, and Kid's non TrueFX head.
Razor's Green attire is in my top 3 favourite for him along with the Purple, and Red. So to see how the final product looks is really disappointing, how do you miss the mark that bad? Hopefully it's just an error with an initial run of them, and it gets a running change fix soon, along with Taker's skin tone. Otherwise, hoping we can get a word from Steve about the odd colours and if anything will be done.
Regardless, i'll still get the Razor somehow, just because it's Razor, and hopefully after a running change if there will be one. Otherwise i'll just deal with it and maybe put an IC Title around his waist to hide it a bit.

Seems like both 3 packs were rushed.
Brock being too short, Roman being too tall and this packs issues takers tan, razors 50 shades of green, and kid with the same head yet no new tech.

That Undertaker is just perfect Agreed. This is the one I've been wanting since day one. I don't think he's too tan, I think most of Mattel's other figures from the Golden/New Gen eras are too pale. |
