Man when Mattel gives us rubber jackets, ppl complain, they give us soft goods, ppl still complain! Make up your minds Marks It’s situational. Works in some cases doesn’t in others. With how heavy Cody’s jacket is and the materials used I think the rubber we got in the Supreme edition works perfectly.

Man when Mattel gives us rubber jackets, ppl complain, they give us soft goods, ppl still complain! Make up your minds Marks Well thats a pretty broad stroke. One person said it looked wrinkly and two others said it could be improved. And usually when there's a problem with rubber accessories, its accessories that are just restrict the figure, stain the figure, fall apart, or just look bulky and bad. AND, usually its in the Elite line, which is the line that does not have the ability to swap on new torsos and arms to make a 2-in-1 looking figure. Plus we have a reference for how good this exact jacket can look if its made rubber with swappable arms, because they already out in the AEW Supreme line. When someone says something other than soft good would have worked, they don't mean the early Undertaker coats that you had to break off a hand to get it off the figure. They mean a rubber long duster section with some molded/swappable arms with full posability -- like we've seen in the UE line before. Who's Mark?!

Man…the Supreme jacket is LIGHTYEARS better than this. I can’t grasp how people prefer soft goods to Polly pocket rubber sometimes and this is a crystal clear case. That paper thin wrinkly material looks like garbage. The face sculpt looks like crap too. I ordered one of these and I’m really disappointed. The packaging is easily the best part which is sad. The face sculpt is the best part imo. I find that it blows the Supreme faces out of the water, those things look hideous lol. At least with these you can tell who it is from just looking at the headsculpts. I can't help but see a smiling blonde BrettO when I look at the default Supreme head Yeah, I have a few of the AEW Cody figures and I like them just fine, but something about those Supreme figures seemed really off to me. The jacket here isn't perfect, but it doesn't bother me. I'd rather get this jacket with what I think will be the superior figure over the rubber/arm swap one with the unsettling Supreme figure.

The problem is that jackets with as much detail as Cody’s and others lend better to the molded plastic versions. I still hate the elite ones, but Supreme and UE have the changeable molded arms. Something like Charlotte/Rics robes, Seth’s jacket, t shirts, all look better soft goods.

Other than Flair’s robes and Sting’s duster this is probably the best soft good jacket/coat they’ve made in the WWE line. That said judging from this pic it looks like it was made out of the same material as the Entrance Great’s HBK’s entrance gear. And if that’s the case I know it will not hold up very long. I noticed while updating pics for my “some of my favorites” thread my EG HBK’s entrance gear was breaking down. And it wasn’t from any wear and tear of playing with it, because for the decade or so I’ve had it since it’s release it’s just been displayed standing on a shelf.so if that’s the case i don’t see this coat faring any better in time.

The coat is awful, I paid more for this figure than the Supreme, which had a better jacket and two attires, this figure didn’t even get the only attire right color wise
I’ll probably sell this figure off honestly

Don’t care what anyone says, it’s a great looking figure.
I’ll never be convinced that wfigs will ACTUALLY be fully satisfied with something 🤣

I’ll never be convinced that wfigs will ACTUALLY be fully satisfied with something 🤣 Yeah, I'm still super excited for it and really glad I went in on one. I honestly feel like the coat will look really like once it's a) out of the package and b) posed on the figure in a more dynamic, less static stance than we've seen to date.

While I don’t think the coat looks perfect, it’s much better than I expected.
The molded swappable arms would probably look better but idk. I like to be able to move and flow the longer robes/jackets so I’m cool with it.
I have both Supremes and like them both but I’ve gotta be honest and say to the ones who think the Supreme is that much superior than this Ultimate… sell me whatever you’re smoking. Because that’s some good sht, pal!

Other than that, I'll take the Molded coasts with separate arms to pose or a Polly Pocket rubber vest for Stone Cold etc...

I'll keep saying it, they should've done the plastic, molded arms like Jazwares did with Cody or Mattel does with Hitman.

Weight belt Torso comes off Can swap parts easier Tattoo isn’t on his face Boots are unique and not generic Jacket looks better and accurate with molded arms that still allow movement Completely pinless The only issues with it are QC, which Mattel also sucks at
