I didn’t order the figure, nor will I get it on the secondary market. Just never wanted it and man oh man, I’m glad with my decision. I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND AND SUPPORT EVERYBODY’S GRIPE with this figure. When you’re shown a render, drop that amount of money and it’s nothing like what they showed you, you have a right to be pissed. So messed up.

Can't believe all these Influencers are getting them first and free while most of us had to pay for ours and still won't get it til July 🤦 Become an influencer, my man. Start a YouTube channel, offer something worthwhile, get 100k+ followers, get free figures. It's not easy, mind you. But you can have all you desire. I have a feeling that some of these "influencers" buy their followers. There's a well known guy that has a pic fed that has videos that get more views than Raw does. I don't believe for a second that those are real people that view his channel.

They made three different boot molds just for Cody You have said that a few times now and unless it’s on one of their chase figures what’s the third? There’s the boots used on all his Unmatched/Unrivaled and the Supreme? I just looked at all my Cody’s and I have them all minus his first two chase figures. And they’re all the same two boots. Idk man.. if you read all the descriptions of regular ultimate boxes they’re supposed to be the “ultimate wrestling action figure” And it’s definitely their premium line It’s still not a premium line. And this Cody would fit in with the regular UE’s. This is basically just like a RSC Exclusive. Which is basically a limited figure that could be released as a standard Elite/UE. The only reason it costs more is because it’s made in lesser quantities than your standard figures. Unrivaled 1, Unrivaled 4, and Supreme

Series 1 the blue on the straps are covering the snap details, but they are under the blue paint.

First of all, this figure is somewhat of a disappointment, here is my gripes
Every Cody figure is cockeyed on the straight faced scan, the other scans have foggy eyes for some reason, just seems to be a Mattel issue that’s going around with other figure as well
The paint color on the pants or horrible enough said there
The jacket is just no good, paying the amount of money we did for this figure seems like we could have gotten a better jacket, not a fan of it at all, I’ll be selling mine once I get it if anyone is interested
The torso is NOT a complaint, parts choice here is fine, I think the torso is the right way to go, rude torso would have worked as well but I think this is the better choice
To all those who are comparing this to the aew supreme figure, have you opened that figure? Do you know how horrible the joints are? How loose everything is? playability and movement wise the aew figure is probably the worst I’ve owned, only thing aew gets a win on is the screaming scan(not by much) and the coat, the UE Cody looks much better

Kneepads are sculpted to look like they are under the tights. Jazwares sculpted unique parts for Cody Rhodes, Mattel sculpted trunks legs in yellow, and called it a day. So depressing.

I'm a cody guy. Have been since his wwe debut. Jazwares won this imo. Will I buy this fig down the line probably 😆. I don't get the hate the supreme is getting. Jazwares Cody's are some of their best figures. I get what mattel was going for they just fell kinda flat. It happens hopefully they correct the issues. Just sucks for the ppl disappointed in a blind order basically or a really nice render.

Maybe you got a bad copy. I have three of each Supreme Cody figures (MIB, display shelves and one for photography) and the Cody figures are probably Jazwares best work as far as their AEW figures go. That said the Supreme figures were plagued with boot issues. I had to return/replace multiples of both supreme figures because their boots would snap off out of package.

Those tights on Cody are as yellow as my dad's eyes when we found him in the garage with the car running

I don't have this figure, nor plan to buy it in the near future, but is it possible to swap the AEW boots onto them? I think it's really cool that AEW gave Cody his own unique boot mold. My issue with AEW figures are the wonky proportions and the fact that they look like they're wearing diapers.

Cody Supreme: Pros- The coat with swappable arms The color scheme The accessories Cons- It's from jazzwares Ultimate Cody: Pros- It's from Mattel Cons- The coat The color scheme (🤮) Lack of accessories As it stands, I'm fine with the jazzwares figure, minus the loosely goosey butterfly joints.

People keep complaining about the color of the tights, but you know what it’s the lighting. For those worried about it not being the right dark shade of gold all you have to dim the lights. Make the room dark enough and you won’t even see that shade anymore. Problem solved. You’re welcome! 😂 😂
