I'm telling you, man, Mattel is slipping lately. More and more issues are starting to creep up.

Man that’s terrible…I was really looking forward to this one too. Where is the quality control??? the words "quality control" get thrown around so freely... this is a design issue, not quality control. |

It would have to be with whoever designed the shirt like Hogans NWO one. Which sucks. You’d think WWE of anyone would have rights to their own merchandise… |

The more I stare at it then more it looks like one figure is placed on top of the other

They must have been cease and desisted back then. |

I sent that picture of the Eddie UE to my friend who was having a panic attack thinking it might distract him.
It not only ended his panic attack immediately, he couldn't stop laughing at it until he almost passed out. He couldn't get past it. He kept looking at it and laughing all over again.
It fixed him.
So maybe, not all bad?

For a basic figure, it would be one of those "it is what it is" scenarios. However, this is topline priced which makes it inexcusable.
The torso makes Eddie look like his character model from that "All Stars" arcade-style videogame. Not fair to expect people to pay a premium price if they are not willing to invest in more diverse body parts for this line.

I said before and I will say it till the end.
Ultimate Edition is out of scale.
Elite is and will always be the most accurate in any series.

Maybe Eddie just skipped leg day a lot?
