So, I have an affinity for Mox figures. He's one of my favorite wresters. The Unrivaled 9 is probably the best release overall, minus the height, and the STAINS!!!!! I have purchased a total of five UR9 Moxs, some for customs, and some in hopes of having no stains. All have been stained in various degrees. I use the zit cream method to remove the stains, but it takes literally a month to work. In frustration, I reached out to Jazzwares, pleading for them to rectify the issue. I was told my message would be passed along. I also complained to Jeremy on social media to no avail.
I guess this thread is to more or less to vent. The line is almost five years old. The stain issue should be resolved. Mattel solved the problem. And wrestling clothes customizers even produce non-staining items. Jazzwares should be able to do it as well.

I totally agree, I’ve reached out to Jazwares plenty of times about the staining issue. You would think they would fix the issue. That or put the cloth goods behind the figure or to the side. Definitely not on the figure if they’re not gonna fix the staining problems.

They wrap the figure’s arms and torsos in clear plastic that clearly doesn’t prevent staining since day one…they aren’t going to listen and change it now.

They wrap the figure’s arms and torsos in clear plastic that doesn’t clearly prevent staining since day one…they aren’t going to listen and change it now. I have a theory as to why the plastic doesn't help. My theory is that the factory is in such disarray, that they constantly put the cloth goods on the figures first to make sure that they fit (which were probably still wet when put on the figure) and then throw them in a bin. Once completed they move the bins over to packaging and then remove the cloth goods and place the plastic on the arms and torsos, then they put the cloth goods back on the figure and package them up (all this after the stains have set in). It's so stupid, but is my only explanation. The dye wouldn't bleed through the plastic if it was on in the first place, but because the factory is ran with little to know care and probably like a sweat shop, no one cares (I wouldn't blame them). Also, the shoulder seams are probably the last part to dry on the cloth goods, so that would explain why it's always the shoulders that get stained.

Staining should not be this big of a problem 4 years into the line.

It would be nice to have an avenue share major concerns like staining. As I said, I reached out to Jeremy on social media, but I know that's to no avail. He's too concerned with making figures harder to come by.

As I said, I reached out to Jeremy on social media, but I know that's to no avail. He's too concerned with making figures harder to come by. (incoming rant…) it’s funny you say that. AEW by Jazwares team sees everything so much so that Jeremy has blocked me on social media lol I’m not joking when I say they seriously don’t care. We complained about Bryan Danielson be too big for 3 years and when the finally fix it Magic calls us names for complaining. Wouldn’t be surprised if they come out and say “You won’t know the figure is stained if you don’t open it”. But this is AEW as a whole. For example Ricky Starks has been unhappy with the company for two years and everyone knows he’s headed to WWE soon but yet the Jazwares team decided to put him in an upcoming lineup instead of a brand new talent or someone who doesn’t have a figure yet. He’ll have a new AEW figure on shelves while he’s in WWE. They did the same thing with the Hardy’s, Cody, Ethan Page and Punk. There’s no one with a brain on that team to say hmm let me check the contract status of these wrestlers before we start to put these lineups out? They are incompetent. Simple.

At the end of the day, sub-par AEW figures are better than no AEW figures. It's just a shame because staining would be a quick fix: change the fabric material or package the garments off of the figure. Maybe one day...

Got the Ringside exclusive Owen in the mail yesterday and of course it’s stained. Such a dumb annoying problem. But I knew when I bought it that I would end up having to but an extra day of the Unmatched version to swap the torso.

What did he say about the Bryan Danielson being out of scale? during the reveals a few weeks back they showed the new Bryan Danielson figure he posted on his story “fine I fixed it jabroni” to those who pointed out the Danielson figures were bigger than Samoa Joe. Nothing too serious but if you know his personality he’s one of those guys who hates criticism.

One needs to apply the cream on the stain everyday then wipe it off and re-apply it. It works pretty well, but it may take a month. I am not sure if there are any long term negative effects, though.

This is a problem that goes all the way back to WWE elite 15 Yokozuna over a decade ago. No toy company should EVER package figures wearing black clothing in the box. Just have the clothing item packages separately in the box. It’s not that hard.
