Right bicep, both elbows, both upper thighs, and a tiny bit on the right lower calf. Both boots were spared the staining, so thats a plus i suppose. Lol. I'm glad this thread exists though. If i weren't tipped off to this problem, i would have been substantially more upset. I may look into some of these tips on removal, but i dont have any of the suggested items laying around and I'm not sure i want to sink any more money into this one figure after dropping 40 plus shipping on it already. This may have been answered already, but I've been out of the loop working overtime lately, does anyone know if the regular Rude figure has been suffering the same fate? The regular Rude also has staining on the arms and shoulders.Not so much on the legs and boots from what i've seen on IG.

It looks worse in pictures but still doesn't look that great in person either.

I hope we get them, too many incomplete stables and decent customs cost too much. I’ve got a custom Owen for my Foundation, but incomplete corporation, ministry, brood and nation does frustrate me. Thankfully Chyna is on the way for dx at least. Incomplete Too Cool as well😢

I believe some people have washed their robes and had them not stain after Yep. I wash every piece of soft goods when I receive them. Never have staining issues. Did u buy the exact same brand of stuff Axe showed us? I couldn't get to Wal-Mart today I'm gonna go first thing in the a.m. Did u use a non textured paper towel? I was going to try a q-tip. I'm very excited and very nervous to try this process.

Go easy on the lacquer thinner and don’t cover too much territory with the chemical. Be quick about rinsing and spray with the gloss to restore the sheen. Thanks man. What a game changer.

I’m happy to report I’ve restored my Rude. I used Lacquer thinner (I use this instead of Acetone, because I find it less harsh on plastic), Testors Gloss Coat (clear) spray and a non-textured paper towel. I made sure the paper towel had a good amount of lacquer thinner on it and used my fingertip to vigorously rub the stain away. I then ran the leg (only the thigh to calf portion) until cold water and used hand soap to dilute any remaining chemical on the leg. Then, I used my clamp and sprayed the gloss coat onto the leg (again, just the leg) to remove any “whitening” which appears after using harsh chemicals on plastic. I didn’t see the need to do this process with the arms, so I just swapped them with the pink Rude figure. Also swapped the boots, although the former boots are a half-shade darker than the latter. Hope this helps anyone: WOW that is incredible Axe!! I am getting some of that stuff right away.Good call on the boot and arm swap with elite40. Guess I'll finally open the extra I have from 5 below and do that as well.

Everyone who has gotten the Rude variant on Instagram that I've seen so far has had stains. And I'm sure they all will.I would also like to add that this process can literally take weeks to months. I've heard people say they have done it in days but I don't know how they possibily could.

Ill never believe anything gets stains out until I actually see someone post proof. More then once Ive seen people say "its works Ive done it" but yet nobody ever shows proof. Yeah I'm not A liar. Have u ever tried it?

As I said before that oxy cream really does work. But it takes awhile. I have had better luck with a hair dryer than sunlight.My Rude chase has some vicious stains on his legs and everywhere else. Gonna start the process sometime this week.

Is this the first time that a set went on for pre-order 3. Have a Fiend ordered on pre-order 2. I'm in no rush for him. I have never seen Pre-order3 before usually goes to back order after pre-order2.

Elite 47 since it had 12 figures. I personally always liked series 7.

Liv looks pretty good. A decent figure if u don't wanna spend $120+ on her elite.
