    Yeah it seems right. I wouldn’t consider the other stuff. Seem too harsh for rubber.

    On a side note, Amazon just canceled my preorder for Ultimate Edition Bret Hart.

    Did you buy direct from Ringside? I'm looking to buy one - but now I'm a bit worried about getting a stained one...

    From what I gather it doesn’t matter where one buy it, at this stage (in time) it’s very likely that the figure is already stained due to the length of time...it makes sense?

    This staining fiasco was so bad with Mattel that they packed the soft goods separately at one stage...but I think for some of the later releases, they reverted back to having the figure wearing the soft goods. Example, retro Honky and Flair.

    IMO if you are patient, just wait for the Mattel version...unless you don’t like the figures.

    I got it off of them through Amazon.

    It’s the second version with the white boots. Not sure when it came out. The original release, to this day mine is still perfect. I did notice the shirt is a different material. Even feels low budget compared to the originals. Kinda scared to wash it in fear of the graphic coming off. Tried alcohol unsuccessfully. Even on the belt, the letters started to come off. Such a shame. Oh well. Hopefully Mattel puts one out soon.

    Oh no! One should never use alcohol on any paints! :( 

    I’m surprised that your original release is stain free? Did you keep it on the whole time?

    Probably Storm did a good job in removing the excess dye the first time round.

    Yup. He’s been on my shelf since the day I got him. Maybe because the shirt hangs loose on him but no, there would be something on the shoulders but there isn’t. I got lucky or they did do a good job.

    WTF!?!?! A keychain????? I’d be pissed. Sorry to hear that. I hate ordering from China. One time I bought a bunch of Marvel Universe figures from one seller. I got Ben 10 toys. I got my money back and the seller blocked me. Lol

    Stupid ass Amazon. They cancelled my Ultimate Edition Bret Hart preorder saying they weren’t going to be able to fulfill my order. They went back up for preorder. They’re always emailing me about stuff I search, they couldn’t email me to tell me it was available again? Lol.

    I’d buy those for $12.99 and would like to see more. Also, does that Raw stage give anyone else the urge to smoke?
