I ordered Emma off Amazon, they had her in-stock and sold by Amazon. Something looked off...  I thought it was Mattel being cheap with the legs and reusing, but upon further research, it seems that 99% of the Emma figures I see have longer black boots. Mine look to have shorter boots, and wrinkles sculpted into the knee area, as if they were reused from a female buck for figures that needs attire with long tights. WTF? Anyone ever see this? I guess it's not awful, but I'm confused...LOL |

Who paints skin over tights molds and tights over skin molds?
Someone could maybe say that is Jakks-esque, but it's pretty typical Mattel behavior too. Hmm

Hmm Jakks did it at least once with the R3 Ric Flair. They gave him Edge's legs in flesh color. Mattel has done it a few times... The first Elite DiBiase. His upper hips were long tights legs molded in flesh color. But they have also done the opposite a few times. Used the bare leg molds as long tights. E24 Triple H has regular legs painted tights colored. SummerSlam Triple H also uses trunks legs molded in purple to look like long tights. The new BP Hawk also uses trunks legs molded in black to look like tights. |

My Emma has the short boots but she doesn't have the wrinkles in her knees. Parts must have gotten mixed up in production.

My Emma's like that, got flesh pants below the knee and what I believe are AJ boots.

You're not the only one with an Emma like that. The first pic of Emma we saw before it was released had the same problem.  |

Mattel seems to be having some manufacturing errors lately. Yoko with the wrong arm, Stardust with the Goldust head, now this. I contacted Mattel and wanted me to send the figure back because their QA guys wanted to take a look, but they were only willing to send a voucher for the retail cost not including tax. I'm not paying tax twice so they can fix their f**k up.
My point is, let Mattel know. They'll send you a way you can email pics to them so they can see. They might ask you to send the figure back to them, but you don't have to. I didn't.

My Emma looks like it has less calf length and no wrinkles. I got mine from RSC, is the the wrinkle skinned one a running change for the worse?

She looks like she'd be taller, too.

She had AJ's calves. |

I remembered seeing that on the leaked proto pic but not on the ones taken by Ringside. It must have been a very early production run issue that was fixed.

A lot of Emmas have the 'wonky eye'.
I don't recall any with all the wrinkles on the legs.

I'm sorry, this must be an optical illusion, but the left boot looks like an Undertaker boot.

Everyone knows Emma has granny knees in real life. If you stopped looking at her lady parts long enough you'd notice it too.

Guess I can live with the granny legs for now. Not too noticeable from a distance. I'll keep her in package and try to find one at retail, unless I get weak and need to open. :\ |

She had AJ's calves. The only thing Emma has from AJ are the boots, everything else(Besides the head & one hand) are the same molds used on Melina. TBH I think she's better off with the shorter legs, as the calves in the OP's picture(Which look to be the ones used for Tamina) would make her almost the same height as Paige(Paige is 5'8, whihe Emma is about 5'4) |
