Okay so I am finally home and put away all the series 6 stuff on my shelf and I can confirm 100% (though I'm sure it has already been explained by now) that the duplicate hands for Penta and Fenix are definitely for the series 2 figures. I appreciate that they made up for not including them in series 2, but to randomly throw them into series 6 without explanation is a little strange, and will be head scratching for those who don't have series 2 or didn't realize they were originally intended for those figures. If you have a QC problem with your figures, reach out to their customer service. It might take a while, but they'll send you a new figure. I went ahead and did this for Hager, so we'll see what happens Shida is the clear winner of Series 6. ONLY gripe is that her hands can't hold a kendo stick. ugh, just tried a Mattel kendo stick and she can hold it with both hands, but that's not how I planned to pose her. You go in depth on the good and bad and are super fair about it. Thanks for the continued thread! If anyone deserves pristine figures, it’s you. |

I don't get it, why would the extra fist be for Series 2 Penta considering he had gloves rather than taped fists? the only thing I can think of is that Penta usually takes at least 1 glove off to do the CERO MIEDO gimmick in someones face. |

I just got my order of Unmatched Series 1, and I feel a lot better about this wave than I did about Unrivaled Series 6. AEW Unmatched Series 1
 LJN Cody Rhodes
I think the concept is very cool for long time collectors who grew up with LJN's, I however did not so this really doesn't mean much to me. I honestly don't know if I'm even going to keep it. I figure by the time you have enough of these to actually make a good looking shelf, it's gonna be a while. Especially if they keep coming 1 every other set. Don't have the patience to wait that out. I do love the packaging and the nostalgia, but it's just not nostalgia for me, if that makes any sense lol.  Dustin Rhodes
I took the figure out of the package and without having my Series 2 Dustin with me, I could INSTANTLY tell the height was fixed. I am very glad they listened to the complaints. I sincerely hope they fix future Moxley releases.     Darby Allin
The TNT title is absurdly big on Darby, I don't think he ever wore it around his waist during his title reign, but it looks ridiculous on him, but a lot better on Miro. The belt strap feels a lot better on this, than the AEW world title from Unrivaled 6. The figure itself is really nice just like the first one.        Kenny Omega
I thought the series 4 was perfect, but I really like this one too, another really great Omega.     MiroI don't know Miro's height, but this feels a LITTLE short, but I could be wrong. I think it came out great, wish there was an alternate head with the hair color he has now.       Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D
The Doctor is in!! I am a big mark for Britt so I was very happy to finally get this. I don't think it's perfect though, the scan is okay, I wish the hair was slightly different, maybe not as spread apart and I hate the open palm gloveless hand.       I think this series was a solid start for Unmatched, a little something for everyone. I have all of Unrivaled series 7 on pre order, so the wait for that begins, and I sincerely hope that series can redeem itself from series 6. I have low expectations because I thought Nyla and FTR were rough, but we'll see! |

How does Darby's jacket compare to his Series 3 Jacket?

How does Darby's jacket compare to his Series 3 Jacket? it feels about the same, maybe a tiny bit thicker? I don't have the series 3 with me at the moment to compare, but it comes off still fairly easy. |

Just got my set in today. It's a very cool first wave and I actually love the LJN figure. I'm keeping my LJN ones in box to display as a throwback because obviously they don't fit into the scale. It's a neat sub-set though.

I don't know if it's a combination of the light and the way her hair is sculpted, but Nyla's face looks weirdly off-center.

My Unrivaled 7 FTR and Jurassic Express RSC exclusive figures came in the mail earlier this morning. I dont know if its because I removed the plastic, but the jackets are a pain in the ass to put back on FTR after youve taken them off. I dont really need them, so Im selling them on ebay.

I'm likely to get strung up for this, but I feel the quality of the AEW figures is declining with each series. FTR and Archer are real let down's.

Why all the hate on Jazwares FTR figures? I think they look great and better than anything Mattel made for them.

Wow, those FTR figures are bad. Has anyone on the team ever actually seen them? They don’t have lean, muscular torsos or skinny legs, and the Dax figure looms more effeminate than his ugly mug could ever hope to lol. Archer does look great though, shame I don’t give a damn about the guy

I really don't disagree with this, I'm not sure if its because Magic Olmos got moved to Unmatched and off Unrivaled or not, but I find it hard to believe that there would be such a dip in quality because of that when they all work for the same company. Why all the hate on Jazwares FTR figures? I think they look great and better than anything Mattel made for them. I definitely don't think Mattel did a good job with the overall Revival figures (way too small), but I feel that Mattel's headscans are 10x better than Jazwares, especially for Harwood. |

Archer is the only one I like from this wave. The first two sets of Bucks look nicer than these IMO, and FTR are brutal. Too bad neither Mattel or Jazwares have nailed them IMO. Nyla’s face looks off too, but not a fan so wasn’t interested in getting her figure to begin with.
