Just opened mine last night. Great figure, love the true FX on this scan and that they gave him better kickers. It does have some slight issues. First off Mattel needs to ditch the honeycomb leg joints. He can't do the splits without fear of it breaking. Also the left arm gets jammed up when rotating it and feels like it will break as well. I soaked him in boiling water and fixed the legs but feel like the shoulder still gets locked like they used the wrong joint torso combo. Overall still 8 out of 10 figure. Now I can convert my fix up back to All-Stars.

Are the back-order single Punk’s still due for November? It still says that if you follow the direct link to the figure. I pray it is accurate. I put it on the wish list so hopefully I get a notice in time |

Now I can convert my fix up back to All-Stars. Can confirm mine has the same shoulder issue, almost like it wasn't lined up correctly on the inside. Oh well, I am not posing it much let alone playing with it. Just hope the arm doesn't eventually falls off (flashbacks of the old Jakks ECW Punk). |

Recieved my cm punk and the left shoulder was real stiff at first and the legs are OK going forwards but sideways forget it they are stuck solid and the bar connected to the joint itself is just bending

Seems like multiple people are reporting the same left shoulder issue, which obviously sucks. Hopefully that gets fixed for the next shipments.

They are back to barely opening up and feeling like they will break. So that sucks. |

glad I’m keeping mine moc my other one will stay MOC. I guess I can swap the head to my All stars fix up or elite 16 and throw the rest into a drawer. Glad that 35 dollar price mark up just turned into fodder. I'm just hoping they get their crap together with his other figures |

My Punk had a huge black scuff mark down the forehead. Stuff like this really shouldn’t be happening for an exclusive collectors line.

Was thinking of not keeping in but once I got the Punk in hand, it’s a gorgeous figure. So thinking I’m going to hold on to it.
