Undertaker [WWE Superstars/Series 3]

Masters of the WWE Universe was a fun toy line by Mattel featuring WWE wrestlers as MOTU characters. It was a fun series that used the MOTU Origins bodies and weapons that was totally interchangeable with Origins toys similar to Turtles of Grayskull. When the line ended, it shifted to a traditional wrestling toy line featuring the WWE wrestlers in their classic gimmicks. This new line, WWE Superstars has been running fairly successful ever since. Interestingly enough, these toys still use the MOTU Origins bodies and are still interchangeable with other Origins figures. That's pretty neat! Personally, I wasn't interested in these but have noticed their popularity with MOTU fans. There is a lot of customizers in the MOTU fandom and Origins bodies are made with that in mind, The joints and body parts can be disassembled with ease and combined with others.

These WWE figures are basically blank He-Man bodies perfect to use. My mother is an avid clearance aisle shopper who picked up this Undertaker figure from the toy line because she knows I like the Undertaker. Despite not being to interested in the line, it was neat to get one and of a wrestler I've always liked. The figure is based on The Undertaker's early 90's appearance around when the character first debuted. The figure is a MOTU Origins body with a pretty decently sculpted head that even has his hairstyle from that era. He features a removable hat with a cloth overcoat and tie. Underneath the coat, it's mostly a painted Origins body but with boots to match his 90's ring gear. The Undertaker even comes with extra hands to swap out so you can recreate some of his poses. This is a pretty cool concept that reminds me of in the 80's when companies like Remco would take the molds from their fantasy figures to make wrestler toys. Even though I don't have the urge to make a custom MOTU figure, I can see in this figure alone how all the parts would be just right to use. It's also a pretty great representation of The Undertaker from his early years. I'm pleasantly surprised with this toy and it's overall neatness. It's pretty great.
