WWE Mattel Elite Series 85 Undertaker (Boneyard Match)

The latest Undertaker Mattel Elite style action figure is modeled after his last match at WrestleMania 36 - the Boneyard Match! Now, Mattel always nails their Undertaker figures but they went next level and hit a homerun here. Undertaker is fitted with a brand new headscan, a new ponytail hairstyle, brand new molded pants and vest with molded designs and a removable bandana. Also included is a brand new accessory to the line - a breakable shovel. All others can Rest in Peace, because the Figure of the Year is rollin' on in.

 

Funko WWE Mystery Minis Series 1 & Pint Size Heroes Undertaker (Mystery Box & Blind Bag)

I'm a sucker for mystery boxes and blind bags, so naturally when you combine that with Undertaker I'm sold! Released apart of the Mystery Minis Series 1, the Undertaker is in his traditional singlet and tights but without any tattoo work which was disappointing. The Pint Size Heroes Undertaker also is missing tattoo work but with his logos on the sides of his tights and an oversized hat is a welcomed addition! Gotta love small mystery figures, they really make a collection!

 

Funko Pop! WWE Undertaker #81 Boneyard Match Vinyl Figure (Amazon Exclusive)

The latest incarnation of the Undertaker at WrestleMania 36's Boneyard Match was immortalized by Funko and released as an Amazon exclusive. This was the first Undertaker Funko Pop with tattoos because the others had coats and cloaks - and that really adds something to the figure. From his ponytail to his expression, Funko captured everything that is the Undertaker!

 

Funko Pop! WWE Undertaker #08 Vinyl Figure

The Deadman was first immortalized as a Funko Pop in his classic hat and duster. Although he would get more incarnations made in Funko form, I have a soft spot for the first one here. It's classic Funko - He's cute, simple, and purely recognizable. Long live the Deadman!

 

Funko Pop! WWE Undertaker #69 Vinyl Figure (Regular & GITD Exclusive)

Now I'm not really a Funko person, but I will always collect anything Undertaker related so naturally whenever they release Pops of him I pick them up. 2 Years ago, Funko released the WrestleMania 28 version of him in the regular line, but in 2020 he got a makeover! As apart of the 30th Anniversary of Undertaker merchandise blitz, Funko rereleased this version but made him Glow in the Dark and made him exclusive to Amazon & WWEShop. Naturally, since both boxes had 2 different stickers, I had to get both exclusives!

 

WWE Mattel Elite Legends Series 9 Undertaker (Target Exclusive)

At SummerSlam 1994, Paul Bearer's Undertaker returned to face his greatest threat at the time, himself! Ted DiBiase told the WWE Universe that he had bought the Undertaker's services, but Paul Bearer knew better. Now wearing purple to make himself different from his original grey attire, the Phenom had returned with a vengeance. This Mattel Legends figure depicts his 1994 return and the Phantom mask he wore in 1995 after his orbital bone was broken. Truly a massive upgrade over the last 2 1994 Purple Elite attires Mattel had made.

 

WWE Mattel Elite Series 79 Collector's Edition Undertaker (Walmart Exclusive)

At Survivor Series 1990, the Undertaker rose from the dead and the WWE Universe was never the same. At Survivor Series 2020, the Undertaker rose once more and said goodbye to the same WWE Universe that was his home for the last 3 decades. Mattel paid tribute to this incredibly legacy with a special exclusive Elite figure that includes a brand new headscan, an extra set of hands, a removable hat and special designed rubber jacket. Depicting his final 2019-2020 run in the WWE, this Undertaker is one for the ages. The Deadman lives forever!

 

WWE Mattel Battle Pack Series 66 Undertaker & Roman Reigns

At Extreme Rules 2019, the Undertaker and Roman Reigns defended the Yard in an amazing match that proved the Undertaker still had it and the Graveyard Dogs were a force to be reckoned with. Mattel recreated this awesome tag team match in a battle pack form complete with the PPV chair. Although I wish they would've gave Taker a different headscan, it still work as it captures his tombstone pin perfectly. Graveyard Dogs 4 Life!

 

WWE Mattel FlexForce WWE Champions John Cena vs Undertaker (Target Exclusive)

Before the Wrekkin' line, there was FlexForce and each figure had a special action! You can recreate moves and in this pack particular a WWE Championship is included for them to battle over. Hook Throwin' John Cena faces Fist Poundin' Undertaker in the FlexForce arena! Now, if only Undertaker and John Cena could've been battling over the Championship at WrestleMania years before their encounter took place. Oh what could've been!

 

WWE Mattel Fan Central Battle Pack Sting (WCW) vs Undertaker (WWE)

In 2019, Mattel released these Fan Central "Dream Match" battle packs featuring matches the WWE Universe would like to see. Featuring Surfer Sting from WCW and the Original Deadman from WWE, we are treated to exclusive accessories as well! Included are a Sting surfboard, a breakable tombstone and a shovel. Plus, a foldable steel chair that is always plentiful in wrestling battle packs. Besides Sting vs Undertaker, the other matchup chosen was Seth Rollins vs Edge, which I never thought of to be a dream match but oh well! Unfortunately, both of these matches never happened and will have to be fought in fig feds and video games. The Deadman would take the win by the way!

 

WWE Mattel Battel Pack Series 11 Undertaker & Kane (Family Fury)

In late 2010, the Undertaker reignited a decades old rivalry with his little brother Kane after it was revealed that Kane was the one who incapacitated him earlier in the year. The feud boiled over 3 PPVs and brought back Paul Bearer from the dead, just for him to betray the Undertaker again! This feud is portrayed here by Mattel as awesome basic style figures and to prove that no matter how close family is, there's always room for bad blood. 

 

WWE Mattel Battle Pack Series 6 Undertaker vs Batista (Ultimate Rivals)

From WrestleMania 23 to TLC 2009, these two monsters battled each other for over 2 and half years over the World Heavyweight Championship. Undertaker managed to defeat Batista in their first 2 outings, then Batista evened up the score at the next 2 PPVs (1 with the help of Edge) and finally the Undertaker reigned supreme when they met again at TLC 2009 in a brutal Chairs match. Sometimes you just can't keep a good feud down for Ultimate Rivals!

 

WWE Mattel WrestleMania 34 Battle Pack Roman Reigns vs Undertaker

Depicting their battle at WrestleMania 33, this Mattel 2-Pack gives us both Roman Reigns and the Undertaker in their basic black attires. I always loved this headscan of Taker as it was seen multiple times in Mattel's lines (WrestleMania Heritage, Series 71 and WrestleMania 35 Elite) and this Reigns is basic but it fits in just fine. If only the actual match outcome was different!

 

WWE Mattel Battle Pack Series 33 Shawn Michaels & Undertaker

Shawn Michaels and Undertaker feuded off and on again from 1997 to 2010 and where responsible for some of Undertaker's most iconic matches and moments. Mattel included Shawn Michaels from their 1997 Hell in a Cell match and instead of giving us either a 1998 or 2010 Undertaker they instead went with his 2014 mohawk look at the time which never feuded with HBK. Although the figure choices were odd, I still love the 2-pack that showcased an iconic feud!

 

WWE Mattel Battle Pack Series 38 Bray Wyatt & Undertaker

The Undertaker returned in 2015, one year after his worst defeat at the hands of Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania XXX where he snapped the Streak. Two underrated classics at WrestleMania 31 and again at Survivor Series later that year against Bray Wyatt proved that the Undertaker still had it and was not going to Rest in Peace. Mattel showcased that feud here with a breakable tombstone and two great basic figures. Sometimes less is more and you get that here with Taker - simple outfit and a great headscan!

 

WWE Mattel Battle Pack Series 25 CM Punk vs Undertaker

I always love 2-packs that illustrate feuds, especially when they are as iconic as this one! CM Punk will go down as the final opponent of the Undertaker's famed Undefeated WrestleMania Streak. With the addition of Paul Bearer's real life death into their feud added a special fire and made it personal. Undertaker dedicated that 21-0 victory to Bearer's memory and it will go down as one of Taker's finest moments.

 

WWE Legends Domez Series 1 Undertaker (Regular, Clear Chase & Rare Gold)

Blind bags are one the most fun yet irritating things in the collecting world, especially when you want a particular character. When Zag Toys released the new WWE Domez set, not only did they include Undertaker but they released 3 different versions of him to 3 different stores! That was stressful and Undertaker anxiety was at an all time high! 5 Below and Walmart got the Regular and Clear chase, while Target got the Rare Gold version. I managed to track down the regular and clear versions, but I had to succumb to eBay for the Gold version.

 

 

The Undertaker “30 Years” Limited Edition Collector's Box

I absolutely love mystery & collector boxes and when you make it Undertaker themed - it's the best of both worlds! In this special limited edition box, WWEShop celebrated the Undertaker's 30 Years with a wide array of collectible items. Included inside a coffin themed box was first, a fun cosplay set that consisted of a pair of gloves, a tie and a phantom mask. Second, two small collectible vinyl figures of Undertaker and Paul Bearer. Third, an evolution of Undertaker mini poster that showcased his looks from 1994, 1999, 2003, 2013 and 2018. Then, we were treated to a nice Deadman Inc t-shirt with his signature symbol, the number 30 and a coffin al in purple flames. Lastly, a special Ministry of Darkness enamel pin was included that finished off WWEShop's 30 Years pin set that also showcased the Original Deadman, Big Evil and Apocalypse 2013 looks in pin form.

 

 

WWE Mattel WrestleMania Heritage Series Undertaker (Regular & 1 of 1000 Chase)

I still remember finding this figure on release day in 2010 when Mattel first got the license. Although I didn't get the 1/1000 chase until years later, I like that this one is based of his WrestleMania 24 championship win. The headscan still holds up to this day, I love these old basics! 

 

WWE Jakks Deluxe Aggression Best of 2008 Undertaker

The Ruthless Aggression figures weren't the only line Jakks made Best of series' - the Deluxe Aggression also pumped out multiples. A fancy thigh stamp and different accessories are the only things that distinguish this Taker from the other multiple deluxe figures released in this line. Gotta love repaints and simple changes

 

WWE Jakks Ruthless Aggression Best of 2008 Undertaker

Much like Mattel, Jakks also did their Best of series' and Taker was no stranger to them. Much like Series 32 from a couple posts down, its just a straight rerelease of that figure but a stamp was included on his thigh. Fancy!

 

WWE Mattel Elite Best of 2010 Undertaker

Ah the Best of series, a straight up rerelease of Elite Series 1 but still considered a separate figure in my mind because of the packaging. Yes I'm crazy like that and I still remember finding this at Toys R Us when the boom of 2010 was in full effect! Bring me back to those times!

 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 71 Undertaker (Regular & Bonus Slammy Award Variant)

Along with the regular release, this was one of the 2 variants that Mattel made. This time a Slammy was included instead of a Championship belt. I always liked these little bonuses Mattel and Jakks included with their figures. Undertaker is also a multi time Slammy award winner so this definitely works well! This is also one of my favorite pre-True FX headscans as it depicts a 2005 Undertaker perfectly.

 

WWE Jakks Ruthless Aggression Series 32 Undertaker

I can't believe I found this figure at a gun & comic book shop outside of Orlando - what a weird find! One of the later Ruthless Aggression series' and Jakks was still painting Taker's arms when they gave him a jacket. It always puzzled me that they never made them cloth and removable - it would've made the figure so much better!

 

 

WWE Mattel Elite Series 23 Flashback Undertaker

The first of 3 Purple gloved Undertaker Elite figures, this was great to find when it first came out! I love that they updated this in the new Legends Series 9 but the original still holds up. The flashback packaging definitely adds something to the figure to make it stand out among other Taker figures as well.

 

WWE Mattel Elite Toys R Us Exclusive 20-0 Undertaker

Undertaker's iconic WrestleMania 28 End of an Era match against Triple H was immortalized here in this amazing Elite figure. Also included are two weapons that were used throughout the match - if only the entrance robe would've made the cut!

 

WWE Mattel Elite Series 14 Undertaker

This was Undertaker's 3rd elite in the mainline. His elites are always great additions to the collection because even though his attires are dark, his style still pops. This box design in particular made his figures stand out even more with the white and black contrasting each other. I love this headscan and the WrestleMania 26 style robe they included here.

 

WWE Mattel Elite Series 18 Undertaker

Only the first of 3 Bad Ass Undertaker Elites with only 2 depicting his Big Evil run. He includes a removable bandana and shirt, but I wish he would've came with the Undisputed title or a biker chain. An accessory was definitely needed here to fill up the package.

 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 13 Superstar #06 Undertaker

Mattel's Undertaker figures, from basics to Elites, were always a homerun. Using a headscan they first introduced on Elite 8, this Undertaker is the perfect mashup of attires with a fierce head scan to add some flavor. Luckily I have all of Mattel's figures MOC in my collection, so that means more Mattel figures to showcase!

 

WWE Jakks Backlash Series 11 Undertaker

The Backlash series has returned but this time with Titan Trons! Equipped with better headscans and better attires, these figures were still a cost cutting figure line compared to Jakks' other lines. More Backlash Takers to come - yay!

 

WWF Jakks Survivor Series Titan Tron Live Double Slam 2-Pack Series 1 Vince McMahon vs Undertaker

The battle for the WWF was showcased in figure form with this Double Slam 2-Pack where Vince McMahon looked to stop the Undertaker's reign of terror. Although he has a far better headscan than his Series 1 figure, this Undertaker would've been better with a different outfit than just a trench coat and pants. Vince is no better - ugh!

 

WWF Jakks Survivor Series Titan Tron Live Series 1 Undertaker

Now entering the Titan Tron!

The Titan Tron Live series kicked off with horrible headscans, weird attire choices and new technology that got old fast. That all adds up to a line that hasn't aged well. However, there will always be a soft spot in my heart for soul patch Taker with an all black outfit that has no logos. 

Love it!

 

WWF Jakks WrestleMania 2000 Back Talkin' Crushers Series 1 Undertaker

Don't Smash My Arm!

This talking and responding Undertaker figure will make you think twice about twisting his head or smashing his arm! Although he doesn't have any tattoos, this Undertaker figure is definitely a nostalgic favorite! I remember playing with this when I was younger, I'm glad to have a MOC one now!

 

WWE Jakks New BCA Backlash Series 3 Undertaker

Although I don't have the Road to WrestleMania BCA Undertaker yet, this figure is basically a repaint of that one but with an updated head scan. Backlash BCAs are some of my favorite, as discussed in previous posts. Definitely a rare find added to my collection!

 

WWF Jakks Snappin' Bashers Series 1 Undertaker

Much like the Real Scan BCA Undertaker, if you twist and turn his head you will hear grunts and bone cracking sounds. This Big Evil Taker is definitely a welcomed addition to the collection!

 

WWF Jakks Real Scan Bone Crunching Superstars Series 1 Undertaker

BCA meets Real Scan technology - a match made in Heaven! Undertaker has full tattoos, an open vest and blue jeans - an all new body sculpt! When you twist and turn his head, he speaks, yells and grunts along with his bendable limbs that crunch like the older BCAs. Love this line, too bad it didn't last!
