WWE Nano Metalfigs Undertaker W12 & 20 Piece Boxset (Toys R Us Exclusive)

These mini metal figures are interesting pieces of merchandise, everything from Harry Potter to Batman were made so it was fun to see mini WWE wrestlers, especially when it comes to Undertaker. It was hard finding a well painted face since these are so tiny and metal, but eventually I found a good one. The large pack was more difficult to find good paint apps, but glad to have these in my collection!



 

WWF 1998 Merch Stand/ShopZone Exclusive Undertaker Stovepipe Hat

This interesting piece of merchandise was too good to pass up! When I started getting back into collecting items for my Undertaker collection, I always wanted fun ShopZone and merch stand items since they are nostalgic and I was too young to collect these when they were first released. So when this piece came up for sale, I knew I needed it for my collection - it's so absurd and large that it's perfect! If anything screams 90s Attitude Era, it's definitely Undertaker on a Stovepipe hat!


 

WWE Mattel Basic SummerSlam Heritage Series Undertaker (1994 & 1998)

These 2 SummerSlam Heritage figures represent 2 of my favorite eras of the Undertaker. The first being his rebirth in late 1994 where he returned in his purple attire to battle a fake Undertaker and the second being in late 1998 where he battled Stone Cold Steve Austin and began his transformation into the Ministry of Darkness. I love PPV centered sets and it's always great to have Undertaker apart of them.



 

WWE Hero Collector Championship Collection - Undertaker (Issue 4) & Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels (Iconic Matches)

I have always been a fan of statue pieces because it adds so much to a collection. These pieces by Eaglemoss are detailed and even include a booklet that details the Undertaker's career and both his and Shawn Michaels' career and iconic match at WrestleMania 25 in the 2-pack. Although I wish the box was smaller on the single release, these are still great display pieces in their boxes. Hopefully more Takers are made in the future!

WWE Mattel Basic Series 117 Undertaker

The newest Undertaker basic figure comes in Series 117 with his Elite 79 headscan and depicting his outfit from Extreme Rules 2019/Elimination Chamber 2020. Although he's missing his neck tattoos, it's still a great figure that's an impressive improvement from Battle Pack 66.


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 109 SummerSlam Heritage Undertaker

Although the Undertaker is synonymous with WrestleMania, his record at SummerSlam is impressive as well! Boasting a remarkable 16 appearances at the PPV and an impressive 10-5-1 record there as well. So it's no surprise that when there's a SummerSlam wave, the Undertaker should be included as he was last year in Mattel's set. Depicting his appearance at SummerSlam 2008 where he defeated Edge in a Hell in a Cell match. This is a great figure from a classic match!


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 100 Undertaker

Mattel hit a milestone in 2019 with 100 series in the Basic line and to commemorate that, they included the WWE's biggest names in the set. Undertaker is of course included here with a brand new headscan depicting his signature eyes rolled back and tongue out - a headscan which would be utilized 2 more times after this, so far! Can't wait to see what Elite Series 100 has in store!


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 63 Undertaker

Crazy eyes Deadman makes his debut here and I love it! Depicting his wild eyes look after the brawl with Brock Lesnar on Raw, this Undertaker definitely sets himself apart from the rest of his figures. I love how different this figure is and how it immediately brings your attention to the brand new head sculpt. "I'm Gonna kill you!" "You're Gonna have to!"


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series 58 Undertaker

This Mattel basic figure depicts the Undertaker's return in 2015 and feud with Bray Wyatt. Although this figure seems rather plain, I liked how it had his new look rather quickly after reveal at WrestleMania 31. His shoulder length hair and new headscan was a welcomed change as well!


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series "WrestleMania XXX" Undertaker

This basic series was released before the unfortunate event that transpired at WrestleMania XXX. This Undertaker depicts his victory at WrestleMania 29 in his Paul Bearer tribute attire and ironically the last match of the Streak. This figure is definitely a piece of history!  


 

WWE Mattel Basic WrestleMania Heritage Series Superstar #23 & Superstar #15 Undertaker

These 2 Mattel basic figures were released in the WrestleMania Heritage series. The first one depicts his victory at WrestleMania 21 against Randy Orton and has one of the best Taker headscans that Mattel ever produced. Everything from the hair to the face nailed this era of Taker. The second release, after Mattel rebooted the Superstar numbers and shrunk the packages, depicts his victory against Triple H at WrestleMania 28. I liked Taker's reinvention with the shaved mohawk look at this WrestleMania and Mattel always nailed the headscans when they released these heads on many figures.

WWE The Loyal Subjects Action Vinyl Series 1 Undertaker, Target Exclusive Variant, SDCC Black Exclusive & SDCC 2-Pack vs John Cena

These mini vinyl figures of the Undertaker are fun because they add so much to my collection that's usually made up of 6 inch or larger figures. Mini figures create a fun distraction and allow displays to be more balanced. These vinyl figures made by the Loyal Subjects were released in 4 different variations. There were 2 SDCC Exclusives - 1 all black single release and a 2-Pack with John Cena. Then the Undertaker was released apart of Series 1 with a regular version and a Target exclusive variant with his logo on his chest. Hope to see more in the future!











 

WWE Mattel Masters of the WWE Universe Wave 3 Undertaker as Scare Glow

I have grown to love the Masters of the WWE Universe line, hopefully they include more versions of the Undertaker in the future. For now, we have the classic Ministry of Darkness look with a fun Glow-in-the-Dark feature. I was lucky enough to find a punched and unpunched card for the collection on the bay before prices went through the roof!





 

WWE Mattel Tough Talkers Series - Undertaker Total Tag Team & 2-Pack Series 1 vs Brock Lesnar

These Tough Talkers from Mattel were a fun concept - these figures were designed to trash talk and react to another figure that had this technology. The 2-Pack series with Undertaker & Brock Lesnar was released first and the buttons on their back actually recognize each other, which is fun to hear them interact with each other. The Total Tag Team release was designed so that figures can "partner up" against 2 other figures. Undertaker was designed to team up with John Cena against the other figures of the set. I love fun figures with action features and these definitely lived up to it.



 

WWE Mattel Mighty Minis Series 1 Undertaker Mystery Mini

Mattel has made many different sub lines to their 2 core WWE lines, many of which has included Undertaker in them. One of those lines was a series of mystery minis called Mighty Minis. These minis came dissembled and the pieces were able to be put on different bodies to create fun variations. The Undertaker mini is based off of his return in 2014 with the mohawk, Ministry goatee and Paul Bearer tribute tights. This was fun to find, hopefully they do more of these again in the future!


 

WWE Mattel Mini Superstar Figurine Micro Collection Series 1 & 3 Undertaker

Mattel has made many different sub lines to their 2 core WWE lines, many of which has included Undertaker in them. One of those lines was a series of Dollar Store exclusive mini superstar figurines. These figurines are usually posed in signature stances and the Undertaker was posed raising his arms, summoning the lights. These are always fun to find, hopefully they do more of these in the future!



 

WWE Mattel Mini Superstar Statue Figure Undertaker (Dollar General Exclusive)

Mattel has made many different sub lines to their 2 core WWE lines, many of which has included Undertaker in them. One of those lines was a series of Dollar General exclusive mini superstar statues. These wrestlers were posed in signature stances and the Undertaker was posed readying for a Chokeslam. This was fun to find, hopefully they do more of these again in the future!


 

WWF Jakks Maximum Sweat Series 1, 2 & 4 Undertaker

Perhaps no other figure line represents the outlandish spectacle of the Attitude Era than the Maximum Sweat series. These figures were overly muscled, their features exaggerated and often include large accessories. The action feature that these figures were known for was the "Sweat Pumpin' Action" that by adding water and pushing a button, water would flow from their foreheads. Yes these were real and yes I'm glad I have the 3 versions of Taker in my collection!




 

WWE Mattel Basic Best of 2013 Series Undertaker

2013 saw the last WrestleMania Streak win for the Undertaker as he went 21-0, so naturally Mattel included him as a part of their Best of 2013 series. Similar to his BOPPV figure release, I love the mohawk Taker look as well as the Paul Bearer tribute tights.


 

WWE Mattel Basic Series Best of Pay-Per-View 2013 Undertaker WrestleMania 29 (Toys R Us Exclusive)

2013 saw the last WrestleMania Streak win for the Undertaker as he went 21-0, so naturally Mattel included him as a part of their 2013 BOPPV series. Included with this figure is a Build a Figure (BAF) piece to build a Booker T figure - super cool! Also, I love the mohawk Taker look as well as the Paul Bearer tribute tights.

WWF Jakks Titan Tron Live SmackDown! 1999 Single Release & 2-Pack with Big Show

These Undertaker figures were released in an unnamed SmackDown! series only. The single release includes a Tag Team Title Belt and Microphone, while the 2-Pack includes sunglasses for Undertaker. Both the single release and 2-pack also include a display base. Released around late 1999, these Undertaker figures represent his Unholy Alliance with Big Show and his transitioning out of the Ministry and into the Bad Ass. Hence the street clothes and sunglasses.



 

WWE Mattel Rumblers - Casket Match Playset, Single Series 1 & 2, 2-Packs Series (vs Mark Henry, Drew McIntyre & Kane) and 7-Pack Battle Royal

I decided to showcase the entire Undertaker Rumblers collection in one post since its all one set. The first Undertaker Rumblers released was apart of a Deluxe Casket Match Playset that included a casket launcher and collapsing tomb. Along with this set, they released the Undertaker as apart of a 7-pack Battle Royal set and Series 1 of a single release. They released an updated Undertaker mold without his hat in Series 2 of the single wave. 2-Pack releases were next when they included him with Mark Henry first, then Drew McIntyre with the updated Taker mold and finally with Kane. The final Rumblers Undertaker came in a new set called Rumblers Rampage, where each figure was equipped with a special action. Taker was also updated here with his new Mohawk look. A very cool line that I loved collecting and hopefully mini figures make a return in the future! 












 

WWF Jakks Titan Tron Live Raw Heat Series 1 & 2 Undertaker

More pre-Real Scan Undertaker figures have graced my collection thanks to that same Facebook seller. Now here we have the 2 Undertaker figures released in the Raw Heat series, Series 1 includes a breakable bench and is a rerelease of his Titan Tron Live Series 1 figure. Series 2 includes a bar bell and is dressed in his hybrid Ministry/Bad Ass attire that he was rocking in late 1999. Both of these figures were special to me when I was a kid and I was happy to have them again - especially that Series 2 one!



 

WWF Jakks Titan Tron Live WrestleMania XVII Ringside Chaos Series 1 & Rebellion Series 1 Undertaker

These 2 Undertaker figures were released under the WrestleMania XVII banner series, but in 2 different sub-series'. The first Undertaker with the blue vest was released in the Ringside Chaos series and he included a wrench and foot cast. The second Undertaker with the grey vest was released in the first Rebellion series (He would be included in the SNH: Rebellion series 2 & 3 as well) and he included a biker chain. Thanks to the same Facebook seller who helped me acquire the Sunday Night Heat Takers in getting these as well.



 

WWF Jakks Titan Tron Live Sunday Night Heat Rebellion Series 2 & 3 Undertaker

These 2 Undertaker figures were released in the Sunday Night Heat Rebellion series. Both Taker figures include Real Scan technology and his American Bad Ass look. In Series 2, he includes a removable plastic shirt and cap and in Series 3, he includes a WWF 2000 tire. I love these figures because it brings me back to finding them at KB Toys and I was so happy to add these to my collection thanks to a great Facebook seller who fed my Taker addiction many times in the pandemic era.



 

WWF Jakks Titan Tron Live WrestleMania 2000 Double Slam Series 2 & 3 Undertaker vs Kane & Undertaker vs Mankind

These 2 Double Slam sets were released under the WrestleMania 2000 banner and were still pre-Real Scan technology figures. An interesting note was that the Series 2 Undertaker had tattoos on his arms while the the next series 3 did not include them. I always thought it was odd that Jakks would still produce Undertaker figures at this time without tattoos since they've been doing it since Series 7 in the BCA series. Besides that, these 2 sets are nostalgic and include 2 of Taker's best rivals at the time.
