1/6 Hot Toys - Deadpool & Wolverine - Wolverine (Regular & Deluxe Ver) Collectible Figure

[JacktheRipper]

The masked head is growing on me; which I wasn't completely enamored with from the start.
As much as I like the cowl-less sculpt I wish it was different. It's a fantastic Jackman sculpt. I know he has that expression in the trailers. I think it's the open mouth.

I still want a civvie outfit Logan in addition to this X-Men outfit - I mulled over the recent DOFP figure for that purpose but I'm not so sure I like that 70s outfit so much anymore. I might hold out and see what else could happen.

Lumberjack Logan??

I like the suit in Logan but I will just put this guy next to DOFP Wolverine and maybe use the unmasked sculpt for that

 

[Nyhargo Dirge]

The most fascinating part is that Jackman was a last minute recast.

Who was the original choice?

 

[Mr.Tanker]

Who was the original choice?

Dougray Scott. I think it was because shooting for Mission Impossible 2 went over schedule.

 

[afaninfull]

Who was the original choice?

Not sure if my spelling is correct but the original actor was Doogray Scott. He couldn’t get released out of the Mission Impossible movie.

 

[Raνen]

At least MI:2 became a critically acclaimed success right?...... no ragrets

 

[JacktheRipper]

And look at that, we all know how to spell his name and clamoring for the next HT figure of him.

 

[Spanbauer]

I was torn too. Went with SS only because I had a 20$ coupon code and some unused points, made him *very* reasonable.

Same i panicked and went with sideshow since i knew they would still have it up for the deluxe and i had unused rewards.

They’re gonna make so many of these Wolverines I wasn’t worried he would sell out. But they’re gonna make so many of these Wolverines, I didn’t want to be the guy waiting 9 months after initial release for that thirty-ninth batch of them to arrive to resellers.

I also need to hold off for Kit in the future. I was just so antsy to get this guy.

 

[Garlador]

Yep. And he was still best known as a stage singer and dancer. At the time, I knew him from this:

He was cast so quickly he didn’t even get a proper chance to muscle up for the role, hence why he’s not nearly as bulked up in some shots compared to others.

Yet he nailed the performance right out of the gate.

You mean Dugray Scott? I don't want a figure of him, unless its from MI2 and it comes with a voice box that says his lines in his accent

I skimmed through X1 this week, and he's just flawless in scene after scene. The vibe he gives - that he could easily do without the X-Men - is so great.

Twenty-four years later. We went through three Batman actors. Three Spider-Man actors. Three Superman actors. Over 30 MCU projects.

And Hugh’s still killing it.

X1 Wolverine still has the best combo of the hair/chops look. it didn't look so professionally styled if that makes sense. It had a more natural look to it like that's just the way his hair was vs later films.

Yea, given the response this has had, I wouldn't be surprised if HT makes a few extra even though they have been cutting back with the latest couple of releases

Completely agree about the hair.
It looked totally natural and evocative of that classic comic style. After that, it always looked too intentional and tidy.

What a mane

My ultimate Jackman Wolverine figure would definitely be the bar look.

There’s just something undeniable about the layering of leather on denim on flannel on wife-beater on beefcake with dog tags that has always done it for me.

No one will top Jackman in this role.

“Does it hurt?”
“Every time.”

“Every time.”

Yep. That line gets me- every time!

As much as I'd be in for a comic accurate wolverine on film (him being 5,3 or 5,5) I will never deny Hugh Jackman is Wolverine for me since he was my childhood. Buying 2 or 3 of these figures isn't an issue (for my bank account it is. Lol) because me and others wanted this look for a long time.

 

[joeyoky]

Finally caved and ordered him. Can't wait to see the Deadpool figure. I guess I'll have that until this one comes out see which one I want to keep.

 

[joeyoky]

Really hope this sculpt doesn't get downgraded too much once it goes through production. He doesn't need baby smooth shiny skin. It's one hell of a sculpt at the moment.

Me too!!!

Yeah, I've got an origins figure with a custom sculpt but need to eventually get a decent flannel for him, at least.

By the way, I got this at the theater tonight.
