Honestly if you were born in the 90s you’d understand why wolverine is such a fav. Like venom he was front and center during that time so a lot of us love him. I for one thought his name was xmenA very thoughtful response, and honestly you echo a lot of my own sentiments.
I like the X-Men. I grew up on them. But I don't LOVE the X-Men as a diehard fan. I'm never going to try and complete the whole team or say that Gambit or Colossus are ever in my favorite heroes rankings.
But, yep, I was - and remain - a big Wolverine fan. Had all his toys as a kid. Drew him in my sketchbook. I don't need Wolverine front-and-center all the time, but I DO want to see him in stuff, and most importantly I just want to see him handled well.

All this talk of a yellow suit wolverine… I’m over here hoping we finally get a Logan movie figure.A very thoughtful response, and honestly you echo a lot of my own sentiments.

His introduction in X1 is excellent. They convey everything you need to know by showing, not telling.Seeing Wolvie in live action was so great. The bar scene is yet to be topped.
Options are out there if you’re willing to forego packaging with the Hot Toys logo.I’m over here hoping we finally get a Logan movie figure.
My wife worked on the movie, she’s looking forward to seeing these. I don’t collect Marvel but I’ll get these for her to remember the fun times on the project.
Absolutely awesome collection, I’m not too picky about the hot toys logo tho I do prefer and am more forgiving with officially licensed figures.His introduction in X1 is excellent. They convey everything you need to know by showing, not telling.
I wish the mansion scene in X2 was handled better as that would then potentially become my favourite Wolverine scene.
Unfortunately the absence of any blood or gore for what should be brutal, rage-fuelled kills, janky stunt work (throwing two guys he’s supposedly impaled over his shoulders while visibly making zero contact with their bodies,) and his inconsistent and instantaneous switches from feral to completely composed when directing the kids really neuter what should be the most testosterone fuelled and telling demonstration of what a deadly threat weapon X truly is.
The biggest reason I don’t want Wolverine front and centre of the MCU’s X-Men is because of how much I adore Jackman in the role. Plus, even after 97, I still don’t trust them to do the team or property justice in live action.

VFXSweet! What work does she do? VFX? On set?
Kinda crazy how hot toys doesn’t touch whet made marvel the powerhouse it is today. Like ya know making xmen 1-3 figures and raimi figures . He ll make the fox ff while you are at it.All this talk of a yellow suit wolverine… I’m over here hoping we finally get a Logan movie figure.
Going down memory lane makes me want to replay the xmen origins wolverine game … that game was badass!
Have strong memories of the old X2 and Evolution figures (xmen evolution designs was soo good for wolverine)… I still don’t have a 1/6 wolverine tho
With the exception of hot toys dislike for Logan it’s all about staying current making the most recent versions only… unless that character is iron man.Kinda crazy how hot toys doesn’t touch whet made marvel the powerhouse it is today.

I’ll count my Batman 89 blessings then.With the exception of hot toys dislike for Logan it’s all about staying current making the most recent versions only… unless that character is iron man.
instead of xmen 1-3 its days of future past wolverine, instead of raimi spider man it’s no way home.
The new captain Jack is his latest appearance rather than curse of the black pearl or his arguably more iconic dead man’s chest.
It’s JW4 instead of JW1, it’s the Feral Predator rather than the P1 Jungle Hunter.
Granted some of these choices do make sense, by the time these got announced, never mind released the hype for them would have died down leaving people wanting the originals.
or Maybe i am just out of touch and collectors prefer a days of future past casual wolverine over an Xmen 1 wolverine (either casual with jacket or x uniform)
Correct me if I am wrong but I think the 89 2.0 went up for order not long before the flash version of Keaton…. How the flash movie suffered large delays and the 89 suit was still in the movie. So if they movie didn’t get delayed I am pretty sure the flash version of Keaton would have gone up first.I’ll count my Batman 89 blessings then.
These promotional statues never look all that good when it comes to human likeness.Yeah when you’re dealing with life size, human faces need to be perfect, not bad for a 4” figure like that Wolverine face is. He has a full beard for some reason too?
It’s kinda like when you go and see a rock concert and all they wanna play is the new stuffWith the exception of hot toys dislike for Logan it’s all about staying current making the most recent versions only… unless that character is iron man.
