Hot Toys - MMS 103 - X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Wolverine Figure

Well, time's also going by, this figure came out in like November I think, it's been out for months, HT figures tend to be gone within such a time frame, some even sooner. I was surprised how long this seemed to still kick around, it seemed to be selling out fast when it first shipped and people saw how nicely it came out.

Oh I lied. It was the middle of May. People really didnt care for it when it came out, now they are sad because they cant find one. Love this figure.

Made by Bowen. IMO, it is one of the best Logan statues
around.

Yes it is!!!! Its one that i am missing!!

he was my second purchase after the p-1, i got into this 1/6 stuff this year and after 5 figures later he's still awesome, glad i got him he's starting to dry up at retail. if you don't have him and you wan't him you better jump on him, before it's too late! now if i can only obtain a blade!

I was sold on it all along, and I was right, it's still one of my most favorite figures, I'd say for quality of the figure, T-800 and Wolverine are my 2 most favorite figues I own, everything is just amazing, sculpt work, paint job, tailoring is incredible.

I agree - The tailoring on this figure is one of the best I have ever seen.

Funny how crazy prices can get for a figure once they've sold out. The Mark I is suddenly shooting up in price after being available through hastings for months.

I finally cracked and decided to buy Blade and Wolverine at the same time but could only buy one a month. I went with Wolverine first but by the time I went to look for Blade it was too late and prices started to go up. I got lucky and a friend here on the board hooked me up but otherwise I'd have to have paid around 200-230. (thanks again Sam)

That's why I just always preorder and anything I'm iffy on, I preorder at places that have no cancellation fee and solid return options. The way prices can jump on these things, I feel better locking in an order at retail price and being free to change my mind than waiting and possibly missing out. I passed on HT Hicks because of how bad the stock photos looked and by the time I saw what custom work could do for him, I ended up paying almost double, which is still a bargain considering how high that goes for now, but still, I could have had him for a mere $80 but I didn't take a chance.

I went to look at my Wolverine today and around his neck and chest there are little black spots, almost like dots from a pen. This figure has been sitting on my shelf forever and I am confused why it would have done this. I have always hated the rubber they used and lots of people complained about the whiskers rubbing off. Has this happened to anyone else? I wonder if its from the dog tags, other than that I have no clue.

 

[robbiethepainter]

Nothing on mine dude. Sorry to hear about yours.

I have that too. Its no biggie for me cuz the only way you can see it is if you tilt his head WAY back underneath the head sculpt.

 

[highlanderpdx]

Thanks for looking RTP, this blows, I might have to get paint and touch it up.

I check mine few minutes ago and looks fine, and is always out the box just in my collectors room, keep always nice temp, not too hot not too cool.

this makes me worried
why would they make a collectible out of a material that does not last??? this makes no sense

Could you post some pics?

I lucked out with a DCD DX Bats that didn't leak but I still got a figure that now has liver spots. I think Logan is aging super fast now and by the end of the year he will be Old Man Logan.
