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

[grinningsmile]

Just a quick question so i can get things in order, when are we expecting wolverine to be available? In hong kong i mean, not from sideshow or anyone else, but released over in hong kong. Anyone who can help or has any ideas, would be appreciated.

Hot Toys recently published a release list with Wolverine listed as Nov/Dec for HK.

Yes, I hope so too especially Sabretooth. Absolutely loved him in that movie.

I really hope Hot Toys have Sabretooth and Gambit in their planning.

the body and the clothes are top notch and the claws look good to. but that headsculpt??? sort of ruins it for me.

IMO the majority of folks agree the sculpt isn't their best however, until the figure is actually released there is always hope the sculpt is improved. If the sculpt is a deal breaker wait for the trilogy Wolverine perhaps it will be better

The face looks nice

I think the face looks better from different angles. Its just a little too thin. I photoshoped a pic awhile back where all I did was smoosh it down and it looked a lot better. But then again I really like this one. Im really excited to get this one.

So when do you think SSC will get them MF?

A month or two after HK delears get it, it takes weeks for shipments to come over by boat, so a month just about if all orders ship around the same time, if a small handful just for the HK folks is ready at one time and the larger runs for Sideshow and other non-HK dealers comes a littler later, then it'll be a bit longer.

Crossing my fingers for a early / mid November release date overseas and improved head sculpt. I am not asking for much

Regardless the "not so Jackman like" sculpt or doubtful "improved Jackman" sculpt it will be one of the few figures I order from evilbay the day released. I been waiting for this guy since April, I am ready to have him on my shelves.

Well then you need to get us some pictures as soon as you can. Im waiting and what a long wait it will be.

Come on HT - Schreibertooth!

 

[DinoLast]

For me it looks like Jackman, but regardless of that it's a fantastic Wolverine
And the sculpt has been improved because Hot Toys said it has been improved.
The Finished sculpt is on my Sig and I think it looks great.

Like the John Connor figure, I will be picking this up regardless of how crap the film was.

 

[Brooks11b]

Very excited for this, I don't care so much about the Jackman sculpt. But it is a great Wolverine!!

 

[wolverine8472]

well lets hope ht are true to there word. as you can tell by my username wolverine is my fave character of all time so i will buy it regardless. by the way the movie isnt crap. it has to do a lot of background story to bring the non wolvie fans up to date on his history and i think the second wolverine movie will be a lot better for being set in japan. all the best wolvie stories were from their and i hope they bring madripoor into it too! one final point. what the f$£*( was deadpool all about in the movie. last story i read with him in it he didnt have anything like those sort of abilities. he was just very skilled and could heal. i guess movie execs were meesing things up again.

So they've confirmed they're doing a sequel? Wasn't Origins a bit of a disappointment regarding the box office--at least domestically?

I loved the film. Got it on bluray yesterday...really makes me want a figure of Victor Creed.

I been a big advocate of a Victor figure. Too quite on this line to believe one is coming

Still wish they made a growling head or a screaming head as extra. IT would look a lot more menacing.
