Dunno if this had been seen, but someone made bone claws for their Wolverine. Among other things.

The look cool sculpturally, but really need a more lively paint job, they're too one-toned.

I think a Sabretooth wouldn't be that hard of a bash is someone commissioned a good sculpt.

Wow. Those are really nice custom claws and military get up.

 

[MaulFan]

Bashing his costume would be easy enough, it's getting a sculpt, as great as the Wolverine portrait is, I personally couldn't enjoy a Sabertooth if it couldn't match the quality of Wolverine and there aren't really any sculptors available that can do that quality.

Found a supplier selling this for cheap, but he's out of them for a lil bit.

^ Where? Is there other Hot Toys for sale?

This figure is sweet! BTW is there any history on why Wolverine sports his belt buckle?

 

[MaulFan]

Nope, in origins it's just part of the clothes he gets from the old couple.

And I just watched Origins yesterday. I was thinking it was a gift from his girlfriend or something but it wasn't shown. Thanks!

 

[MaulFan]

Well he was nude when he ran away from Stryker, any posessions from his past life are gone, all he had was the tank top, jeans, pants, boots and jacket from the old folks.

 

[darkknight]

I think I need to watch Origins again

 

[MaulFan]

I'd say so, pretty much everything of Wolverine's background from X-Men 1-3 is explained in origins, except how he goes from his birth name James to Logan , explain everything, then create another plothole

Yup...What if he just decided Logan was much cooler??? I just always figured he changed his name after running away.

 

[MaulFan]

I assumed it was an alias too, but then there was the scene where he leaves.

Stryker and all the guys from the mutant team call him Logan, Victor calls him Jimmy when he leaves, in front of everyone, Stryker continues calling him Logan. Really, if Victor hadn't called him Jimmy in front of everyone, it would have flowed just fine as, the world knows him now as Logan, but that one moment makes me think, if he's hiding his name, surely his brother'd be smart enough not to say it in front of everyone, or someone else would think, why's Victor shouting Jimmy to Logan. The only other times he calls him Jimmy after he's bearing the name Logan are when they're alone, so it'd be fine.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

I always thought Logan was an alias, but just figured Victor was calling him Jimmy to taunt him because he was always trying to be something other than his true "killer" self.

True. But at the same time, the reason why I probably don't favor this movie that much is how Origins ignored what was shown to us in X2 with what happens when they are making Weapon X. It's too different.

I assumed he changed his name: James Logan.

The reason I asked is because I read this on toy haven review on HT Wolverine
The Red Indian Chief belt buckle is a hoot. After leaving Team X, Logan (Hugh Jackman) is shown six years later in Canada with his girlfriend, Kayla Silverfox (Lynn Collins), who happens to be a Native Canadian Blackfoot or Niitsítapi (meaning "original people").

I didn't like that either, and I think their reasons for the change really don't add up, on the DVD the director comments on them needing more space in the room for the action, but what happened didn't require more physical space. I do like that he wasn't all bloody and freaking out about the claws like in X2, that made me think he had the claws added like they do for Deadpool in Origins, but bone claws turning metal like the rest of his skeleton makes a lot more sense to me.

 

[PapitoMX]

Also in X2, as it seems, he was suppose to lose his memory there. Not by a bullit and a lucky theory.
