Love that relaxed Wolverine pose Bar, I mean Username :wink1:

Thanks.
I was messing about today with simple "one turnaround" vids in different poses.
I am only very slightly hampered by the fact i have used a $10 Dam Toys body and the shoulder joints are totally pants. I might wait till the bootleg TTM21s hit the market and put him on one of those.
 
Here is what I have so far. I redid the beard and dyed a Royce shirt for him...

Not sure I'm sold on the blue shirt look. I have a brown jacket coming in to work on the ninja fight scene. What do you all think?
 
I finally got mine for a belated birthday present today, looks incredible in hand.
Sure the mustache is a little over done, and the muttonchops need to be a little fuller to look closer to the film, but it's a great rendition of Jackman's Wolverine and I'm more than satisfied. If a improved head becomes available, I'll just build a second Wolverine with the extras from this set and keep him as is.
The only issue I have here is that the legs and ankles are a little lose, but love the costume and accessories.

Awesome gift. Belated happy birthday, buddy. Many happy returns! :duff
 
I love SHIELD back drop. Did you make it or ????

I didn't make it, but i had it made.
I sent the file and the dimensions for the piece to a local signwriting place(the kind of place that does vinyl decals for vans and cars, and shops, etc.).
they printed it out on vinyl and attached it to a sheet of foamboard for me. I sent them a file i found on the net, but the guy who worked there said it wasn't high enough resolution, so he redrew it for the larger size.
I was initially going to get it for the floor of that shelf, like it was a floor decal on the way into SHIELD HQ.
But i thought it would be hidden by the bases of the figures i had in there.
The cost was £30/$49.

Thanks Heubert! It made my Monday! :duff
Doesn't that always happen when a figure is released?
You can flex pay only up until it comes into stock, then you have to just pay in full.
I seem to recall reading that in another thread once.
Yes, once a figure is released Flex Pay becomes unavailable for awhile, then when it comes back there are usually fewer number of payment installments available. If and when Wolvie Flex Pay becomes available again, expect only the two month Flex payment option.
 
saw this at a comic shop near this sandwhich shop my coworkers and I went to for lunch and I have to say (though I believe it's been said many times already) that the stach on the headsculpt is not nearly as dark in hand as it is in pics. However, I agree that the chops are a little too light. I was going to wait and use RPs on this once I had enough but with it right before my eyes and not having to wait on shipping, it's hard to resist. I may go back and get it after work
 
I heard the ko sculpts on Evilbay are better than the real ones? Any truth to this?

No they're actually almost the same except the KO one is way darker in skin tone. There's a pic somewhere in here I think that compares the two.

I think there could be more than one "company" producing the KO heads, as the one I got actually had lighter skin tone than the authentic HT head and I also heard of some accounts that the KO they got were darker. I got mine from my trusted Ebay seller Kit (iyiyyy). One thing I also noticed is that it's very soft, which I think is a given as it's a recast of a Hot Toys sculpt that's rather soft.

I used mine for this WW2 Logan custom (which I posted on the custom Wolverine thread). It got darker after the blood spatter, some wash for dirt, and "shaving" the mustache. I'll take a close up photo when I'm not as busy.

*pic*

or it could be just variation due to being a KO? meaning like none are all consistent? Just from experience dealing with transformer KOs (and I know these are not like HT :lol but still KOs) there was variation in the quality of the KOs.

anywhoo, this is the one Rahmier got (KO on the left, HT on the right)...not sure where he got it from though so you could be right HM :) I'd just prefer to not take the risk anymore now seeing the difference. previous KOs have been a little closer to HT quality from what I've seen.

I have one of those and it's way tanner than the hot toys....
