Ok guys I repent, I will note that I agree the mustache and little nub under the bottom lip is no way screen accurate. That being said it is my only nit pic somebody definitely needs to call ht out on this that is flat out nearly as bad as spiders arms issue. Who the heck does quality inspection for them they need a couple of Americans on the factory floor for final inspection line seriously.

decision time! should i, or should i not?!
 
We can't tell you if you should or shouldn't, but unfortunately I am canceling my preorder and loosing out on my NRD :/ The mustache does it for me. Went from looking like Wolverine to looking like a bad Wolverine cosplayer because of that one tiny detail...

PS. This is the first time ever I saw OMG flat out say he doesn't like a headsculpt o_O
 
According to the disclaimer down the side this was the prototype:



And this is the production:

Both look the same to me, including the moustache.
 
WTF, do the sculpters not look at pics of the actor or character shots before they finalize the painting, like how can you **** up the moustache like that!
 
Wow. Guys I'm pretty disappointed right now. I've been waiting so long since the movie came out to get this figure and the proto itself looked amazing. What happened Hot Toys???? Seriously like what the hell? The head sculpt paint is "OKAY" but not what we usually see in a final product and the body. Hot Toys needs to make a new one because Hugh is jacked up. Looks too skinny. Other than that the other accessories look nice but still for what we're paying it's not worth it. If the head sculpt was fine I would of kept my order. I'll wait for more in hand pics but I think I'll still be pretty disappointed. Only a couple of photos looked pretty good but other than that. I'm sad and frustrated at Hot Toys right now. They should just delay the **** out of our figures again. The early releases are messing everything up and making figures come out like ****. I'm happy with my Last Stand Wolverine and if Hot Toys makes a DOFP Wolverine. They better get it right.

The mustache on production is actually thicker :/ Originally it wasn't really accurate but not too bad. Now that the mustache got made thicker though..
 
DOFP Wolverine will be TLS headsculpt with gray hair I bet.

Better not be. Want to see another unique sculpt. This was a killer sculpt but in the end the paint ruined it. Wow can't believe Hot Toys has failed. They usually give us a final product worth owning. This is not one of them.

i agree with you, this was a killer sculpt; not the usual neutral sculpt, but the paint and opinions i read make me think twice.

i've paid a deposit for the pre-order based on the prototype; although i still like it now, but the imperfection in this final sculpt ...
 
I love it. I somewhat see the complaints about the mustache but it doesn't bother me. So glad OMG put The Wolverine head on Last Stand. Looks amazing IMO. Does anyone know if it would be a simple head swap or if some modifications would have to be made to switch the heads?

Hopefully all of this hate for the head sculpt will allow me to pick up a spare on the cheap.
 
also really disappointed in the bone claws... they are supposed to be round... not bone coating over the metal versions. the protos of the bone claws looked great! these on the final are so wrong!

Same here.

Of all HT's Wolverine sculpts so far this is the only that I really like.

Instant improvement! I quickly fell out of love with the TLS head sculpt after the initial excitement of the opportunity to get a Wolverine, so I didn't buy that version.

Should be a simple head swap.

They're more rounded in the comics (or should I say some of the comics?), but I don't know about the film as I haven't seen it.

They look quite blade-like in this still:
