Keep an eye on ebay I grabbed a brand new one 2 weeks ago for $189 shipped. No shipper though.

Hello
has anyone had a problem with the claws? Changing color, having to wipe them down, etc?

I think one other person has, a few pages back.

I think I have a new favorite figure. The movie was awesome, and he is too! This is my first attempt on some fighting poses, usually I do more the funny pictures, so they are probably all wrong.

I got this figure a few weeks ago, it was either this or the DOFP version. I prefer this one by far. Not a perfect figure but good enough, probably the first and last Wolverine I'll ever have.

The head sculpt is actually pretty great when you thin the beard and thicken the chops. Maybe make the eyes straight and the tailoring on the suit? Top notch.

We were asked to do a picture with an 1:6 scale figure and their Mini-me and this is my result.

I think the closest thing was hot toys bane's coat. There might have been a 3rd party version as well or maybe gangster kingdom.

Did you ever find a coat that worked?

In regards to that coat, I made one by modifying a pre-existing one.
Ah that looks fantastic! Thanks.
(Sorry for thread necromancy

Ah man so much Wolverine craze with DP3, and much more to come. My TW is packed away but I scored a loose one (in the tank and cargo pants attire) for a bargain! I did a a body switch with the Worldbox AT012 body and it makes a tremendous amount of difference! The physique and bulkiness of that body emulates HJ's from the film to a good degree (which of course WB was most likely going for in my opinion). The tank top on the original figure doesn't seem to fit the new body, given how much bigger the upper body is, so I just substituted a different one, but it also looks very good shirtless too. The hands, boots and head fit in all the pegs without issue. Plus the disparity in skin tone between the head and body isn't too much (under moderate lighting). The only nit about the WB body is that the forearms don't have hair painted/sculpted on them. Revisiting the head sculpt, while the likeness isn't spot on, I still see resemblance to HJ - it's still a solid sculpt (imo) and I like the hair style too. Do be careful not to puncture the palm of your hand since the tips of the spiky hair are moderately sharp lol

Congrats! Always fun getting a bargain especially considering todays prices. I always found the likeness to be quite good, just the paint messing it up. I’ve seen a couple repaints and the likeness really gets brought out with better paint apps. Even so much as removing the over done stubble on the mustache area helps out.
Yuppp!!! I bought it for about the price of a Mezco 1/12
Though if I hadn't gotten it for such a steal I probably wouldn't have done the swap; I'd be apprehensive to really play around and do more with it if it was higher priced or brand spanking new, admittedly Browsing through the thread (
) I agree, some of the repaints really bring out more of the sculpt.
