Hot Toys - MMS187 - X-Men: The Last Stand: Wolverine

[Username]

I'm still looking forward to this wolverine, it will help to complete my classic marvel figures shelf. I got r&b spidy, captain America, mark 4 ironman, and will have this wolverine and hulk to top it off.

Well there's nothing surer than it will be out very, very shortly.

And while I do think they missed the boat with the original X-Men trilogy, they still HAD a chance with XM-FC. Now that ship is quickly sailing away.

If they can go back to Iron Man 2 for Whiplash they can go back for X-Men, in fact they did with this .

Blade 2 and Spider-Man 3 figures were released years after the movies (i'm fairly sure)

 

[Mad Old Lu]

I certainly hope so!

Maybe the sales of this Wolvie will be so great that they'll fast track more X-figures!

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Most of their figures come out way late...the only problem is a backlog of figures that need to be addressed first. HT is trying to catch up and release figures closer to the movies making it harder and harder to make the older movie figures...

The bootlegs are starting to appear out of the back door of the factory, so this one will be out very soon.

[Mad Old Lu]

What? Seriously?

[spekerol]

[spekerol]

that nose makes him look like pinnochio!

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Although the eyebrows look angry the eyes don't. More like an evil grin face than a raging face.

I have long believed that HT is a big player on Ebay supplying the "bootlegs" for inflated prices, pitting sellers against each other.
The MKVII Tony with the lopsided grin is also on Ebay right now, but with a lousy paint app.

 

[Crimsonbob]

Well i for 1 wont touch it cos i'm getting the real deal but its interesting to see some close ups anyway.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

So it's a bootleg?

So it's a bootleg?

With identical proportions to the "real thing" that supposedly isn't out yet.
You see a lot of stuff like this on Ebay from HK.
Stuff that either walked out the back of the factory, or is sold from within the factory, lol.

 

[Crimsonbob]

So it's a bootleg?

Yeah, type in custom wolverine hot toys on ebay and you can see for yourself.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Yeah just found it.

That is all very possible. If it does happen, I'd bet is was done WITHOUT company knowledge. I seriously doubt a multi - million dollar company is going to jeopardize their entire existance, that already had the 1/6 market by the b%@#S, for a little exact aftermarket money. But that just my opinion.

 

[RIDDICK]

Well even tho it's a bootleg... looks good

Can't w8 for the official one.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Yeah when it's not obvious it's a fake you know it's a good fake
