Hot Toys - MMS756 - Deadpool & Wolverine - 1/6th scale Wolverine (Jacket Version) Collectible Figure

[DioramaMaker]

I mean I think it's as simple as they didn't get a licensor approval and they needed to tweak it.

This might give them the opportunity to put the masked sculpt with screaming mouth and gritted teeth. Here is hoping we get new promo images with it.

This whole figure was solicited and sold over the battle damaged seamless body as it appeared at the end of the movie. If they can't get license approval for that, then this figure needs to be scrapped like the What If Ironman and that Flash figure.

Nobody wants to pay $350 after shipping and taxes for a TVA Wolverine.

Looks like they decided to backtrack and remove any mention of the seamless body for this one.

Sideshow took down all photos that included the seamless body and it’s gone from HT’s website as well.

What the hell is going on here?
I preordered this for both the seamless body and the bloodied head sculpt.

So now you won't be able to remove the jacket?

Exactly, that's a pretty big bait and switch to pre-sell these and then change the solicitation
right before it goes to waitlist.

I don't want him displayed with the jacket... so I will 100% cancel if that's the only display option
and that the body isn't seamless anymore.

It looks like they updated the summary photo. That’s wild if they did decide to do away with the seamless body. I can’t remember another time where they advertised something that big as a selling point and then decide to remove it. I guess they’re covered by “Item shown is a prototype. When shipped, the final production piece may differ in appearance.” This would be a pretty big difference though.

Super odd. I wonder what’s going on with this. I didn’t pre-order and got the regular version but was going back and forth on getting this one too.

I wonder if they’re not confident in being able to produce a seamless upper torso that won’t have issues? Still though that’s a huge change when this was sold on the look without the jacket/upper part of his outfit.

That's what I'm thinking too. I was thinking though that they got the fully seamless torso look with Hellboy.

I didn't order this version either, but its definitely not right for those that did. Also puts the thought in the back of your head of them completely changing the look of what a figure was sold on for future releases.
