SSC - Marvel - 1:6 scale Wolverine figure

I prefer with the briefs b/c it helps conceal the hip joints but ultimately up to you.

Yeah, that is a really good point and the main reason I’m still considering keeping him with the briefs on. That said I do slightly prefer how he looks w/out the briefs, I guess it looks more modern or something.

Decided to see how he looks without the briefs, what do you guys think …

I did the same with my Wolverine always thought the brief is silly.

Yeah, this and the other pics you posted earlier convinced me to see how mine would look like without the briefs.

The upside for you is that since you did a body swap and removed the undergarment that came with the SSC Wolverine you don’t have the visible hip joints and fabric lines that mine has. But overall I still prefer how mine looks without the briefs.

I have to say I think this figure has been under appreciated a bit on this forum. I know this figure has some issues, but it is really nice in hand …still very glad I bought one

Ok, looking for some advice here.

I now have two versions of Wolverine from Sideshow. I like different things about both versions, but I have a strict self-imposed one figure per character rule, so I am going to keep one and sell one.

Which would you guys keep if you could only have one in your display …

I personally like the Astonishing X-Men Wolverine design over the 90's Tiger Stripe suit. I have the Tiger Stripe suit and I'll be heavily customizing it. Waiting to see what Present Toys does with their version if they still have it planned.

@Omega9300 I'd say keep the Astonishing and sell the Tiger Stripe. If you end up wanting that look again, there's always the HT/Hono figure (if you like the look of it that is) as well as the eventual SooSoo version.

So many companies do the tiger stripe. I personally went with the Astonishing.

 

[MasterRazzerr76]

I have my bias always loved the Astonishing version

 

[Earth 616 Collector]

Agree with everyone to keep the Astonishing version with other tiger stripe versions available. I wish I would have went that direction when I got mine.

I used to have that one figure per character rule as well. I threw that rule to the wind last year

Yea, I bought multiples of characters last year as well. However, now I'm trying to get rid of them all

My astonishing with a head swap

I wonder which will look better. This or the hot toys one

 

[ironwez20]

Also feel really stupid for not getting the sideshow xmen when I should have

 

[Bgnyc007]

Oh, you know that Hot Toys one is going to be Miles better with the body paint applications, etc. I’m definitely budgeting for the Deadpool and Wolverine movie lol

 

[ironwez20]

I hope hot toys makes more xmen tbh

 

[Omega9300]

Thanks for the suggestions @Gipetto0812 @Venzhe @Master @Earth 616 Collector @Rexus

I was leaning towards the Astonishing version and you guys tipped the scales for me!

I was considering keeping the Tiger Stripe version to have extra arms, but I think I will let him go on eBay. There are already several of them on there but I will just let mine go for cheap (since I got him for a great price) or I may just give him to a friend who loves Wolverine.

Yeah without a doubt the Hot Toys Wolverine that comes the next Deadpool movie will be superior when it comes to the body, paint apps etc. but, I am not waiting on that version bk I don’t love the costume.

So I will pass on that even though I know it will be a higher quality figure. That said, I really like the Sideshow Wolverine figures, they are both better than I expected.

Seeing that brown suite on episode 9 today really makes me want to track that down or see Hono make it.

Yeah, I read that you are going toward statues now. I think if I ever did that down the road, I would probably lean into the life size busts. Maybe once the kids are out of the house
