Finally got the new view of this astonishing Wolverine bust! well....not really that great after a closer look. Bowen's Wolverine also not really that good with that umimproved posture. I think I'll still stick with the Tower Records one. Still the best! Save my money also. I've also posted my thoughts on the individual busts.

Question: Where are Wolverine's blades supposed to "correctly" come out of his hands?
I've seen on the back mostly, some with socket, some without.
In the movie it was between his fingers, which I prefer and makes sense to me.
(as much sense as retractable blades in your arms could make that is) :peoples: :laugh:

So what is actually the "correct" blade setup for him?

Just a note on the busts above - all are messed up if you wanna get technical.
The blades shown measure longer than his forearms and hand combined, and
thus they either A: wouldn't retract fully, or B: would fix his hands in one
position, as they'd extend past his wrist, into his hand region.

Just being nit-picky though.

JS :D

Hey, in the Wolverine Handbook from this past year there is a great detail on the anatomy of Wolverine's claws, and it seems Marvel has them coming slightly over the knuckle spaces, however when retracted they full go below the wrist. I think the Bowen one has the most realistic, but then again we are talking comics
