Haven't found an ideal Wolvy or Batman statue yet. This is the closest I've come, but I've never seen it available:




If SS get close to that, I may be in...
I have the yellow version. Comes with 4 heads, 2 sets of arms and metal claws. It's a sweet piece.

Congrats man!

I'm personally only a fan of the brown costume, but looks great regardless.

Isn't the ES only like, 50, for each color?

So this Sideshow release is no mere dream but a reality, as finally a brown raging Wolverine will make the collecting scene? A dream within a dream becomes real!

Can't wait to see this, as hyper detailed berserker Wolverine "mean" will steal our hearts and command our shelves with bloody hell!

Sideshow is on fire, leaving nothing to chance, seemingly covering all bases with this Wolverine cavalcade. Can't wait!


P.S. 1/4 scale all the way(!), as Sideshow is on a roll and the collecting community has never seen this type of product release format before.

And poll after poll clearly revealed the preferences of the community as a whole, as 1/4 scale always won the day. & now Sideshow has come out to play. Hard!

Hope Sideshow can keep this up, because if they can(?), we are going to get it all!

Is Wolverine’s longest running outfit blue/yellow? I think so…but I dunno if he wore brown more in his solo book. I didn’t read those.

Is it the design of the brown people like or is it the color scheme? I ask bc if Sideshow makes it brown but does slight tweaks, would people get it bc it’s brown and is rarely made?

Demona, you've been in the collecting game a long time, so your question is quite the surprise.

The answer in short, is "line and form", (among other things/considerations) of course.

If we just look back at recent history, and consider the "Astonishing Wolverine", that sculpt has neither yellow suit mainstream nor brown. And yet Sideshow made a ton, and sold them all, and still holds up today because of iconic pose/lines and form.


P.S. When I first saw the "shadowy" reveal pics for the latest HULK, I was thrilled, but did not automatically commit. How could I, without even seeing it?

When it finally did come in to clear view, I knew, based on a balanced action "line and form" posed Hulk, with a classic portrait, recognized & loved by all.

We now have a HULK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.P.S. Demona get ready/gear-up, because I even foresee a Storm a coming with mohawk!

I own this custom wolverine, it's 1/4 scale and pretty damn awesome. I think they only made 20 of the brown suit and 80 of the blue/yellow.
