Wolverine Kotobukiya!!!

[pixel8]

Kotobukiya really have to speed up their superheroes figures. Can't wait to accumulate a whole series of them, couldn't afford statues from other companies.

Kotobukiya makes some great stuff!

I dont know, here's how I see it:

Wolverine charges upward with his arms stretched, enters the sentinels head through the red area, comes out the other side destroying the head in the prosess ---> hence the bits and pieces hanging over him. I think that's what this piece represents, Wolvie getting from point A to B.
(ofcourse everybody knew that, I just like drawing lines and using colors 'n stuff )





The style is also different than any other statue, it's a style Koto does more. I remember a Batman statue in the same style, maybe sculpted by the same person?

Here are some other examples of the Koto style:





I think it worked out better on Wolvie than on Batman.
