Years ago I reluctantly sold the Wolvie comi making the final transition to 1/4 scale only to be disappointed time and again by every Wolvie out there. Finally sideshow not only delivers but outdo themselves here. Guys this is the one to own.

Truly amazing piece.

Most often than not those that respond have Iron or Nickel etc in its composition, but most other metals are too weak to respond.

Just got this guy out of the box last night and I am shocked at the quality. Sideshow has definitely stepped up their game with the paint app and design here. The Sentinel hand base is incredibly detailed and I had trouble finding any paint flaws or chips. The packaging was well done insuring little, if any, room for shipping breaks/damage.

Having this Astonishing version and XM’s Weapon X (a Daniel Bel masterpiece) has me positively giddy in anticipation for the Distributor race for the Brown Wolverine. Then my Wolverine display will be done.

(Unless someone does an epic street clothes Wolverine). And please don’t post the old SS street clothes Wolverine. SS took a mulligan on that one.

Agreed! This piece is superb!

Just saw this at a comic shop in Orlando today. It’s a very simple statue. Looks like this should be 400.00 max. But anyways still the best wolverine out there. Looks miles better than the last 2 SS wolverines. This will be mine eventually.

Can anyone with a Wolverine with a properly fitting peg please take a few close up shots for comparisons? It will help those of us with a peg that doesn't go in all the way. I'm pretty sure it's either the length of the peg or it's just bent a tad in the wrong direction. ��

The one I saw at the comic shop is not going in all the way. The gap was huge. Are they all like this?

Here's mine. I have no idea how good or bad it's considered but the feet go all the way flush to the base so it doesn't bother me at all.

Here in the first three pics you can see mine not fitting and off center. Although I eventually got it to fit correctly. It took some slight bending and extra effort seating his foot in the base.

Thanks for taking the pictures guys. Could you take pictures of the peg itself (side and front profile with the foot so we can all see what direction the pin should bend and how long the pin should be). Thanks again
