It was a custom, so I'm sure they're all accounted for. I've only searched for the brown, but I'm sure they're both hard to find.

There's a brown on ebay right now for $3650... listing says there are only 15. I'm not paying more than $1500 for a simple Wolverine statue though...

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Make it brown, please. Don't care if it is not popular.

Wolverine looks cool in brown, a bit clownish in yellow, IMO.

we need a good 1/4 wolverine. SS has never produced a good one yet. Logan was tight though.

I wonder what would Hugh Jackman look like if they had chosen to go with the brown costume instead of the yellow one in Deadpool 3...?

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'm glad I could surprise you Divo. My question was asked with all honest because Wolverine fans seem to be more stalwart in their preference in his outfit than Batman fans. Batman fans tend to enjoy many iterations of his outfit and will by more - but Wolverine fans are blue/yellow or brown camps. And even if the sculpt is excellent people will say "well I wish it was [insert opposite of what is released]." I would find it almost comical if they did X-Form black/grey Wolverine before they did another brown. But I bet to hell it would sell like hot cakes because that black/grey is fire!

Us fans of the ladies have to be more diverse - and would happily be more diverse in our collections - if companies would make them! So I HOPE TO HELL that a great Storm with a mohawk is on it's way. I will take original mohawk, long mohawk, or Arakko mohawk. I'd take all of em.

But I hope this Wolverine is brown just so I can look at Wolverine in a different color scheme. Hell, I hope they do TWO color schemes. If they can paint Ivy another color, why not Wolverine?

Hell yes it would! Wolverine's X-Force suit is badass, surprised Sideshow hasn't done it...or have they?
