Watch many of you switch gears after you see a few more angles! And to top it off you compare it with other Wolverines that are nowhere near detailed as this piece. Always complaining. The head is too big. The face isn't right. Blah blah blah. Since when does Wolverine have to look a certain way?! He's looked so different in so many interations! I love the face. I've taken anatomy and his bicep.is fine. The muscularity is awesome. 1/3 is awesome! Every other Wolverine SS produced wasn't to my liking but I was happy for those that went ahead and pre-ordered . This is a masterpiece!

I can see this being a big hit for a specific group of collectors. It's almost a bit anime with the body sculpting. Great standalone piece for Wolverine fans and I bet it turns out really well. Especially with the lighting features.

Not for me, but definitely a very cool piece. I'm still wanting to see other 1/4 X-Men characters that haven't been done yet.

That is an odd look. They better be metal. All newer large Wolverine statues have pristine looking metal claws.

I?m sure they will. Why wouldn?t they get into that market when there is a clear demand for that scale? I wonder if SS had any influence in the LBS version getting killed and then less than a month later, they put their own version out. It doesn?t seem like a coincidence.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

As for fears regarding Sideshow's direction for scale? There are none. I mean they are pumping out every scale under the sun, giving a fair shot to everyone. Very cool stuff, keep them coming.

Gotta see more of this Wolverine, hunched over gnarly and mean.


P.S. I just realized that we're still waiting on Canale's Weapon X reveal! Oh man, Sideshow is digging them claws real deep. Blood has been spilled, this is going to get messy.

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

It does have an anime vibe to it. Don't think too many true Wolverine fans would appreciate that.

Nope. The body sculpt is not anything I'd care for. Not for Wolverine. Not bad tho.

Stylistically, not for everyone, (I don't even collect anime/gaming), but in hand this thing is going to be a bomb, as the level of detailing has elevated the genre. And it fits Sideshow's pattern of recent releases, as it aims to all appease.

Great work, in hand will illicit an awe inspiring knee jerk. You know, for that "true" Wolverine fan, man.

I feel like this could have been an incredible Omega Red.
