@@marvelmdc3130 he's the right height for Astonishing X-Men because he was made taller for that comic. He's too tall to be the standard Wolverine. Standard Wolverine is supposed to be 5'3", 5'5" at most. Emma Frost is 5'10". So yeah, the artists messed up or just wanted Wolverine to be taller to be like Hugh Jackman. Wolverine also isn't supposed to have blue eyes, but that started with the animated series.

Hey that Danger figure reminded me of this 4-part run of Wolverine that featured Deadpool (but of course lol) where they tussled with Danger and in a crazy twist of events Wolverine and Deadpool are so mutilated and minced to crap that they fuse their bodies together when they start healing and you get to witness this grotesque combination of them literally inside each other lol! I think it was in the Wolvie comic about a year and a half ago. Hey excellent review/vid ✌️!!!!

Honestly i guess it does kinda bother me that my 97 wolvie has the black peg lines continued and they didnt do the same for him, otherwise i wouldnt be one to call it out. Other than that the boot swivel did have the perfect opportunity here to be a hidden joint. I always appreciate a well hidden joint but also appreciate a natural movement setup. I can work around the lack of boot swivel, as i really only ever twist it ever so slightly for a pose, otherwise it looks broken. My only real issue i guess would be the lack of movement for his head. Hasbro still needs to work on that ball peg range. Thought they would be way better at it since the first time i seen it implemented was the 2020 retro spiderman. Arguably it was better on spidey. But not as pleasing to the eye when you see it from the side and he has a clear cut of space between his head and neck. So with all that said. Its still a great figure yall and i would recommend anyone to cop this if you see it in stores. Get it online if you can before he sells out. No real reason to not want this. All im hearing is excuses 😂 this is how to modernize a classic looking underwearing character. Iron man got his upgrade this year with model 24 and this is no slouch either. Respect to hasbro for switching up the articulation schemes for both of those figures having joints never done right before on those two characters. My only nitpick is the shade of blue couldve been closer to the source material. Still an instant cop!

This is pretty good. The ankle hinge not being black, and the lack of a calf swivel is annoying, but not game breaking. The thing that irks me the most is the height. After collecting my favs with Marvel Toybiz 6inch figures, I was done. I didn't see myself getting Hasbro's Legends. Especially with the bad sculpting, ugly faces, and lack of paint.Seeing the scale of the Apocalypse Wolverine is what got my interest for Hasbro's figures. Then when the Professor-X figure was announced, I looked at the releases so far and knew they were close to releasing all the animated series X-men. After that it was on. After a while I grew to apriciate the cleaner tooling, and paint. So this figure is cool, but I wish it was shorter.

I have a serious love/hate relationship with the diaphragm/reverse ab crunch combo. I'd be way more happy if they'd put a ball peg in the waist. I really dig the diaphragm joint, but that reverse ab crunch costing us waist swivel... grrrrr. It seems like every time hasbro gives us something potentially awesome, they find a way to make it less awesome. A waist swivel is pretty much a must have, imo. What really gets me, hasbro HAS to know that a ball jointed waist would be better and it couldn't really cost more... so, wtf gives? And that's just a good example of some of the questionable decisions over at hasbro. Don't get me wrong, it's still cool. ...in fact, the movie Venom figure has the same thing going on, yet it's one of my favorite figures. It just coulda went from an 8 to a 10, with a simple ball jointed waist, or at least figure out how to encorperate a swivel. Sik

dope review man! Tbh I have to disagree about the sculpt of this figure. my least favorite part of this figure besides the inaccuracies of the costume, and the fact that he wasn’t given a neutral masked head is the proportions. The arms are too long. The neck is really short, and the chest is too wide for how short his lower torso is so it makes him look stumpy. Also that god awful print tech paint bs they’ve been using on comic figures gave him specs all over his teeth which is so frustrating. I’m kind of bummed out that I’m gonna have to kit bash this figure because this is my favorite wolverine costume in the comics but it is what it is. I’m used to it with Hasbro lol

This is a very easy pass for me... I DO NOT like the "movie claws" they've given Hugh Jackman since the first movie... don't get me wrong, they look great on the figure, and in the movies, BUT if his claws came out like that...?! He'd have 4 slabs of finger meat dangling from the ends of his wrists and claws sticking out the ends...🙄 absolutely no way that would work, healing factor or not... That said, I HATE the Clayton Crain X-Force Wolverine style claws even more... same deal, but even worse because THOSE b!@+c#3$ wouldn't even fit inside his forearms without shredding the absolute f**k out of his arms...🙄😑😑 This version is fine, but too tall for my tastes, and I'm not a fan of anything, "Astonishing X-Men" oriented, so I don't care for the design ,even though it's a nice figure... I'm glad there are people who like it though, and I'm never mad when someone else likes something that I don't feel a need or interest in buying for my own collection.
