Marvel Legends ASTONISHING WOLVERINE X-Men 85 Years Anniversary Figure Review

[@jonathanhampshire6856]

Nice looking figure. The Logan head sculpt looks great. It's good that they beefed up his shoulders. Many Legends figs have tiny shoulders. He looks powerful. His upper arms do look comically big. A ball jointed waist and soft diaper/pelvis, could've given improved movement.

[@lostonwallace1396]

Brown and beige/orange Wolverine is the one for me. Hope they do that one soon. It'll be an instant sell out.

my favs are brown yellow tiger stripe and this look.

[@palpatine1975]

This one is definitely the best wolverine marvel team has made to date. This should be the standard for marvel legends from now on. Definite pick up.

[@LochNessHamster]

Only took Hasbro ten years to catch up to what other companies were doing at the time.

[@Saiyan1229]

It should be the standard but we know hasbro will never stick to a standard😒

[@ThatGenericPyro]

No more dumbbell necks until you do 'em as good as The Black Series does, tho

[@gonechannel2129]

For Mcu Wolverine it’s the best, overall I’d still say 97’ Retro Wave 1 takes the cake

[@omegashenron8]

@@LochNessHamster They still haven't caught up because they still don't know how to do a proper diaphragm joint or ball joint neck.

[@Wyatt_The_Wise]

To anyone that want this Wolverine, but didn't pre-order him yet. Continue to check if he's available multiple times a day, because I constantly see him available to pre-order after he sells out over and over again

[@kwamintaylor4247]

I appreciate you being self aware and not being caught up in angry fanboy syndrome, meaning letting one’s excitement and expectations create an unrealistic high bar which often leads to disappointment. So I really like that you are aware of that dynamic. So many other KZbinrs can get salty due to their passion turning into angry fanboy syndrome, which can taint one’s enjoyment.

[@iGAM3MAN]

Finally good Claws

[@ThatGenericPyro]

*Really* hope they stick with the "movie-style" ones from now on, they look way better than the dinky little ones most Wolverines have come with (not counting the X-Force style, of course)...

[@OpticBlast-yk5hf]

I really hope we get Kitty Pryde soon. She better come with Lockheed.

[@zachseatdriver9671]

Im hoping they make a classic brown suit wolverine on this body. It looks like a nice figure but im just not interested in this look for him

[@themarzbars138]

Idk, this is alright. I mean its great to have an inverted waist, but you remove the boot swivel and head hindge so he can't look up. One step forward, for Two steps back. It's mid

[@knightshifter2201]

As far as Marvel Legends go this is definitely the best Wolverine by far

[@ChorusAndTheRing]

Interesting head swap, it works for me somehow. I don't think it looks big for that body, it's more likely the arms, which are too big.

[@tyrenblanch9739]

This marvel legends 85 years astonishing wolverine figure is awesome I will be definitely picking him up 😊😮❤

[@Bertacular]

thank you because I purchased 1 yesterday & BBTS sold out again today 🎈👍🏾🎈

[@jordonnelson7980]

That Wolverine Dan is teasing is definitely the new Hugh Jackman suit

[@GoblinFootball13]

They said multiple times that it's the favourite version of Wolverine for Dan. But we only get to see Hugh Jackman's suit in the Deadpool movie, so I doubt that they were talking about it. Also, Dan is more of a comic book guy

[@youcantalwaysgetwhatyouwan8419]

I’m cool with him not having the range of movement that retro spiderman does, I’m just satisfied they finally updated the tooling for him. And a nice modern Logan headsculpt was much needed

[@kailryu]

The lack of boot swivel is an issue for me as I was planning to swap the Ramos style boots from the Jubilee baf wave figure onto him. Currently the hot claws figure looks like a better alternative for kitbashing towards the ideal version of this costume that I want

[@DeadpoolXI1]

This is my favorite Wolverine suit for Wolverine and I'm gonna buy it but to be honest it's really disappointing... - They miss 90% of the times they try to make a ball articulation for the head, this one seems like he doesn't have a neck - That torso articulation is very limited - The proportions are odd for me, his arms are way too big and he shouldn't be that tall, the old Wolverines they've made are perfect proportion wise Hope some customiser gets to the action with this one soon

[@Jay-hy6rl]

Sp why are you buying it when knowing it sucks

[@DeadpoolXI1]

@@Jay-hy6rl Is my favorite suit and it doesn't suck, is a good figure over all, disappointing but not bad and I hope someone or even me can to make it better, so that's why

[@marvelmdc3130]

But how nitpicking are you getting once you pose it you can hide those little things you see it’s also about how creative you can get when you pose the figure i guarantee I can get that figure in all kinds of dynamic poses that would look awesome. Stop complaining and get creative. If not then don’t buy it

[@DeadpoolXI1]

@@marvelmdc3130 I will do both, complain and get creative, is a good figure but flawled for what was expected

[@sebastian8040]

@@marvelmdc3130why not complain? If he feels like the figure could be better then why not critique it for what it is? If you don’t point out flaws then how will they know what to improve on. You never liked something before but still thought that it could be better? Of course you have lol.

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

I see this one's scale is bigger than I expected. I'm not of the order that strays from the source material. Like to see the old toybiz stealth suit👌

[@mr.x6313]

Was he sized up in the comics around the Astonishing X-Men series to ride off the popularity of Hugh Jackman’s portrayal? They may be trying to capture that specific moment in time.

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

@@mr.x6313 no doubt, but I'm so used to the unique marvel legends scale of previous versions. It's hard to like this one, even if I bought it.🎲

[@jasonpatchen1912]

oh they actually painted his arm hair

[@allenllabore4745]

I want this, but the lack of boot swivel is a little bit of a deal breaker. I want to see this hit low crouching poses.

[@Blue_Steel86]

Does the unmasked logan head fit on the legendary riders wolverine

[@Spawn3X5]

Yeah had to order it right way after seeing no other yellow wolvie available Only real gripe is the astonishing design having shorter points on the mask

[@markiearzu3173]

My wolverine figure came in the mail yesterday and it’s not my pre orders I actually have someone in New York that get toys early so I got two of these plus the hero’s for hire and this wolverine is what I need a new body mode definitely my favorite that Hasbro has done so far

[@bapo22]

Xcellent review, bub. 10:45 I think he's kinda tall for a Wolverine. Logan's usually listed at 5'3" except for Ultimate Wolverine at 5'9". If you stand him next to that 5'10" Peter "Otto" Parker, he's supposed to be a head shorter.

[@mr.x6313]

Did they not size him up a little bit in the comics to coincide with Hugh Jackman’s portrayal of the character? I feel like I read that once.

[@russm4391]

Design wise this is the best Wolverine. In just wish it had the boot swivel/ankle swivel

[@11mcglothlincr]

Yeah, I figured that rocker was going to be disappointing. The inverted hinge is always bad, they need to put the rocker at the waist and use a normal ab crunch. They just can't make the rockers right. The normal wolverine body can bend a full 90 degrees. If it had a halfway functioning rocker behind his belt you'd get all the tilt you need.

[@michaelhughes6951]

😮😮

[@Saiyan1229]

Agreed. Youd think this articulation scheme is great at first till you really start posing it around. Its not much better than the normal ab crunch

[@jamesastra2503]

X-Men evolution orange and black wolverine is top of my wishlist

[@CleverUsername7689]

I wonder if that mod can be done where you take it apart and make the hole bigger in the torso for more articulation

[@Bertacular]

Thank you for letting us know that he was back on BBTS because he was sold out yesterday 👍🏾👏🏾🎈

[@sethquigley5136]

Is it just me or are the new claws on this Wolverine longer than the claws in the promo pics? Not complaining or anything. Waiting on this bad boy from BBTS. Just noticed the dates were moved for all the 85th anniversary gigs I ordered so they’ll be arriving sooner than expected

[@fortnitemaico]

[@roberthuff4763]

Man, you’ve confirmed it, the older arms looked leagues better in the muscle definition department. Step back for me for sure in that

[@luckypapi87]

Great review. He looks great but yeah, he seems limiting in articulation.

[@DesperadoDingo]

Would appreciate you doing a proper line up instead of the comparisons being a bit in the rear. As is, he seems too tall.

[@krakatoaj.kraken8451]

Very nice looking Wolverine. Logan face is a bit bland, would have liked a bit more expression of distain. The poses look really good. No boot cut...sigh. I'll be looking to pick him up. (I still think the X-Men 97 version is the best-booking most iconic overall Wolverine figure, it edges this one out by just a hair. (And you can pop his Logan head on trench coat Nick Fury for a sinister Logan spy look.). But I digress :)

[@mr.x6313]

Looks so sharp-pun not intended. I can’t wait.

[@Tazio25]

Looks good, but considering this is a new body, this articulation is disappointing.

[@owene2530]

Completely predictable from hasbro, they love not checking their figures to make sure their articulation isn't hindered or can't be improved, funny enough they'd actually save money if they did, with all the slivers of excess plastic they'd remove

[@blakewordlow7632]

The New Wolverine Figure Looks Very Astonishing, I Love It!

[@pletho79]

1 step forward, 2 steps back? Still a good looking figure, I just don't get their stubborn articulation design when the way forward is crystal clear - 3 ball neck, 3 ball torso, ankle swivel, and for the love of pete, give the crouching characters some toe joints or alt feet.

[@Stopmotionguy2049-cf2bp]

I preordered mine form EE. So excited for it

[@r.davidhill7639]

I wish Hasbro would go ahead and put the articulation and sculpting from the Classified Series onto Marvel Legends.

[@zenquantum1246]

This looks great, but here’s hoping we get a brown suit on this body

[@TVKiDoOfficial]

His cowl looks shorter, can that be headswapped with X-Men 97 wolverine?

[@marvelmdc3130]

But how much are people expecting here the figure cost 30 dollars yes still expensive but you can’t compare this to an import figure the price point is completely different I think for the price point it’s completely fine.for those nitpicking keep in mind that this isn’t an import figure. On top of that what drives me crazy is posing those import figures and the joints are so loose to the point where you are afraid to keep posing without them falling off or possibly breaking. If I am paying 100 + for a mafex figure I expect better quality. These figures here they are 30 dollars. For what you’re getting it’s totally fine. And they hardly ever break there durable that’s what I like

[@Meathook49]

Why is it that the captions always say "pickles at the bottom of the feet", instead of "peg holes"? 😂 It happens with almost every reviewer I've seen, not just you. KZbin auto-captions are not perfected yet, lol

[@derdrein]

Shame on you? No dude! Shame on Hasbro for consistently and continually being unable or unwilling to make a functional torso joint on a figure at least for these last couple of years. Damn it's not rocket science. Don't they test their figures? And its not just marvel legends. Gi joe classified line is increasingly having the same problem...

[@ronsexton3891]

This figure looks great by itself but when you pair him up next to other figures, he looks too big. It's almost like he's a larger scale. His head looks too big.

[@metamorphomisk]

No boot swivel is extremely disappointing. Imports don’t need boot swivel because the angles are ball jointed so they can rotate. Here, the angles are hinges….. extremely disappointing

[@Lonzology]

Yup like what tf were they thinking if they added it this would be the best wolverine but nah hasbro has to cut corners

[@darthkamen6564]

This is what really kills the figure for me. I think that is needed articulation, and so many past Wolverines have it. Shame.

It's a good figure but the lack of disc hinge neck and boots swivel really disappointing also the fact he's way tall for me I want wolverine to be shorter but looking at reviews he's the tallest of the current lot. I mean don't get me wrong he still looks like a good figure but just has some draw backs.

[@marvelmdc3130]

I don’t give a shit what anyone says about Hasbro this is the best Wolverine figure. I get it Hasbro has a lot of issues but they nailed this one I don’t think anyone can argue that. I don’t defend Hasbro but they keep improving trying to perfect their stuff. Some companies may take time to finally get it right.but once they do it. Comes out great.

[@gitwer]

Wow, I... kinda hate it. Don't like the head sizes, don't like the expressions at all, don't like the weird arm hair paint, don't like the giant biceps. don't like the "padding" elements on the gloves and boots which he didn't have in his iconic early Astonishing look.

[@brycebitetti1402]

Typical Hasbro. Put all this budget and hype behind a brand new "super articulated body mold" and then none of the new articulation points added work right. Double ball pegs at the neck ARE better than disc hinges, but Hasbro sucks so bad at implementing them they never work right. The range on that diaphragm is hilarious and pathetic, and i guarantee that within a week we'll have an Xcorpeo KZbin Short where he shaves down a bunch of plastic inside to make it function. The boot swivel being gone is a unique kind of dumbassery, given literally every Wolverine before him has had boot cut and he has no ball jointed ankles to get the rotation for extra stability. Hasbro's engineers are either clueless, don't care, or both, because as long as fans line up in droves for good enough, they never have to improve.
