They both look good and I was on the fence about which one to buy. After watching your video, although you picked Mafex as your choice, I prefer the Mezco Wolverine. The overall design is what did it for me. I don't like the painted forearm on the Mafex, and I like how Mezco made gloves on his forearm rather than just painting it. Good video man

It’s your channel to do as you see fit but it’s obvious that you put your thumb on the scale with the head sculpt to give Mafex a point up advantage, but there’s nothing wrong with that. However I would point it out more so as to not give the impression of being objective.
@j3productions6452 жыл бұрын
I went back and forth on the head sculpts. I feel like the Mezco's are better sculpted and painted for what they were going for, I ultimately ended up goin with Mafex because I think their execution was good for what they were going for and I prefer what they were going for. Much of the video is simply my opinion and preferences are going to play a role in that. That being said, Both figures are great and I'd recommend any one to get both if they are able.

@johnathanrue75474 ай бұрын
I prefer the Mezco personally. The Mafex just looks too poorly designed and cheap looking. I really don’t understand how u think the Mafex has more articulation. They both can do the same poses pretty much and those claws on the Mafex are hideous. The only thing that I might would adjust on the Mezco is a slightly lighter blue on his gear pieces but it’s still ok. Those head sculpts and that sentinel base with the Mezco is king though. I feel like it’s literally no comparison that the Mezco flat out topples the Mafex on Wolverine especially.

Nice comparison I really like my mafex tiger stripe wolverine. The only issue I have with it is the blue stripes and the claws being to straight and a bit long but this mezco wolverine has some great accessories. I just feel like the mezcos heads look oversized on that body and I'm not a fan of updating the costume with rivets. I do see that mezco is really uping their soft goods game in making it look less doll like. Mafexs new x force wolverine looks super nice and I feel like they will eventually come out with a better tiger stripe wolverine and I can't forget about legends as they're wolverine is looking better and better especially that they've gone pinless.
