10" Wolverine Figure
May 12, 2009A few months ago, I kept complaining about the new X-Men costume designs; I thought Simone Bianchi’s work was a bit off. I am not a fan of that X badge and Cyclops’ new costume. Wolverine’s costume was, well, not so bad. It wasn’t great. For me, it wasn’t any better than the Astonishing Wolvie costume. The reason why I didn’t outright dismiss Bianchi’s work is because under the right penciller, Bianchi’s Wolverine actually looked pretty goddamned bad ass.
Now, Hasbro is releasing the first Wolverine action figure in that costume:
I don’t know the details about the price, but I’m betting it’d be around the price of the Icons figures, even though this is a 10″ figure, and not 12″.
How do those sleeves not ride up? Are those, like, glued to his arms? Damn it. I like how the boots look like he can do a ton of acrobatic/athletic work in them. The gloves are fine but they could be less rubbery/ringy/textured. Remove the goddamn X badge and put it on his belt, and you’ve got a great costume.
I know a lot of people who would kill for a 6″ version of this. I know I would.

I don’t think I’ve seen any of these around here, come to think of it. I’m sure they’ve already been released. Maybe you could ask around over at PTK.
Don’t hotlink the image, okay? Use imageshack.us to re-upload it and use that link to ask for help over at PTK, at the Wolverine board.
Actually, you know what, lemme do it. Check there for responses.
