I think it looks great, but those elbow joints are distracting.

Love it but I hate the claws. Don't like the shape and they're way too long. They'd never fit in his forearm. That's one thing the recent Legend Wolverine figures have did well. I still love it though. Love the face sculpt!

[GSXR1000]

I'm really excited for this! Finally a Wolverine that doesn't suffer from an abundant number of breaks in the sculpt for articulation. I have the Revo, and while I do enjoy the figure, the number of breaks in the sculpt for articulation is an eyesore. I'm not really vested in if he's tall or short either, just needs this! Wish Marvel Legends would take a look at this and change their horrible articulation, then I would be interested in that line of figures.

I really like the face sculpt. Hair seems a little weird to me. Honestly my only real issue is that the legs seem a little out of proportion. I think if the thighs were a little wider and more muscular it would look better. He's a little chicken legged.

[Tomax]

looks excellent. the only thing that bothers me is on the masked head, the ears are too long and the human head the hair is too flared out.

[Comedian]

He needs a couple of tweaks but otherwise,really a beautiful figure. I am close to jumping in to mafex. I really want the dark knight stuff now this marvel comic stuff is making me closer.

For all you old school sci-fi fans check out the MAFEX 2001 A Space Odyssy figures. They look great. Dr. Dave Bowman is going to look awesome standing next to my Mezco Kirk & Spock!

Yeah,that might've been their solution for making him shorter than average or maybe it just looks that way in the pic. Definitely could've been bulked up a tiny bit IMO.

I've been picturing this in my head for soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long.
It's amazing because recently I was thinking about it and I'm like, "stop thinking about this wolverine, be good with your marvel legends, they are great, stop obsessing..." It's fun to imagine these things but it's too much.

I really wanted this exact, precise, wolverine, with the kind of quality and look mafex or those companies could bring.

Mafex probably being my number one choice actually. The superhero looks they create lean toward the fantasy type comic book art. They look like SUPER-hero's. Not as much as yamaguchi stuff, but a good middle ground, in between the more realistic sh figuarts looks. I prefer the star wars figuarts over the mafex because the realism aspects. But Mafex is quickly becoming my superhero focused stuff. It's like super quality marvel legends.

WEAPON X MAFEX!!!

That new legends line too....oof. A must have.

What a disappointing figure. I’m glad I held off. This thing is a hot mess. MAFEX has released some really well done figures lately so,this figure is a big let down. Not only are the stripes the wrong color, they’re poorly applied. The wings on the mask are so big they look clownish. The claws on any Wolverine figure are a focal point. The claws on this are ridiculously long and look like crap. The pegs on the arms are too short so the arms pop off when posing this figure. The unmasked head doesn’t fit on the neck joint. For $100 this figure should be much better than it is. For $20 you can get a much better Wolverine from Marvel Legends. Considering how good MAFEX figures have been lately I hope this is just a misstep and not a sign of things to come.

This is really the only valid criticism. The rest is nit-picking to put it mildly. Stop regurgitating the talking points from your favorite Youtubers and wait to form your own opinions once you have the figure in hand. The unmasked head that didnt fit the neck joint was a defective head from one specific youtuber and i watched the review so I know exactly who you are grabbing all this from.

That same Youtuber was trashing a really nice Jean Grey headsculpt from the "lover triangle" pack so he can produce his own marginally better head sculpts and charge $50 for them to be put on a $20 figure. Its a smart strategy... but also boarderline con-man.

Going by the comparison shot in the Fwoosh review, this doesn't look any better than the previous ML Wolverines.

[Grant C]

Video is the next best thing to being there. For the record I watched several reviews and all had the same problems. I had misgivings when I first saw this figure which is why I held off ordering him. Looking at several reviews my concerns were validated. I don’t need to spend $100 when there are so many videos out there that can give me the information I need. Whenever I am on the fence about a figure I will look at and read as much about the figure as I can so I can make an informed decision. Isn’t that why people post these reviews? The fact that the paint is bad, the head sculpt is ridiculous and the claws are way too long are all valid
criticisms. All you have to do is look at it and you can see these things. Reviews are tools meant to inform the buying public. Videos give us a way to check out a figure without having to buy something we will regret. If a figure is good it will stand up to the scrutiny.

This looks ok, but I'm up to my shinkter in Wolverines right now. Great for those who want it!
