This is nice, but feels like a lazy paint swap. I would have liked it if they had gone with the X-force costume during the Kyle/Yost X-force run. But, I suppose this is one she wears as “Wolverine” and not X-23..... Between this and the Yellow and Blue, I like the Yellow one for sure,

Unfortunately, Kotobukiya has been doing a lot of these lazy variants lately. I've to admit that before I was easily tempted to buy them anyway. But at their current prices (almost double the price of what it used to be, at least over here in Europe), it's become a whole different story and I've become a little bit more selective in my purchases. :s

Yea, I definitely get what you mean. Plus, because they flood the market with so many different variants (GI JOE Baroness and Scarlett come to mind), it can also devalue the figure sometimes too, which is annoying.

"MAFEX"...
Should do a X-23 fig ;^)

Yup, agree to both points above ^^^ And yeah I do like the yellow and blue, so this is one where I'll get both, I may sell off the first version of X-23 though...I usually only keep one version of the character for space reasons. Too bad this thing is a sideshow exclusive.
