Look at those giant biceps and tiny hands! This thing is like a Rob Liefeld wet dream.

That's typical Play Arts Kai proportion though. It's not for everyone.

I'm looking forward to adding him to my Play Arts Kai Avengers lineup!

I love some of these figures but the stands are absolute crap. My Captain America one requires you to assemble with extremely small plastic pieces that are not sized correctly.

The outfit is basically an armored suit. Considering Wolverine has a healing factor I don't know why he would even bother with that. The screws in the back of the shirt are a bit strange. I'll never understand why PAK puts all the shading in the paint either. Lighting can take care of that for you. That said, he is sculpted well. A little too busy for me, but I'd buy him if I collected the Marvel line. I think an unmasked head would've be a nice touch.

I would actually buy this if their price wasn't absolutely ridiculous. $150 is just waaaay too much.

Man, the MU Variant figures are all so aesthetically busy. It's like visual white noise looking at these guys. I've liked a scant couple of them (Venom, for instance) but as a whole they're just overdesigned messes to me.

But that's just my opinion, and I know there's people who like them, so glad you guys are getting these things.

The license to produce wolverine merch must be more expensive than normal because every high end wolverine figure costs a ton without providing much in the way of accessories, this fig is 150 and the spread of accessories is at least decent, but the sideshow wolvie is a whopping 250 and even a few years ago the Hot Toys DOFP wolverine was 250 and if only came with a few interchangeable hands.

These are tempting to collect, these are basically ML size though right? The style is totally cool.

Taller than ML, so they won't fit that scale. These are 10" each.

Man I'd love to get this but I don't think I've got an extra $150 to spare.

Sixty dollars? I remember when they were TWENTY dollars...



And that was retail...

Play Arts prices are getting silly. I have the Variant Spider-Man and Venom and they are both really cool...although I picked up each of those at comic conventions where prices tend to run higher than your average retailer. I still only paid about 80 bucks for each despite that. A buck fifty is just nonsense...
