Gambit articulation
 

Hello fellas. I'm new to the Ark, but wanted to know if the upcoming MU Gambit figure will be using the same body from the Wolverine movie line? I know the face will be different, but I hope he gets a new mold. Has anyone looked at the difference closely? Thanks....

I think this was discussed a bit somewhere, probably in the 3.75 appreciation thread. I believe the consensus is that it's the same mold with a new head and a scarf...

New head, lame scarf and yes it is the same mold. No doubt about it.

I was hoping that wasn't the case.....

I think everyone who doesn't own an XMO version was hoping the same thing

Don't get me wrong the XMO isn't a bad figure, he has the right colors, staff,cards but his stance and the coat make him awkward to pose and keep from falling, a base would of been nice, but seeing as he's going to be a comic 2pack and not a single carded figure, we'll need to get another base for him. I would of prefered ankle,wrist and neck pivot/swivels.

The Gambit from the XMO line sucks so bad I threw it out my window. It's short, ugly, has horrible articulation, the design is shit the coat looks like something off a carney. And the design is off in a couple of areas.

If you like it good for you but I would suggest passing on the single carded fig from the XMO line and if anyone want the Sinister from the two pack, then bonus shitty Gambit fig included. I'm planing on using the better head sculpt and trying to customize one.

I have the XMO version. I don't totally hate the figure. Wrist swivel would improve it by 63%.

yeah I have to say without a doubt the XMO Gambit is/was most of Hasbro's biggest disappointments in the 3.75 mold. Stiff cape, jacked up legs, and a crooked staff. I was never a big fan of this character, but anyone can see just how poorly it is constructed.

It could have been better. I need to construct a new staff. The one that comes with him is too flimsy. Although, I do like the character.

Yeah, he wasn´t such a good figure, I had to make a couple of mods to him a while ago...
Gambit Custom Action Figure

The only problem with the XMO version is the lack of wrist articulation IMO.

Same mold as XMO , alot of customizers has gone to replace the coat, arms change into aim/ghostrider's , and hes lacking that neckpiece so people put the neckpiece from the manhunter from DCIH to the XMO Gambit.
