So I went to my other Walmart today and they also had the Fox Wolverine figure out, like the other store they had eight out on the shelf. The difference though is that when I was looking through them I actually found one that didn't look like he'd totally vomited all over his jacket. Every figure at the other store and then 7/8 at this store had way too much of the weathering effect but on this one it's pretty mild, my lightbox photo is actually making it look stronger than it does in hand, so I gladly picked this one up as here it's tolerable enough and not an eyesore. I really like how well the calm kinda smirking head came out but then the yelling battle face is just okay, it's got elements of Hugh Jackman's face but to me the Amazon figure's angry teeth-gritting head came out better. As a toy overall I think the Amazon version is just a bit better but the jacket look is also really cool to me since it's how we were first introduced to the character on the big screen (after his shirtless cage fight) and its colors are also a nod to his comic costume so I'm happy to have both figures.


I also got my Deadpool and NTW set in from Target today. NTW is a well made figure on her own and actually does sport more new sculpted parts than I'd anticipated, but then much as I had anticipated her paint is a bit sloppy in areas which is common when we see yellow painted over black. Her likeness came out great though and she's not really an accessory heavy character in the second movie so it's not like anything's missing, but I would've liked then for her power effect accessories to have included something for her torso. In the movies that's where her energy seems to first radiate from but then all the figure has are effect pieces for her arms, evidently all the accessory budget went to Wade.

Deadpool is obviously the reason to get this pack. He's just a really well made figure in all departments. Articulation is great except that his neck is a little limited but still has good range, the sculpted details are excellent from head to toe, paint is overall nicely done, and he has a nice assortment of weapons and his unicorn for alone-time. The only thing off about this figure is the glued-in pistols that other people have already lamented about. He also fills a void since I already had Cable and Domino but now the gang's all here.
