In my opinion the only good XMO Wolverine is the Astonishing version. Which is actually a different mold then the other XMO Wolverine mold. It's taller and more detailed. That being said, all the XMO Wolverine molds are in my opinion too small and out of scale with the MU line. I know many disagree and think the hight is more in scale but not only is it too small but it looks puny when compared to other figures. It's not wide enough. I know the MU Wolverine is too tale but for the most part it looks more in scale. Also the style and paint of the MU version looks better with the other figures in the line.
Not sure why anyone would be against a new MU sculpt. We all know that so long as there's a MU line and XMO titles in the works, that there will be a bunch of Wolverine releases. Why not invest in a new sculpt when we all know it's going to get some serious milage, and just maybe they can get it somewhere in the goldilocks scale zone.
And as far as rocker ankles are concerned, they not only seem to be more sturdy than the lone peg joints, but they allow for a much wider range of movement and far more poses. And I'm sorry but who doesn't hate the single claw crap wit the XMO mold. I have to carve those out and it's easy to mess up. I would also say the paint apps on the XMO figures are poorly executed.
In the end I would say that to each their own, but why not support a new mold. It could turn out really sweet.
