I saw a video by Toy Galaxy that had a Hugh sculpt on an Old Man Logan body and I loved how it looked. I thought it looked perfect. I found a MIB X2 Logan on eBay for a decent price, I wonder if I should grab it.

And I should probably watch the X men films soon, huh?

EDIT: I'm starting to realize, there's not going to be a cheap(under $40) way of doing this, is there?
Thanks for the compliments. For me, the hair color has made a world of difference.

As for the Jackman Wolvie on the cheap...probably not. While the super poseable Wolverines (AKA black leather Wolvie) can be found at a reasonable price, most of the other Wolverines with better likenesses (Street Fight Wolverine/Battle Attack Wolverine) draw a heftier price tag. It's heftier if you're opting to customize, as you're paying top dollar for what is essentially going to become fodder.

It's actually the case for most of the X-Men movie figures outside of the first. The X-2 toys were top of the line during it's time, and therefore tend to drive good prices on the aftermarket. The lack of modern X-Men movie toys only fuels it more, as we have not had a new X-men movie figure since the X3 Colossus all the way back with the Brood Queen wave.

EDIT: If all you are planning on doing is a head swap onto an Old Man Logan figure the way that Toy Galaxy video did, you might want to look into having someone commission a painted head cast for you. There are several really good Hugh Jackman Wolverine head casts that can be found on eBay (many of them being scaled down versions of the excellent Marvel Select figure from "The Wolverine") with many of them being painted by the seller, for around 20 dollars (I personally recommend eBay seller camarodude1967 and can vouch for his work.) Be sure to look through the seller's "other items" to get a fair judgement of the quality of their work, but it might be a viable route. You might be able to even ask the customizer to dremel and paint match the skin tones for you to work with the figure you plan to customize it with. While 20 dollars for a head cast might seem expensive, it might be a hell of a lot cheaper than the route you were previously looking into, and if it still gives you what you want, you might be better served in the end.
