My thoughts on the Wolverine 5 pack:

Wolverine - Meh overall, and yet, there is some charm to it. Too bad the skin tone is too light to use the heads all that well with the other Wolverine bodies though. I'm not sure what I think of the screaming expression though. I would have preferred something a bit more reserved and maybe had the bruised head screaming.

Cyber - This figure is way too cool for such a lackluster character. The paintjob is just exceptional and stands out thanks to the metallic shine it has. I like him a lot and I hate the character. I was originally considering selling him off, but now I'm not so sure.

Callisto - For being 90% a repaint of punk Storm, she works quite well. No complaints since it makes sense why she is mostly a repainted body. I just wish there were some other Morlocks to go with her (I don't count Four Horsemen Caliban).

Omega Red - I am torn between whether I prefer this one of the previously released one. Like I definitely think the white boots is far better and more comic accurate considering the silver shin armor just looks like it's glue to his knees on the other one given his legs are all red outside of those. I also like the omega symbol painted on his bandanna. Plus, the silver body gear and the alternate head kick all kinds of ass. On the other hand, I don't like how the metal stuff around his mouth is painted the same color as his skin tone and the omega symbols are missing from his hand armor. Now the tentacles for the new one are a stiffer plastic so they don't just flop downward when you insert them into his wrists, however, they're a boring white that blends in to his skin tone. I think the new head is what is going to get me to replace the other one on my shelf though.

Jason - It is so nice to have another member of the Hellfire Club out of the way even if he is wearing black instead of pink or blue. But then, it's not like Hasbro is really following the classic outfit colors to begin with and that's cool. It is still nice to have them all. I hope it doesn't take too long to get Leland now so I can have the entire original Hellfire Club.

Also, screaming dude came today:



I have another nobody bystander/thug to use in my pictures and in my displays.

At this point, I just need Xemnu's right leg, so I might as well pick up the AIM dude.
