Thanks so much for the kind words! I really appreciate it!
Tbh I think BAF need to be phased out for Deluxe figures and leave that extra plastic to be allotted to more accessories

I'd be okay with that, but still like the idea of at least a couple waves a year. Like the Guardians 3 wave where the whole set goes together
Awesome review! I just wanted to thank you for all the head swaps that you did. Your the first one that did the head swaps with the different Wolverine. It really helped me out on getting this figure. I just wish that all of the skin tones matched.

Oh boy yeah, I’ve always loved Wolverine with the big ear thingys, just like with big eyes with spidey, and large black part around Deadpool’s eye

I tend to prefer a more medium eye for Spidey, but otherwise I agree!
My first wolverine after all these years, glad I waited. Now before someone judge me, I tried to avoid X-Men, as it's a whole another rabbit hole lol

No judgment here! Just a love for all things action figure. Everyone's collection is there own.
Love this figure! I did end up changing the claws with some custom metal claws, though, just because those flimsy claws really bug me.

You can switch the shoulder pads off the 80 years wolverine if you want to do a head swap with the 97
I feel like Hasbro should take a page out of McFarlane’s playbook and do BAF waves at 25 and regular releases at 20. They won’t but I would take that easily. Also the title says 95 instead of 97.

I’m rocking first appearance 80th body with love triangle head as my yellow suited Wolverine.

So, do to limited space I can't display all my X-Men at the same time, so I alternate decades. For my 90s Wolverine I just use Love Triangle, but for the 70s Giant Size era I use Love Triangle head on the 80 years body
Because you used the screaming head from the 5 pack you techincally used the unmasked head from hot claws wolvie and judging from the lighting im guessing the yellow on hot claws is bit to lemony to 100% match. One way to get a deeper bend on the arms is the bend only the lower half while keeping the upper half straight

My favorites are still the House of X Wolverine. I love the cool updated redesign of his Brown and tan suit. 2nd favorite is the Love Triangle Wolverine. I think the unmasked 97 head on the AoA is the best skin-tone match-up. And i would LOVE to see a Marvel Legends figure of the X-Men Evolution Wolverine! That Russet and black suit is my absolute favorite!
Long ears all the way! This is my favorite marvel legends wolverine so far. Definitely getting him.

I'll probably try swapping the 97 accessories onto the 80th. I just prefer the limbs on the old body being more detailed and muscular. The softer sculpt probably will work for a more retro look.

I still prefer the cel shaded vhs series so I passed on him. Hopefully I'll find magneti in store on sale since I have the one that looks almost identical, i think it's the collosus baf wave.

In general I just don't like cel shading, but to each their own! More than enough Wolverines for everyone to choose from
The 2018 tiger stripe wolverine what I mean is the standalone version of it not the love triangle 3 pack definitely slashes of the top of my list there

Ah yes that is a really great one. I mean it's pretty much the basis for all other Wolverine figures Hasbro has made since then, so you really can't go wrong with him. I think of him as the Wolverine equivalent of Pizza Spidey. But I never liked how dark and orangy the yellow is

The first Wolverine figure i ever owned was also the first X-Men figure i ever owned. One Easter when I was in Elementary School, my mother bought the ToyBiz 1991 Uncanny X-Men Wolverine and the 90s ToyBiz Colossus.

Mr 5POA, do you think that for the next review of the new Wolverine Amazing you can change the heads for the neutral masked heads of the Vintage Wolverine or the Wolverine of the Bonebreaker Wave?
Always happy to see another Storm/Logan true believer

Another X-Men fan who wants Wolverine and Storm to be together, sweet! Storm is the woman who Logan really loves!
The other tiger stripes are better, they have more detail and more jacked/ripped looking
I prefer the apocalypse wave version. I love the angry face and metallic blue.

Honestly the new sculpted pant part on the legs looks awful when you try doing the split on him, it breaks the sculpt of the pant and make it looks awkward. I just prefer the VHS Wolverine and any older Wolverine with the underwear, it just looks more seamless.

The weird stubble that looks like acne and the super sculpted arm fur that is unpainted and transitions into super bare skin way too early is quite strange. I think I'm done buying figures with that goofy neck hinge. It doesn't work very well, and the different colors of plastic they use drives me nuts. 3:28 for reference. Why can't they color match it?
@5POAFigureReviews
6 ай бұрын
I hadn't thought of the stubble as acne, but now I can't unsee it lol I also agree completely on the arm hair. As for the mismatched plastics, not sure why they are never quite right except that they are different types of plastic. Maybe that has something to do with it? McFarlane has that issue too, so I guess it's more of an industry thing than a Hasbro thing.
