The brown outfit Wolverine is my favorite version of him. This figure looks good but the mask is way too tight. The arm articulation isn't good at all. Also, I don't know why Diamond Select opted to paint Wolverine's eyes silver instead of white. Diamond Select does a good job of releasing quality figures so suffice to say I was expecting a bit more out of this one. On the plus side, the paint job is clean overall. Also, the sparring is very detailed. That aside, its a good looking Wolverine with a few issues. Thanks Spot!
"I'm the best there is at what I do. And what I do isn't very nice." is from the Claremont-Miller Wolverine series back in 1982. It easily pre-dates Chris Jericho.
why didn't Diamond Select re-work this figure and give him added articulation that it needs. It has terrible articulation. Very lazy by Diamond Select.
They seem to have abandoned the proportions the character usually had in the comic book and to be giving even the action figures a more Hugh Jackman-like body type.
TheReviewSpot same color backdrop, but a harder surface. either board or slab of wood, something that is colored the same as what you use, but flat enough for the figures to stand on and not fall over or finagle. lol my house has carpet unfortunately so i know the struggle of trying to stand certain figures, like my taller neca ones which has to be displayed on the floors. But just a suggestion since i seen a few videos where the figures would have to be laid down cause they wouldnt stand on the fabric.
Diamond Select has got to be the laziest toy company out there. Their work is just shoddy to mediocre at best. Just look at their Ghostbusters figures. Rampant QC issues. These lazy slobs don't even try. Getting to their Wolverine figure - what the hell is with that face sculpt? A complete piece of crap. I know DS is capable of great work when they try (ex: Sabretooth). They just don't care to try.
"He is the best at what he does" is most certainly an original montra for wolverine!
Nice, I missed out on so many cool MS Figures so there is a bunch i would like to see re released, awesome score Spot =)
Excellent review! I'm having a hard time deciding weather to get the brown, or yellow suite Wolverine.

I really like the sculpt though.
True! Marvel Legends is wayy better on articulation.
that "sparring samurai dummy" looks fucking sick. great review spot. keep up the excellent work
thanks for watching Christopher
Ordered mine can't wait for it have the unmasked one too
It’s a pain in the ass to get him out of the box
@@gurthygus39 yeah had that problem last time.
Whats the other piece of that Marvel Girl diorama?

i would like 2 have but isnt the legends bettrr
new figure reviewer It is articulation wise, but the Select line is more focused on sculpt and paint
powerlifting bend iron yea but online it's like 80 dollars now
diamond select marvel figures body are always weird to me. like their legs are stumpy and their torso is long idk.
i wish they'd would do a Marvel Legends x-23 figure since she's in the new Wolverine movie Logan
Crap for a diamond select, expected so much more, like the original 90s style, and a slightly bigger toy
I want it
why use fabric? stuff can't really can't stand it on fabric. lol
what would you suggest?
