Schism

Nice, slim. You like that Wolverine better than the Astonishing figure? Yours looks kinda thick and too big to me. I don't know man.

 

[spideyboy_1111]

judging by X-force wolvie (same mold) he is too big imo. good sculpt though

I can't wait to snag these 4

 

[Spider-Jay420]

Yeah, I'll stick with my Astonishing Wolverine. I do want to see that Emma Frost. That diamond variant I use now is ugly as hell.

When I looked at the photo of Wolverine and Cyclops fighting, I had that terribly awesome dialogue box from AVX pop in my head: KILL YOU SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMERRRRRRRRRRSSSS

Edit: I'm still waiting for a Lady Loki figure, so I can finish assembling the Cabal.

You guys are crazy, Wolvie is supposed to be thick and stocky. The old Toybiz Astonishing Wolverine was too thin.

We're talking height. He's a big figure in general

Thanks Jay. I prefer the height of the Astonishing figure, and the head sculpt as I have the awesome unmasked version. But overall this new one is a really solid sculpt and feels a bit less fragile when posing. As pointed out above, he is too tall as it's the same fig as the X-Force version, but you can pose him crouching (like the Toybiz ML3 one) so it's less noticeable.

Lol posing the scene made me re-read that issue of Schism.

Have you found a custom Lady Loki or waiting for one to be released? I picked up a sweet custom Dark Hawkeye so am only waiting on new Sentry (if he ever gets released..) and Dark Ms Marvel to complete the Dark Avengers lineup.

Just realised I mis-read your post, I was talking about the end of Schism. That bit you referred to in AvX was pretty awful!

I'm hoping my fellow collectors will be able to help me out here.

Is there any difference between these 2 sculpts? I need to know before I spend my money

Head over to oafe.net and check out the ROML series 3 Doom review - the reviewer compares the two and why the newer one is worth getting.

 

[DrDoom]

Thanks man

 

[slim_summers]

Also, I neglected to post this the other day - Utopia team, just missing Magik. Ideally they could release modern Storm (not her Now! outfit) and Colossonaut to make the team look better:

Same sculpt better paint job.

I skipped it in hopes of getting FF Doom

 

[DrDoom]

I want the FF Doom also but can't find the damn thing

redpool and ffdoom never hit the states. People have found them over seas though

I haven't found them in stores here in Blighty, but have seen a few Redpools pop up on ebay.

I am doing, both actually: if one pops up on eBay, I will know. For know, I am hoping they release one, one day.

ive seen a few amazing Ms Marvel customs out of the Moonstone body, i expect many more once the single carded moonstone hits

Same here, I put a bid in on one of those because it was the best one I'd seen, but didn't win. I wish Hasbro would just release their own version using that body though; it would be cheaper for me to buy and crazy-simple for them to make.

Still pretty disappointed that Rogue got dropped from that wave. Guess I'm going to have to buy the old Toybiz version. Having an X-Men display with no Rogue makes me feel all empty inside.
