Wolverine vs Sabertooth Diorama

[noelleon69]

I've heard that the exclusive version's neck has a rather prominent line due to the interchangable heads.

Any kind soul here has pics of their actual piece? I would like to see the non exclusive's neck for comparison too.

Just want to compare before deciding which to get. :)

Cheers!

Here's a pic of mine. As you can see, there is a visible line where the head is attached. It's not as visible with the unmasked head on.

I think that the statue is so well done and the pose is so dynamic, that the crease at the neck doesn't really bother me.

If you prefer to display it with the masked head and the crease bothers you, then definitely get the non-exclusive version.

I haven't taken any pics of mine yet, but I will agree with you Misfit138. I wanted the exclusive for the unmasked head and it looks awesome displayed with it. I really didn't notice the seam at all.

Definitely though, if you are only interested in displaying with the masked head, the regular version would be your best bet.

This is a awesome statue, Ive seen both the exclusive and the regular version. I myself prefer the regular version.

I suddenly realised something very stupid :idea

When the unmasked head is on Wolvie, his mask is always pulled back and is resting on his back/shoulders. But with this piece its absent! LOL, its very nitpicking here, but I just noticed it from looking at the pic :D

[noelleon69]

erm... B-Electronic, i don't really get what you mean. :)

yeh it does seem like the line isnt really a prob. it's mainly visible if you look from the back. so when you display it, you don't really get to see it. more so if you put the unmasked head from the pics as the hair is actually covering the line on the neck.

somehow i feel that the unmasked head looks a bit out of place. it's like the mask head matches the outfit he's wearing more cos it's part of the costume.

thanks for the pic misfit138. now... who has got pics of the non exclusive version? hehe...

I don't think it's consistant in the comics as to whether his cowl is attached to his costume. It would give him a bit of a hunchbank if they tried to sculpt it that way. And if you think of it as a seperate piece then the seam line on the masked version makes sense too.

[B-Electronic]

B-Electronic, i don't really get what you mean

Well, in his first pic, Wolvie has his mask on. So what happens to it when you switch heads and put the head on without the mask? Well, the mask should still be around the neck at that point resting on his shoulders....right? But its not. Its gone!

[noelleon69]

Right... ok i get what you mean.

I'm not sure the fact about the mask from the comics etc... but it could be a separate piece and not a part of the suit? If that's the case then the mask would prob be throw elsewhere when wolverine attacked sabertooth?

[oxbeard]

This is Dave's point exactly. There has never been any consistency as to whether Wolvie's mask is attached or not. So the pose without the mask is certainly possible not to have the mask drapped on his back. And again as Dave said, this is much more workable with the piece.

[Azog]

Yeah, all true, the comics generally show it as draped over his back, but it could easily just slide right off too...
