Sideshow Logan PF - Your Thoughts

[Chapter 2099]

So this is one of the few PFs that I've never really looked twice at. Now with the hype of the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie, I'm starting to take a second look at it. I've honestly never seen one in person, only pictures of one. (So obviously I don't own one but I may give in.)

So I need some opinions, thoughts, comparisons to other Marvel PFs, pros, cons.....I even made a poll.

I know A LOT of collectors don't care for this piece but I want to know why. Post some pics if possible of this piece in your collection. *prepares the shields for gun fire*

Underrated imo.

I'd get one if it were still available.

I got a few comments from LCS stating that Logan's head is too big for his body... any other comment?

 

[Amanaman]

Isn't that intentional? I think it looks cool, the way it is, it has character.

I own this piece, but that is only because I was able to get it off eBay for a steal, however, it is one of my least favorites.

Pros:

• Amazing detail on his clothing and the dog tags rock
• His profile/face really does look scruffy and perfect for Logan, he also has a really nice paint job
• It is better than NOT having a PF Logan
• You can still pick it up cheap off eBay

Cons:

• His head is too big for his body
• His legs and feet are tiny; and I mean like Santa's elves tiny
• The comiquette is much nicer
• His claws break very, very easily (I had to repair two just from shipping)

Give me a day or two and I will take some pictures and post them.

Thanks for the info. Kibishii. I really appreciate it. Like I said, I've been looking around at a few and am still on the fence about it. I still have a few other PFs I want but since the prices on these are fairly low I may get one. So who knows?

I'm looking forward to the pics. Thanks!!

I have one and I like it. It's not the best PF but its worth having if you like it.

My biggest complaints are that his claws aren't that good. All of mine are really loose and arrived that way. Also he doesn't fit on his stand well, he leans forward and you can see the peg that goes into the hole in the base under his boot (a minor thing but it annoys me). His head size never really bothered me until I moved him today so that he is next to a PF that is about as tall as he is (before he was next to Spidey) and his head is way too big. But I think his hairdo adds to that and makes it look bigger than it truly is.

The things I like the most are the cigar, and his expression. It really looks like he's looking at someone with disdain and daring them to give him an excuse to eviscerate them. The jacket and jeans are really nice too.

I like mine a lot. It was one the first efforts at a PF so it isn't as impressive as the new ones. Yes, he is a little taller than he should be, the head is a little oversized (hair does add to that as well as the angle of the head compared to the shoulders) and some don't like the face but it works for me. I think he gets a bum rap and looks much better in person than in pictures.

That last pic of the "team" is sweet!!! Thanks for posting.

It was mentioned in another post, but is the piece sturdy? It does look like it leans (which I know its suppose to), but I would be paranoid that it would fall over.

This last pic is Awesome

Mine is very sturdy and the foot peg goes all the way into the base.

 

[Vader AL]

reminds me how much i want that punisher. alas, one day.

i also do want to get this wolvie one day. He will be displayed by himself since he is a different style than the other PF's.

Looks like you may have just sold me on this PF Natrix esp. with the prices of these as of late. Thanks again!

I know once the Origins movie comes out, I'll say "Geez, it doesn't look that bad....I WANT ONE!!!" And watch the price will be skyrocketing by then too!

You welcome!

I like making other people spend their money!

Darn, I shoulda sent mine back, I figured that's just the way they were. Anyway even with mine not going all the way in it's plenty sturdy. The peg is long enough that even not going in all the way it holds him up fine. It's just an asthetic issue I have with mine, nothing more.

And my goodness Thor is friggin' HUGE. I mean Cap is a sizeable PF and he looks small next to Thor.

I've wanted the Premium Logan since he was
first announced and have seen him on
display and thought he was awesome. I love
the comic book look and can't understand
why so many people don't like it. I've literally
asked for it as a X-mas present every year since
it came out and I STILL don't have it.

I'm assuming u don't own a Thor, LOL!!! Yeah it's freaking massive and just towers over all my PF's!

 

[beachfox]

Next Marvel PF... which character will it be?

 

[Skiman]

Isn't there a whole thread about that crap, LOL
