Marvel Legends Gamerverse

So the Wolverine 2 pack arrived today I like Silver Samurai even less than I thought I would. No use for him.

Wolverine is such a mixed bag. The body is so damn amazing. Top notch. But... I absolutely hate all the "gamerverse" changes. Overly long mask and boot wings. Those stupid claws. Yeah, don't like them at all. Oh, and lack of the boot swivel is so dumb.

But I didn't read about how his claws are removable. So I have to decide, do I swap them or cut them shorter. I'm also really considering cutting his cowl shorter. Thing is, after I do this, Hasbro will re-release him in a "comic" version.
At this point why even keep it?

It's all Negative column in the write up.
 
I *really* like Wolverine in hand. I'm absolutely loving having a double ball torso on a ML figure and feel more than ever it needs to become standard. He's definitely a little too big, but I've got so many tiger stripe Wolverines I don't really care. I will be very happy to buy a 90s feral/bandana Wolverine on this body - especially if they put out Cannonball in X-Men uniform around the same time.

Maybe that's the ticket to getting the red Elektra. Do a two pack off that one issue where she tried to help.
 
So credit where credit is due - my Wolverine is a hot mess. His head-wing is still warped, his hip is so weirdly aligned that have no idea how to fix him, but... it's fricken FUN to pose him. He's enormous, I'll never put him in a Legends display because he's too damned big, just HUGE for Wolverine, but he's also become my "mess around with this figure on conference calls to keep myself busy" figure. He's just ridiculously fun, as an action figure, in a vacuum. I may actually put him with a McFarlane Batman or something. I'm glad I have him. I wish I had one that wasn't BORKED, but I can't say he's not a good toy.

You and I won't stop beating this dead horse, yet it bears repeating: the double ball torso should be the standard.

If I owned him, I'd definitely throw him in with 1/10 figures.
 
Well Gamerverse Cap and Venom are available on Gamestops website now and I confirmed at the store the release date to warehouse was yesterday. I should have my newest Cap within the next week or so! Can't wait! I'll most likely sell off Venom and get some of my money back. I don't need him in blue.
 
Opted for 2 sets... thinking I will swap the thigh holsters with some of my SHIELD agents for variety and removed the white paint from Punisher's leg. The second set was on the strength of the Fury figure which will actually work well for a WWII display with Logan and Cap. Punisher is nice, but a black and white version has to be a lock for 2026 with the Spider-Man movie.
 
I want to order more than one set in support of more action figures wearing handsome and sensible sweaters, but the price point is a little prohibitive for that. Just know that I respect your style, video game Nick Fury.
