So far this is my favorite of all the Wolvie FS. (#54/1250) Just came to the house yesterday. If your on the fence, I highly RECOMMEND this piece. The colors really stand out. RB sculpt on Wolvie's face is perfect. Really captures one Wolvie's berserker rages. The base was also loaded with detail, from moss and wild mushrooms on the tree stump. To a skull left over from one of Wendigo's kills. I can't wait for the FS Wendigo to complete the display. Well done RB, you hit this one out of the park.:boogie:

Congrats Tiger, I had to get this one too. Just hate to pass on something I know is a home run.

Looks great. Decisions, decisions. I can't decide between the original and classic action. I picked up the brown museum and X-Belt museum but I want one of the action poses.

I know X-Men Fan it is kinda tough to choose. I think I'll go for the Brown Museum and then one of the actions.:dunno:

I can't wait to get mine! This is my first fullsize Wolverine statue. :)
My only disappointment is that I wish the base had remained more brown as was shown in the preview pics. I preferred the brown to this gray color, but that's a minor quibble.
Recieved #46 this am. A great statue. Very happy with the paint job and look. Sold off my 2 museums, but this 1 is a keeper. Have my eye on the "Classic" action pose also.

Congrats on the action posed Wolverine but I prefer the brown museum over the rest.

This is for Randy Bowen......
When I bought X-men #1 for 750 dollars, I opened the box it came in, didn't say a word and put it away.
When I bought Hulk 181 for 250 dollars CGC'd on ebay, I opened the box and put it away.
When I opened the box of the Original Wolverine action statue, I walked up to my wife and said " I knoe I don't say much about the statues I get all the time, but this Wolverine statue I just got is awesome! Probably my favorite of the bunch!"
Being that we have a Wolvie shrine in our bedroom, posters all over our house, an entire room with shelves for toys and comics, my living room is all lithos, with my entertainment filled to the brim with Bowen statues and a few "filler" Diamond busts.
Randy this sculpt is sooooo awesome! I don't think it would work as a museum though, he is all kinetic energy, and i think you knew that! Great use of the eyes, in the mask to show the ferocity of his bezerker rage.
And the best part was putting him in with my hulk display! The bright yellow, tinge of red and perfect beast blue looks so great next to the purple and green of Hulk! At first I was thinking the base was kind of lame, but it just accentuates the WEAPON X!
I'm so glad YOU sculpted this piece, only thing would have been better is if YOU would have signed it!
Thanks again! Well, worth my dollar! I got the other Museum's but skipped the other actions, I'm sure i will get them later, but that was a lot for one month!
As I have said from time to time, when you do something great, miles may seperate us, but ,,,
THIS IS ME, SHAKING YOUR HAND!....an emoticon can't capture my smile!
