Much like a lot of my customs, this Wolverine is a long-running project, gong through different stages until now, when I found the right head for it, and like Nightcrawler, like Daredevil, it was finding the right head for it after searching for years, and that turned out to be the new Hasbro Juggernaut series brown Wolverine head. It worked great on my mashup body. Really ties the room together.

This custom traces its roots back to 2011, and finally feels done. I had to modify the knees and ankles, which are only singles, so that they have a good range of motion, but besides some touchups in those areas, all its yellow parts (not counting the new head) and arms flesh is straight from the factory plastic and apps, so paint rub is impossible everywhere that's not blue, and I like that particular arm hair on that model and didn't have to paint it. The blue, especially on the resculpted shoulder armor, is a sweet metallic that really looks great with the new Jim Lee Rogue. It's a brand that are especially hardy and strong. This body is interesting because it has a very old ToyBiz style with cut hip articulation, and not the ball hips they used from ML5 and beyond, and this style is what Hasbro is using now with its own MLs.
