    Wolverine retro set

    I just got a wolverine retro set and they boxed figure came with no hands. Is that normal? My captain America boxed figure had hands. I had some extra hands, but the skin color doesn't match. Has anyone else experienced the same thing?

    must have been an unfortunate accident with the adamantium claws. Don't worry the healing factor will kick in. In truth Diamond cut a corner there, no hands on the body in the box.

      Thanks. I just wish I had hands that match the wolverine body. He's got a darker shade on him. I'll check if doc's got some that color and pick them up with my next order.

        Aren't his hands covered by the gloves?

          Nope, the yellow retro boxed wolverine has gloves over handless nubs of arms.

            What I meant was why should anyone be concerned of a different shade in hands if these are to be covered by the gloves...

              I used the old Cast-A-Way hands in the darker color, and it was close in color:

                I switched the body out for a vintage mego body so it was a moot point for me. I feel the tanning of the mego body is closer to what wolverine should have anyway, so that's what I used.
