    I need to just order a custom head of Wolverine to redo these images (also I thought I went with the bigger Hulk?)
    I have some terrible pictures of my awesome yellow Wolverine. I made a mold of the orange Wolverine head and cast it in yellow and painted it. I painted some brown hands blue and made some fabric glove cuffs. He is really fantastic looking now. I also put him on a type-s body. I boxed him and didn't want to take him back out, so the pictures are not great.

      That Wolverine came out great! I understand the desire for removable cowls and whatnot, but this looks much better using the molded mask sculpt. I hate fabric glove cuff, but the length of your cuffs looks very good too. Usually they are too short or loose and don't have the appearance of gloves.

        Out of all of those sets, I kept the Modern Spider-Man and Cap, and made a TON of fun customs out of the other parts. I liked those sets, warts and all.
        Couldn't have said it better. I liked those little books that came with them too

          Ok that custom Wolverine turned out great. I still need to go back and rework this complete lineup when I discover that 25th hour where you get to work on hobbies.

            Its a shame they stopped including the books after the first wave...would love it if Punisher had come with one.
