    After seeing the Cap set, these are more than a little disappointing.

    I think companies showing early prototypes like this do themselves more harm than good. And I do hope these are early early protos. Because right now, I would not be buying these.

    Since they're just prototypes, and mighty cool looking at that, I'm sure stuff like the thick boots and outfits will be tweaked by the time they go into full production. Regardless, I'm buying a set the day they're available

    I like the heads, how they match up in and out of mask, same with Cap.

    I'm sure we'll see better versions later I think this was rushed to meet the show,doc said"the paint was still wet"I do hope we get brown/tan and not orange as that's the wrong color and I would've been happy with just one head of logan(the two are too similar)I'm iffy on the removable mask

    Sadly, I gotta say I'm disappointed. My favorite is the brown & tan Costume...I'll still probably by the set just for him. I'll either sell the other two, or use them for "custom fodder" and find BETTER head sculpts. Damn shame it didn't turn out better.

    I just noticed the card in front of Wolverine set says Winter 2015. That's March at latest!

    Dec. 2014- Spidey
    Jan. 2015- Captain America
    Feb. or March 2015- Wolverine

    Is DST releasing more than 4 sets a year? I'd at least like a set every other month 6 a year!

    C'mon with a FEMALE already!

    Nice set. The boots and mask have a famous covers look. Hope that can be improved upon with subsequent figures. I'd like to see a photo with the removable mast on the figure.
    They're not exactly the same but pretty similar.

    I'd rather they be the milk bottle plastic or like Mego Thor's boots, but that's just my opinion.

    I don't think Mego would of done the fat boots. Thor's boots were probably the most detailed and the rubber was much thinner than the way these look. These do look like famous covers boots, their oversized boots and hands and undersized heads was what made me dislike them.

    If this line was meant to be about Marvel Retro-Action figures, I would have preferred Thor and Iron Man BEFORE Wolverine. Now I can only hope I will see the Thor and Iron Man sets some day... I'll buy one Wolverine set just to support the line...
