So I know I said that the Astonishing Wolverine costume has never been one of my favorite looks but this figure has me hook line and sinker.I haven't been able to put it down in the last 10 days. God damnit hasbro you freaking devious little toy gurus. You made a sucker out of me in the best way possible.

I find this a lot - a good toy, even of something (costume or franchise) I don’t massively care for, will get me in to something. Those jada sf toys got me binging street fighter games/movies etc!

Bit of a side step, but has Dan ever acknowledged which Wolverine was his favorite or is that one that still hasn't been revealed yet?

Every time this thread gets a bump, I'm going to wonder out loud if my order for the Sabertooth 2 pack (which I ordered right away) will ever get filled.  "Estimated arrival:  Whichever month it currently is".

Yea that's what I'm hoping for. I ordered it within minutes of it being up for preorder but only a small number seemed to have been shipped. Hoping it doesn't get cancelled.

I did not order immediately, but am in the same boat.

Bbts still has the Sabertooth 2 pack up in my orders as a preorder and keeps pushing back the release date.

One thing to note here is that the BBTS web site has always automatically pushed future release dates up to the next month whenever their projected release date passes.  I'm sure there are hundreds or thousands of people with pre-orders that never get fulfilled but continue to claim they will be released this month.

I've had Star Wars Black Series orders for Captain Rex for years now after they were supposedly going to be re-released a few years ago.  I think they're finally releasing him later this year, but the pre-order release month has been bumped repeatedly for years.  Most of these types of orders will never be filled.

@dathing I came back to this thread wondering the same thing. Can't imagine we're getting much else before the end of the year unless they have another Deadpool vs Wolverine release coming after the initial series?

Yes it was revealed that the Hellverine was Dan's favorite for this year. I was hoping that it was the MvC styled wolverine but it looks like my projections weren't off by much since that will be a part of next years assortment if the leaks are to be trusted. Mayve they'll be revealed by 10/27?

@stoopid_sandwich I specifically remember during the Strange Tales wave reveal, Ryan Ting said that Hellverine was Dan Yun's favorite one, but then moments later he played like he got a text from Dan saying that it wasn't his favorite one.

@thwippersnapper oh no shit? Well then maybe there is something to this leaked list after all and it is the MvC Wolverine. because as far as we know its the only other Wolverine on the list

@stoopid_sandwich yeah the Hellverine favorite thing was a joke.  It still hasn't been revealed.

That maybe-Secret Wars brown/tan Wolverine they snuck into that case on the last day might be the favorite, yes?

@trunks3540 On the last day of SDCC a new Brown suit Wolverine (with brighter colors and a new head) showed up in the case with the other figs. It's a Secret Wars Wolverine presumably from an upcoming wave.
