This month's contest word is "Favorite" and we were supposed to photograph our favorite figure. I couldn't decide so I let them fight it out among themselves...

"And the Oscar for Astra's favorite action figure goes to..."

"Me, me, give it to me!"

"No me, I was here first!"

"Actually, the Oscar goes to both of you. Stop fighting."

"Sorry, mate. No offense."

"None taken. I know how it is."

One of those Oscars was bought by me in 1994 in California. The other recently was given to me by [livejournal.com profile] fueschgast knowing I can use such stuff. They are identical.

You can never have too many Wolverines! Right? So I just got another one.

Introducing: X-24 from the movie "Logan". As far as I understand he was played by a different actor but they put Hugh Jackman's face on him. He was the bad version of Logan so to speak and they fought an epic battle.

X-24



X-24 comes with a second head and clothes for Logan. He also has an interesting base. And if you look closely enough, the rips and bullet holes in the shirt match welts in the body.

Logan



And close-ups of the body. Logan was not healing so well anymore, that's where all the scar tissue comes from. So many nice details.

Nice abs!

It's National Bratwurst Day but the Bratwurst refuses to get eaten!
It's an original Thuringian one, I bought it in Weimar. I knew a day would come where I could use it!

I did not only buy Logan (in the unlikely event that you forgot his incredible body, his introduction posts are here and here)

I also bought Laura! If you have seen the movie "Logan" then surely you'll understand how impressed and blown away I was by her. She was amazing.
And I did not want my Logan to feel alone.
I would call her cute but I don't think she'll like that ;)

More pictures under the cut )

And then I redressed him! This is his current look. That leather jacket is so soft and nice! Worth the purchase alone. And the body of course ;)

Part 1 - the suit

For [livejournal.com profile] dustbunny105 to encourage her to be a bit more German ;)

In this post I already showed some of my boxes where I sort all miniature things in. But it was only general stuff, I did not show the fandom stuff, other than the big Stargate SG-1 box.

So here's the rest! I'll put up some explanations with links if you want to see the items close-up.
Click the cut, obviously!

Many boxes behind the cut )

And the latest addition, a small Wolverine box for the 1:6 Wolverines. Soon another one will join the collection. It's a jewelry box actually but who needs jewelry? I am addicted to boxes, obviously!

Ah, I forgot the Gotham box! But it already has its own post here
It's the tiniest of all my boxes.

Check out the clothes here!

And then I undressed him. Look what awaited me! I probably should have expected a wound after seeing the shirt but I didn't.

And look at all these details!

And the backside isn't bad either! He even has a "little Logan" inside his pants, the first figure that I own that has this.

So I guess you can see why I am so overwhelmed! You certainly get a lot for your money.

Again many more pictures behind the cut! )

Check out the body here!

Move over Alfred, a new favorite guy has arrived! He is called "Logan Steel Wolf" and what he lacks in being official he makes up in awesomeness. Seriously, I am blown away.
The body feels very heavy, now I understand what people mean when they say Big Chief bodies feel light weight.

I got the deluxe version and it comes with TONS of accessories. I get three outfits with him!

The box is slimmer than usual, which means it fits into a space in my shelf where other boxes would not fit, perfect! I urge you to look behind the cut, lots of pictures there!

Lots more pictures behind the cut! )

This is the black suit and tie he wore in the movie "Logan" when he was driving the limousine.

I did a follow-up for my picture with Wolverine and the computer keyboard. This was the next logical step.

“‘Japanese sword require two hands’ he said. Grrrrrrrr!”

For the June contest of the Sixth Scale Universe group we were asked to do a picture with an 1:6 scale figure and their Mini-me and this is my result.

Finally my Captain's Chair has arrived. After much thinking about who would get first dibs to sit in it this happened:

Some days ago I watched "Logan", the last movie with Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, and it put me in great spending mood, buying the figures for this movie. So my other Wolverine got to play a bit more! Today he is chopping wood.
