GeekHangover takes a look at the new
X-Men Marvel Legends Fang (Ch'od Build-A-Figure) from
Hasbro. This figure is available from our sponsors
Big Bad Toy Store and
Entertainment Earth.
Check out the images for this figure below in our
GALLERY and be sure to share your thoughts about it in the

I would say, the point is they should have made Fang at a 5'4" height. That way you could just put one of many extra Wolverine heads and hands, we all should have by now, on him for the classic Fang Wolverine from the Dark Phoenix saga. While Fang is variable, they all check in pretty short. And now we are gonna get a Fang and the inevitable Fang Wolverine instead of just displaying this guy in two different ways or buying two if you really want both at once. I have always liked this guy, and will be getting him. Hopefully on clearance though. More Imperial Guards!

I'm not in the scale police so often characters on the wrong molds don't bug me, just curious how they measured up in the comics you are referring to
There have been different Fangs given they keep dying and being replaced, but they one who Logan stole the costume from was only an inch taller than Logan, so putting Fang on the Wolverine body would have been okay

It still wouldve been Fang if on the Wolverine buck just adding an alternate Logan head and claw hands. Or vice versa.

No. What most people were saying is that this would come with a Wolverine head as well as Fang. They never said it was Wolverine, just that it could be turned into Wolverine. It didn't happen though.

I thought that too, but I bet any money they will release a Wolverine in the Fang outfit sometime in the future thus why they didn't include any wolvie parts or make this on the Wolvie buck.
I'm just stoked to have a Fang figure, it's one of my lesser favs of the wave, but he's a cool looking character to me, and they did this fair enough.
