Well September is here, but just because summer is nearly over, it doesn’t mean we can’t get some awesome Marvel Comics and Tomb Raider nerd swag courtesy of Diamond Select! This week there are some really great releases including a cool looking Marvel Select figure of Hugh Jackman from The Wolverine! We are also seeing a great release of Minimates for the film! Speaking of Minimates, the smash-hit reboot for the Tomb Raider series gets the treatment as well!

A Diamond Select Release! Sculpted by Gentle Giant! Based on the celebrated comic book arc, The Wolverine finds Logan, the eternal warrior and outsider, in Japan. There, samurai steel will clash with adamantium claw as Logan confronts a mysterious figure from his past in an epic battle that will leave him forever changed. This 7-inch action figure depicts Wolverine in a look straight out of the film and features 16 points of articulation as well as interchangeable hands and heads. Figure comes with a detailed display base in display-ready Select packaging, with shelf reference panel. Check out the shots, and find him today at your local comic shop or favorite online toy store!
