Where to find Hugh Jackman's Wolverine leather jacket

From: coventrytelegraph.net
Written by: David Bentley

HUGH JACKMAN'S portrayal of Wolverine has become popular with many fans for the character's distinctive leather jackets.

Jackman plays the metal-clawed mutant in the previous X-Men trilogy and in current release X-Men Origins: Wolverine, where he wears another variation on the character's classic biker jacket.

Replicas of the jackets have become a must-have for many viewers. Last year, I reported how one enthusiast had created an online store selling the jackets when he finally found a quality duplicate of the version worn by Jackman on screen.

The website, Logan's Closet, is now offering a replica of the jacket seen in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, at a price of $600 to $760 depending on size. The site also sells the jackets worn by Wolverine in the first X-Men film and in X-Men: The Last Stand, as well as the jackets worn in Terminator, House, Bangkok Dangerous, I Am Legend, Biker Boyz and Mystery Men. The jackets are all high-quality items made by USA manufacturer Vanson.

There are also other sites offering Wolverine jackets. They include Wested, which offers a British-made replica for £165. Wested also offers replicas of the jacket it made for Harrison Ford to wear in Raiders of the Lost Ark, as well as those from War of the Worlds, Tomorrow Never Dies, Minority Report, Mission Impossible and Doctor Who.

Schreiber Unhappy With 'Squirrel-like' X-men Action Figure

From: imdb.com

Actor Liev Schreiber is disappointed with the action figurine of his X-men Origins: Wolverine character - because the toy looks like "an angry squirrel".

Schreiber plays Victor Creed, who eventually adopts the mutant alter-ego of Sabretooth, opposite Hugh Jackman's Wolverine in the box office smash.

But the 41-year-old is not completely happy with the plastic figurine of Sabretooth, likening the doll to the bushy-tailed tree creature.

He says, "I have one complaint about it, not that I'm not excited to finally have an action figure after all these years, but I want to know what compelled the designers of this action figure to - I'm assuming they read the plotline for the movie and saw that I play this prehistoric game cat - but what possessed them to make me look like an angry squirrel? You can almost see the nuts (in the mouth)!"

However, Schreiber's eldest son with actress Naomi Watts doesn't share his father's view - the Sabretooth doll is one of 21-month-old Alexander's favourite play things: "He has a bag of toys, that he calls the turtle bag, that he puts his favourite toys in and it took a tense 15 minutes (before he put it in the bag)."

Merchandise swag: Wolverine Shot T-Shirt

From: boxwish.com

It can be tricky to express your love for Marvel mutant Wolverine (hitting cinemas on Wednesday in X-Men Origins: Wolverine) through your wardrobe. What to do, what to do? The tight white vest and rippling muscles is a very particular look that works on very few people (what IS your secret Hugh Jackman?) and replicating the hairy mutton chops is a potential minefield of facial fur faux pas (check out our favourite cinematic sideburns here). We’ll be showing you how to navigate through these thorny issues later in the week, but for those of you looking for something more simple and achievable, you’ll be happy to hear we’ve got just the thing – this fantastic Wolverine Shot T-Shirt from top fashion chain French Connection.

Wolverine Origins Schick Quattro Razor Commercial

From: Cinematical.com

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is now at the saturation point where I consciously stop paying attention, and avoid the stills, the clips, and the television spots as much as I can. But now the merchandising is hitting the shelves much to my amusement (and horror -- just think how much of this stuff ends up in a landfill) and though Wolverine is the first movie of the summer, I think it takes the merchandising prize with this: The Limited Edition Schick Quattro Titanium Razor.

I don't know why its marketing logic makes me laugh, but it does. Of course anything with a metal blade is an obvious tie-in, but the commercials aren't about razor sharp claws, they're themed around Wolverine's legendary muttonchops! Schick is even running a contest to award the man with the finest Wolverine facial hair a bunch of prizes. If this leads to a muttonchop comeback, I'll be really happy, provided you boys keep them as nicely groomed as Logan's. Unfortunately, that "limited edition" label will keep a lot of dudes from even opening the package. Ugh.

Of course, if they really wanted to be obvious and true to the character, they would have slapped Wolverine on some beer advertisements, but that pesky PG-13 rating gets in the way. He can chug brews on screen, but off? He has to sell milk.
