Oh Kniw. Quiet youll wake him. Oh My. Its kind-of more adorable than the regular wolverine.

[DavyJonesLocker]

:eek::eek::eek: ...You didn't find this in Saint Cloud did you!?!?!?!?!?! I want it for me!! Either way, if anyone deserves too find one it would be you I guess.

[Soundwave]

I always ignore the Wolverines I see, guess its time to be on the look out for this one.

[FiendForMuggs]

very nice. i'm on the look out now haha

[checkmynikes]

is this a production error or is it a legitimate variant?

[P05TMAN]

Hmmm looks kinda cute. I'd rather hold onto Pirate Venom though :p

[starhammer]

congrats, awesome find! since i found out about this guy on these boards, i check every wolverine i see at stores, so far no luck. seeing this picture makes me think of elmer fudd saying "shhh, be vewy, vewy quiet".

[JoshFlowers]

Production error.

[lilikara]

Gratz on the find litepink :D

[Marker]

Production error.

So it's nothing like the different eyed Vaders?

[litepink]

some people say "variant", but i suppose this is technically an error. a very popular error though,

[Are-Jay]

So how many do we currently know exist? 2-3?

[B.A.L.D]

I can't believe these leave the warehouse. Great, congrats on finding it.

[iHEARTmuggs]

Weird. Just like the time when I saw a beat up Stormtrooper at TRU and the box was clean and everything. When I mean beat as in like it looked like someone threw it at a wall or something.

[deadpool]

wait..gonna try something.


WAKE UP BUB!!! WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP!!!!

did it work?

[Derek]

It is probably worth alot, because production errors are rare, keep it in the box!

[toyboy]

WOW!! If i saw one im also going to get one. its a must have. :) congrats litepink

[litepink]

So how many do we currently know exist? 2-3?
yea i would like to know too. if you google this you only get forums and threads of people talking about it. based on my research, ive only heard of one, plus the one i have.
hopefully more will pop up.

or i could be selfish and hope i have one of only 2...:p

[Grimace404]

Hey folks!

Resurrecting this thread because I just scored a "Sleeping/ Hibernating Wolvie". Looks like there might be more than just a couple out there.

Anyone know how much he's worth? I'd hate to get rid of him, but I could probably use the cash for the holidays and everything.

Later!

we could be in a club together ;). i did a bunch of googleing and i only found one on 'the lounge', mine, and now yours. im sure there are more though right?? you should post pics. seriously though, congrats!!! where'd you find it?

[chuchoco]

Thanks Pink! I think my heart stopped when I saw him! He was at TRU, maybe for a while as they've had 4 or 5 Wolvies I never bothered looking through for the longest, then he was just right there front and center on the shelf 2 days ago.

I'll put up some pics next week, my neighbor's got the digital camera I use for the holiday weekend.

A couple weeks ago, someone on 'The Fwoosh' said they saw one, but they also lived here in Indy and didn't specify where. It might be the same one I grabbed, though, because she said she didn't have the money to buy it. I dunno....weren't people aware it existed before you found yours? There has to be more than just our two, when you did the google searches, did you try other names like "Sleeping Wolverine" or "No-eyes Wolverine"?

[Cyberscream]

That's kinda odd looking.

[litepink]

i tried all sorts of words: sleeping, variant, error, hibernating. i checked ebay and there was nothing. i only found a guy on the lounge with one. guessing theres more than 3, but only three that i can confirm so far. super rare none the less.

[Spider-Man]

Lmao thats really funny. Nice post.

[Grimace404]

So, I mentioned it in the "Rare Marvel Muggs" thread, but thought I should post it here.

I'm thinking of selling my Hibernating Wolverine variant if anyone's interested. I'd love to keep him since he's so insanely rare (and cute!), but I could really use the money to do some stuff to my car.

I can post some pics in the next day or two. If anyone's interested, hit me up.

Thanks!

Whats the asking price??

[e0rtm0de]

Sick... to be honest, I saw a GALACTUS like that about a month ago.. I thought it was stupid to get it because they missed the eyes but now it seems like its worth having. SHIT i shouldve gotten that.
It could be a variant right?

No, it is a factory flaw

[Claudius]

I now check to see if every mugg I look at has the facial features they're supposed to come with LOL I think I would be fun to fun to find a hibernating or pirate/winking Mugg!

[Grimace404]

Well, I'm really not sure. I wanna be fair and I'm definitely not looking to screw anyone, but I could also really use the money these days. I was thinking of doing some kind of "auction", sort of, in the trade forum.

I'm thinking I'll just post a thread and let it run for a week and whoever bids the highest after a week gets him. Does that sound fair?

I'll have pics up Sunday night and probably start the auction Monday or Tuesday.

I say just do eBay. Can't get much fairer than that.

[Grimace404]

Well, I kinda hate ebay and their evil ways. Plus I wanted someone here to get him.

After talking it over a little with Litepink, I've decided to go ahead and set up an auction thread on here in the trade forum. It'll start Monday or Tuesday and run until next Sunday or Monday night. I'm just gonna have everyone PM me their offers, then at the end of each day (or whenever I'm here and the price goes up), I'll post the highest bid in the thread. I'm thinking bidding will start at $20.

I'll get those pics up later tonight or early tomorrow. I need to borrow my neighbor's camera.

[Deadpool01]

I bet they just forgot to stick on his eyes!

[Grimace404]

Hey everyone!

So my neighbor who's camera I was going to borrow to take pictures of my Sleeping/Hibernating Wolvie wound up leaving town early for Christmas. I don't want to start the auction without pics up so it's been briefly postponed until Friday or Saturday at the latest. If anyone has questions, feel free to message me.

Take care and Merry Christmas everybody!

[Grimace404]

Hey everybody! Had some problems getting a camera, but I finally got those pics ready. Here ya go:

Auction starts tomorrow. I'll post a link here when it starts running.

Thanks!

Sleeping Wolverine > 10 Ghost Riders

[legoguy]

I'd really like to have one of these, but I'd be opening it if I had it. I wonder if I could remove the white from his face without messing up the black paint. Anybody know how hard it would be to do without messing the Mugg up?

[true]

I wonder if you can tell the difference if you just sharpied his eyes black

[makxsh1mum]

I thought the same thing before. lol.

[Grimace404]

Ok everybody! The auction is now fully up and under way. Here's the link:

HOW THE AUCTION WILL WORK:

Just PM me your offer. Everytime I check back here (around 2-3 times a day), I'll post in that thread what the current high bid is, if it increases. The bidding will run until Sunday (1/10) night at midnight. Postage will be up to the winning bidder, but it shouldn't cost more than 5 or 6 dollars to ship. I'll ship with plenty of extra padding to make sure he gets to you in the best condition possible. The box is already in very good shape.

If anyone has any questions at all, feel free to contact me.

Thanks again!

[legoguy]

I thought the same thing before. lol.

A sharpie would most likely be too shiny. I'd probably have to remove the white to make it look good enough.
