Mondo has announced their newest figure: a 1/6 recreation of the sad

X-Men: The Animated Series, and what a debut!
A Lovesick Logan For Your Shelf
X-Men: The Animated Series spawned its fair share of memes, but none is as pervasive as “Wolverine crush”.

Mondo revealed today a special exclusive limited edition item for San Diego Comic Con. This is a new sixth scale figure for Wolverine based on
X-Men: The Animated Series. The new limited edition collectible recreates the iconic Wolverine meme in physical form, and will be available for pre-order during [email protected] later this week.
Fans will be able to pre-order the figure at MondoShop.com on Friday, July 23 at 1:00 pm ET. The Limited Edition SDCC Variant features Wolverine in packaging meant to mimic the classic scene from the show, where he’s nestled in bed, cradling the framed photo of Jean Grey and Cyclops.
