JIMMY CLAWS Wolverine Claws X1 X-MEN - Metal Claws
"Statue of Liberty Set"
All from original X-MEN 1...These are four claws used as development pieces. These four claws were used to make the set of metal claws Wolverine wears in the Statue of Liberty museum known as Wolverine's "Cuff Set". As Wolverine walks into the Statue of Liberty Museum he goes through a metal detector/scanner and sets it off. Wolverine pops out his claws and smashes the metal detector by punching it, causing sparks to fly and breaks the metal detector. Two of these claws listed here are spares identically the same as the claws used in the "Cuff Set" to smash the scanner, the other two are test samples (claw on top doesn't have scallop cut out where claw goes around the knuckle). One of the claws included has JIMMY CLAWS signature! Two of the claws have holes in them. The holes were used to hold on to the claws as a reference point in the development of the "Cuff Set" used on screen. All four claws are made from the same material, 6061 aluminum, shaped with the same CNC milling machine program and hand work, and are the same as the set used on screen. Directly off Jimmy's work bench...these four claws were made before the claw mold was cut, making them the first claw shape!
