JIMMY CLAWS Wolverine Authentic Claws X1: X-MEN Claw Set ...RARE!

"Evolution Claws"
X-MEN Evolution Set!
We have something very special and rare here! These are the original first eight claws ever produced for X-MEN.
These claws were made in the first shots out of the mold used in X1 as Jimmy Claws tested the original X1 claw mold for the first time in May 1999 for Wolverine's Claws for X-MEN.
The same plastic and colour dye that was used to make all 700 claws for X-MEN is what these Evolution Claws are run from.
The reason the Evolution Claws range from short to long is because Jimmy starts testing with low injection pressure to be safe, and increases the pressure with each shot to fill the mold until it's completely filled and a new complete claw is finally made. Too much pressure and the part being made can flash (a thin skin around the perimeter of the claw) which creates manual cleanup. Getting the correct fill pressure, temperature, duration and speed of the mold being filled in properly can also become a problem. A swirly look and incomplete mixing of the color can also be another start up bug when making the first claw...
With any molded piece being made, a full, complete part can take another ten to twenty more parts made to get it perfect, and sometimes more.
These Evolution Claws are the first eight claws EVER MADE from the X1 Mold! Many more claws were made that were rejects throughout the first X1 JIMMY CLAWS run, mostly poor flatness...only JIMMY'S best CLAWS see THE camera.
These claws were manufactured in 1999, produced using Jimmy's exclusive mold. This is a piece of authentic X-MEN movie history made by JIMMY CLAWS. These are the only set of claws first molded as tested.
