A new statue available from Iron Studios puts the spotlight on Wolverine's freaky android double Albert and the robot’s synthetic counterpart Elsie-Dee. Wolverine and his variants are enough to fill an entire team - from multidimensional copies to android doubles, Logan is such a force that the Marvel Universe just can’t get enough. That longing for more Wolverines applies to fans as well, and now they can have Wolverine's android doppelganger on their shelf.
Albert and Elsie-Dee are androids that were created by the cyborg supervillain Donald Pierce with the goal of killing Wolverine once and for all. During their mission, the robots came to the conclusion that Wolverine is a good man and thus didn’t deserve to die. Since their initial assault, Albert and Elsie-Dee became allies to Wolverine and the X-Men, with Albert offering the team Wolverine-level skills and abilities, minus the adamantium as his mechanics are made of weaker yet still incredibly strong material. Elsie-Dee, meanwhile, offers computer communication and infiltration skills.
Albert and Elsie-Dee are perfectly comic-accurate in the Iron Studios statue, from the characters themselves to the familiar location in which they’re situated. Albert is a nearly perfect copy of Wolverine, but with robotic mechanics visible on his face and arms. Elsie-Dee is depicted as a seemingly harmless little blonde girl in a pink dress who is far more deadly than she looks through her impossibly high intellect and computer manipulation skills, plus she was originally rigged with a bomb to be used to weaken Wolverine while Albert finished him off. The statue shows Elsie-Dee standing on Albert’s back as the two are seemingly in the middle of a battle, with destroyed Sentinel mechanics in pieces at their feet.
While Albert's depiction looks brutal, he wasn’t much of a challenge against the original Wolverine. In the android's first full appearance in Wolverine Vol. 2 #38 by Larry Hama and Marc Silvestri, Wolverine just finished battling Lady Deathstrike and the other Reavers when the team of cyborgs unleashes the weapon they hoped would kill Logan for good. Unfortunately for the villains, Wolverine makes fairly quick work of the robot, gutting the droid and spilling its mechanical guts all over the ground.
While the two robots weren’t the most deadly villains Wolverine has faced, the two would eventually make strong X-Men allies. Just because they’re weaker than Wolverine, doesn’t make them useless by any stretch, as shown when the two used their abilities to help a multitude of Wolverines from alternate universes in the Exiles storyline. Regardless of their status as villains-turned-heroes, one thing that is immediately clear is the awesomely creative aesthetic the robo-team brings to whatever books they’re in. And now, Wolverine’s freaky android double and that double’s counterpart are available in an awesome new statue by Iron Studios.
