Default Why?
I just got a Wolverine figure from his toyline, and he comes with a sword...why does Wolverine (the guy with claws in his hand) need a sword? And the claws are active on the hand where you put the sword too....

but its kinda redundant though, "Oh no! I dropped my sword! What ever shall I do?" *snkt*

Also, an adorable thing now, I also bought Iceman from the same line, it wouldn't go through on the till, so they put it through elsewhere and charged me a lot less, but on the receipt it says "Grocery/Frozen" I was just wondering, did the till girl do that on purpose? or was it just a happy accident?

The only logical explaination is that X-Men and the rest of the mutants are always hidind their powers from the rest of the world,so they wont be hunted down.The sword is maybe just a way to protect himself without revealing what he is.

The blunt sword will hurt more when you're cut.

It's just a nod to a japanese past of Logan, but... They should release Kimono Logan with hairy chest toy

I'm waiting for classic Deadpool toy from the movie toyline in my bada$$ country - he's awesome. Coz Deadpool is always awesome. Do not talk about Barakapool coz he's not awesome.

moo's right it is a reference to his ninja links. but I agree, with the claws it's kind of redundant, like giving Cyclops a ray gun, or angel a jet pack, or human torch a flame thrower.

Answered in order.

Because swords are cool
Because the man liked Batman more then Wonder Woman or they feard what a lonely geek woudl do to the Wonder Woman figure if it did have nipples.
You have no were else to go.
Because the movie industry like crap.
