X-Men Marvel Legends Cyclops (X-Factor Yellow And Blue) Figure Video Review And Images

I wasn't interested in original X-Factor suits, but this Cyclops looks so good in plastic form that I had to preorder. The colors are perfectly bright. And that optic blast looks so cool. Is it interchangeable with the older optic blast effect?

I was then on board for Jean, until I saw that the yellow boots are missing.

Re: X-Force Nightcrawler

Good figure though I was never really a fan of the whole Strikeforce Subteam. Not that there was particularly anything wrong with it it just never appealed to me so I never really felt compelled to read the book. That being said I kind of feel the same. Love Nightcrawler. Love the face sculpt and the upgrade on the body mold. Just don't like the color and uniform. I just want a classic version using this mold. The '97 Nightcrawler with the Sasquatch wave head sculpt is in my display. And that's okay. But something about it just strikes me as kitbashy. I know it looks fine but I just want an updated complete one rather than having to put multiple figures together. I guess it's just an OCD-y thing of mine. I like to keep all my figures together and complete. So if I do this thing where I combine 2 or more figures together I'll keep a copy of each figure complete and then buy a 2nd copy of each figure to combine and keep together. Maybe it's just me but sometimes it gets pretty expensive for me with the amount of repeat figures I purchase. Anyway it's a cool figure. Not really my thing but it is good enough that I have to have. Plus I need to have the BAF piece.

I really want a Dave Cockrum style Nightcrawler. I feel the '97 version is the closest we've got so far, with perfect face shadowing.

I wish they did a proper AOA Nightcrawler not this version

The original long-haired AoA Nightcrawler is one of my top most-wanted figures.

That's a great looking cyclops! It's unfortunate that the head on reviewer's version was caved in a bit.

Absolutely Love the new effect for Cyke!

Now we need an MTO or Max line of Iceman with a huge modular Ice Slide that we could reconfigure or bend to several poses. And a "snowman" Bobby with snowballs and the boots on!

while i would want an AOA version, I think I prefer this version to add and COMPLETE the Remender Uncanny X-force.

You know, I love a good X-Men wave. Glad to see the mutants getting some love again. But you know what we need? After the Brood-verine, I'd love a Rogue figure using multiple powers, like Nightcrawler 's head and tail and Colossus's metal skin, like this:

So yeah, Max line Rogue with tons of alt limbs and power fx!

Yes, a multi-power Rogue like that would be amazing! Instant purchase. When I was a kid I remember getting an issue of X-Men Classic with her fighting Nimrod like that.

And while we're at, Mimic from the Exiles doing the same thing...optic blasts and Wolverine claws!

So yeah, Max line Rogue with tons of alt limbs and power fx! And Mimic is definitely on my must haves list for sure, but I want the first non mutant leader of the XMen look before the Exiles look. But I'd bet the Exiles version would be made before the original X Men look. Well, if I were betting I'd guess we don't get him at all, but I hope we do!

Idk if anyone has mentioned this yet, but a reason Hasbro is giving us this version of genocide is because the character just appeared in Heir of Apocalypse (Late 2024). The last time, I think, he made an appearance was back in Uncanny X-Force.But, then again, this wave is also giving us Uncanny X-Force AoA Nightcrawler, so maybe that's the reason?
