Colossus would probably work, Iceman too. But not this Jean Grey one. Not 90s blue team cyclops or gold team storm. Plus the non X-men Marvel characters tend to be getting done in more modern looks - e.g. Cap, Thor. Its annoying getting a hodge podge of looks from different eras if you want to display your statues as a big group.

I like complete teams so I mix and match. I have a 70s group and a 90s group:
70s: Storm PF, Wolverine PF, XM Phoenix
90s: Cyclops, Gambit, Psylocke, Rogue, Jean, Colossus PFs, XM Storm
Whoever makes Nightcrawler or Angel, they’ll go with my 70s line up. I didn’t PO XM wheelchair Xavier but he’d go with them as well. When I get a brown Wolverine and Iceman they’ll go with the 90s team. As whoever is made by whichever company they’ll fill in where appropriate to build the team.
Expecting a complete team in corresponding costumes from sideshow is just something that ain’t gonna happen. This “X-Men Collection” is too far gone already.

Juggossus was temporary.
That’s not Jean it’s Danger.
And this was a decent comic before AvX F’d it all up lol. When Wolverine took a bunch of X-Men and students with him during the “Schism” Cyclops was only able to retain the “bad” X-Men (except Storm who he asked to stay because he knew everyone else was perceived as being bad).
