Is there a picture of this anywhere? I can't find it.

Although I haven't seen the base, I hope its changed. Yes, Sentinel Bases are almost too common but the problem with the brood is that it doesn't have a specific history with Cyclops and it may clash with Magneto. I'd have him standing over Mr. Sinister or Apocalypse (If somebody tried to kill my infant with a virus, I'd want to blast him to hell)

Northern - I suspect IF there is a female, it will not be Storm or Jean. It will be Captain Marvel or Scarlet Witch. I wish it was Storm, in a non-Lee outfit, but I'm not holding my breath.

It's such a played out look on him. I really like his current suit a lot and I liked the "X" visor suit.

Standing over the Brood?! That's a fun change of pace! But hell, Storm had a better Brood storyline than he did. It should be her, in her original outfit, standing over the Brood. Also, wasn't Cyclops not wearing this suit in many of the Brood encounters?

I think this was it



Cyclops is kind of tricky. I hope he doesn't end up with an awkward leaning pose. Even the 1/4 XM Statue kind of has it.

This pose is just too similar to what they did with the 1/4. Only change I see is which leg is bent. I like the shape of the visor and he looks taller on in this 1/3 than the 1/4, so those are upgrades. I just wonder who will really be in the market for a 1/3 Cyclops that is in the same suit as all of the others on the market?

Also, I don't understand the base. I don't recall the Brood being in containment or fighting around containment, but it has been a while since I read older Brood issues.

For Cyclops they did.

Leading up to House of X that’s what Cyclops was wearing. But he had the silver colored Astonishing visor with it.

Wow there’s really a Cyclops in 1/3 now. I only have one 1/3, soon will be 2, I’m hesitant to dive in more. Between XM and PCS one can really build out a 1/3 Marvel collection at this point, times are a changing!

Just give me Storm and Black Panther.

Face looks awkward and I am not a fan of how they positioned either of his hands.

Are we ever going to see a female character in this line? Or, is this going to be like Sideshow's life size bust line where a female has never been made?
Well they finally did Harley... I think there's very real concerns a life size female bust might be sexually assaulted or exploited .
