There are female characters planned. One is an X-Man. Cyclops has been discussed!

I mean the 1 female X-men character has to be Storm you would think based on previous discussions here. And I would think mohawk version. Personally I don't want that version and it wouldn't fit with the other X-men so far released, but I'd be happy for others who want mohawk Storm. Outside of mohawk Storm, I would think 90s Storm, Jean Grey, and Rogue would all have too much hair like you originally said Zach, so a mold would be pricey.

But I would add that while certain characters may be pricier to make because of hair molds, I would think DST would weigh the costs vs. profits margin which I'm sure they already do. 90s Storm, Jean Grey and Rogue I think would be all very popular sales for the company.

Cyclops, do want!

Sideshow put out a teaser for their Cyclops Legendary Scale Bust many years ago and never released it. I loved their costume choice, too. The Utopia costume is one of my favorites for him and I was glad they chose that over the Jim Lee costume. I was bummed it never came out.

I would take that or an Astonishing Cyclops any day

If it’s Mohawk Storm I hope it’s the original Punk Rock and not the modern Mohawk because I’d hate to skip one of my favorite characters.

I’d be down for one of the X-Men Red looks and hair though. They would have to cut the hair off on the back though, but it’s a bust, busts are supposed to cut off




But certain characters sell statues very well. They aren’t as overall popular but don’t underestimate the power of Psylocke, Emma and Mystique to sell statues. Currently Emma and Mystique are the only 2 mutant women who have a 1/2 scale bust at all.

Cyclops!

Looks nice! Is the "steam" optional? Perhaps via magnets.
I ask because that look is getting really cliche. There are plenty of people who'd just like a stoic looking Cyclops who is planning to attack, but hasn't done it yet.

His face looks to have a Ron Lim influence to it.

Good question. I’d prefer no steam as well. Or smoke is it? Because it’s common knowledge his beams emit no heat. So I never got the logic of the effect (comic book logic, lol) to begin with. I guess 80s/90s artists like Jim Lee thought the effect looked cool despite there being no real reason for it, I don’t remember it being in older comics but I could be wrong.
