I made it. Everybody could have his/her own acronym(s). And comments could become like hieroglyphs.

So to sum up how I feel.

Mystique-
X-23-
Psylocke-
Emma-

Rogue-
I love how you are so in love with psylocke when you were one of the ones saying the worst. I can respect you admitted poor judgment though while the bandwagon clowns just fell back. saw a lot of bandwagon clowns that are now silent, haven't even said maybe i was wrong, don't worry though your silence speaks volumes.

Also are we making lists again. =D

1. x23 pro - everything, its perfection con = none

2. psylocke pro - best portrait/perfection con = none

3. emma pro - Love the pose and sculpt con = weak/ok base

4. rogue pro - impressive design con = bad portraits/weak EX for high price

5. mystique pro - love the sculpt of the fabric, the way it is sculpted hugging her body. con = bait and switch SS practice, weak EX, poor gun design.

3. emma pro - Love the pose and sculpt con = horrid base littered with Doritos, horrid EX, cheap looking cape

4. rogue pro - impressive design con = no guarantee on stability, re-used EX portrait

5. mystique pro - love the sculpt of the fabric, the way it is sculpted hugging her body. con = bait and switch SS practice, poor gun design.
Fixed

But, in seriousness, after I've had time to really think it over. I would still rank the pieces like this:
  1. X-23
  2. Rogue
  3. Mystique/Psylocke
  4. Emma

Psylocke would beat Mystique if she had a cool base, while Mystique would beat the as-is Psylocke if we weren't tricked into believing she would have a long-haired portrait.

Again, this is IMMFO. Updated the acronym. People can guess what the extra M and F stand for

Sir, I have to disagree. I respectfully ask you to reconsider your judgement, which is certainly biased by defective contact lenses. And please walk with us, towards the light of Rogue the Magnificent, in the name of Godbottle © Crimsinwing1989

You know I still can't explain that I can be very nostalgic about certain characters, I have this picture in my head of how they should look even how they sound. I'm worse with TV/Film adaptations. I still can't forgive Vinnie Jones for Juggernaut.

I don't know I just didn't see my psylocke in that first pic. I'll probably never live this down, Don't think I'll set foot in the psylocke thread again because I can't remember what I said

lol, i think for the most part the thing that nearly everyone agree’s is that x23 is #1.

Emma would be first on my list of the X-women purchases. Then it would be a toss up between X-23 and Rogue.
I've been really diggin it as of late.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
