I happen to like that idea about the pearlescent white
which would shimmer in a metallic way

I think the hair is distracting because it's not natural to the character. Even in the craziest of hurricanes, Storm's hair is shown with a soft controlled movement.

Ororo controls the weather, it does not control her. Which is what the really twisty hair indicates.

The hair movement also doesn't correspond with the gentle waves in the cape. The cape shapes are right, her hair shape is not.

And Cougar, thank you for the silver vote. Need all the votes we can get!

XM will not do that...in fact...I saw Ben say as much a couple days ago when referencing a future bombastic statue coming out soon.

I also think the hair needs work. It's too snake like for my liking and doesn't really remind me of Storm at all.

I would agree on the boots though. I think the boots could use some changing. JMHO

The rest of her looks so awesome!

But I always loved storm in a Mohawk

If they are going to do light up for Storm...the only way I could see it work is if there was some sort of intermittent flashing yellow or white lightning that went through the base in intervals of 5 - 7 seconds.

Omg...could it be? If it's who I think it is, I have been waiting for a bouncing comic book 1/4 scale representation of him for years! This is the best news ever!

Yes! Okay, actually no. That would just remind me of my middle aged girth...
