I don't get Rogue's popularity either, especially given the horrible on-screen performance by Anna Paquin (yes, I hated her as Rogue).

Right now, I'm not even sure I would put Dark Phoenix above Storm. In hand pics will determine that for me (and yes, I bought both).

Couldn't agree more, personally have storm as top 2 xm female sculpt. I'd only pick catwoman over it simply because i love catwoman.

What I don't get is Rogue's huge popularity. Out of the gate people were gaga for her and now she's almost viewed as the flagship X-Men female. It's taken me quite some time to love her character, but she will never be as beloved as Storm. Love me some Ororo.
Psylocke is probably the X-lady I find the least amount of attraction to. I think her look - even as Betsy pre-body switch - is amazing! However, her personality and emotional issue escape me. X-Force helped me like her more, but not by much.

I love rogue, wasn't the biggest fan of her movie adaptation either.
I love psylocke's look, though i'm not the biggest fan of the character either. Top 4 x women i'm going jean, storm, rogue, and mystique.

My top X-Women are:
1. Storm
2. Jean
3. Mystique
4. Emma
5. Rogue
Lucky for me I have the first two on order, and we've seen some pics of Mystique. They confirmed in the Q&A thread that they will be doing Emma. Rogue is the only mystery right now, unless someone else knows if they've confirmed making her.

I really don't understand Rogue and Pyslocke attraction either. She was more interesting when she first appeared in Avengers annual 10, when she was part of Mystique's team.
Pyslocke, although cool, I find a really idiotic character. The body switch idea very stupid. If it was realistic, do you think Betsy would want to stay in a stranger's body? Hell no. Anyone would do whatever they can to get their body back. I don't even remember what happened to her body.
Marvel should have made a new character.
My fave X ladies are:
Jean
Polaris
Emma
Storm
Mystique
Callisto

This will make some of you cringe but Rouges popularity is most likely directly related to the 90's X-Men cartoon.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

The Rogue and Gambit love duo was very popular in the 90s. Her popularity (and Gambit's) shot up because of that.

If I win the lottery I'm buying 5 of these Storm statues and having them 4 of them converted into her classic costume, her mohawk costume, her Greg Land costume and her most recent (also mohawk) costume and having the fifth repainted to a proper silver color
