Mystery Man Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I for one would take just about any version of Cyclops. He's one of my favorite characters. As much as I'd love a classic update, his modern costume really needs a go. So unless a new Cyclops is X-Factor, FA, Age of X, AoA, or First Class, don't expect blowback from me. I'd really enjoy a white-and-blue X-Factor Cyclops, since waaaaaay back when Toy Biz first started making Marvel figures in the 1990's that was the first version of him that was made in their X-Men line: That first series will always have a soft-spot in my heart. I remember the ad in comics for them quite well and how my dad told me that for every 7 dandelion weeds I picked in the backyard to help him weed the yard, he'd buy me one. I was a weedin' fanatic!

Turtle Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Snap. I can't believe I forgot about that. I'd happily take that one as I've got found memories of that toy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 That was one of my first comic book action figures!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) I also loved that wave - it had such wacky action features. Juggernaut had wheels in his feet so he could role forward, in an unstoppable fashion. Apocalypse had extending limbs top grow in size. Magneto had magnets in him so bit of metal would stick to him. :biggrin: I think i still have them all still MIP somewhere. I went on a bender and started collecting the individually carded x-men toys in my late teens / early 20's. I think i'm actually pretty close to a full set now. maybe 6 or 7 figures away? Anyway - i wouldn't gripe about a blue & white x-factor cyclops Can't wait to see which version of him is forthcoming.

murderofcrows Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Cyclops sucks. No matter how you dress him he looks the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirymate Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Maybe you should start... Wait, what are we talking about? I reserve judgment until I know which Cyclops this is going to be. There's some suits left unmade I like (like the blue and white), some I don't (2nd blue yellow X-Factor), and some that could stand a redo (AXM). Without know which one, it's hard to be too critical.

MsMarvel fan Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 if this line continues the way it currently is then we will have all the cyclopses. and an army of spider-men, wolverines, caps, thors and magnetos. they made pink blouse betsy braddock, we can have all the cyclopses too.

DSTZach Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 sure you did 13 other fucking times. make someone new for the love of sweet aunt pauline See, THAT'S the kind of response I expected when I said we were making another Cyclops! Not this "I love Cyclops" stuff. Cyclops sucks. No matter how you dress him he looks the same. I think you meant "No matter how you dress him he looks awesome." But don't worry, I seriously doubt this one Cyclops is going to spoil all the new characters we're doing for you. Or it will, probably.

buttheadsmate Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 I'll keep an eye out for a Cyclops .....a Cyclops with a beam accessory. There are 13 Cyclops Minimates ? Wow. None show his sole power .Wow. Sole power.... as in only power not his secret bottom-of-foot power. -noncritiquesmate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Wait, how exactly did this become the Cyclops thread? My head hurts. Thaaaat would be Zach's fault. We had already veered into our latest wish list mode. He just finished derailing us. Good luck getting it back on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj87 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 sorry for all the Cyclops love Zach. I too would very much like that blue and white version, I recently sold all my 90s X-Men figures... it hurt, but I simply don't have the room for huge collections and displays. Couldn't find Cyke at the time though, so he may well still be in the house somewhere. can we take the 'best of' talk back out of the Cyclops appreciation thread as well, please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr baghead Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Couldn't find Cyke at the time though, so he may well still be in the house somewhere. That sounds like the best set up for a horror film “We couldn’t find him at the time, so there may still be a cyclops somewhere in the house...” Back on topic thought, what we need is a “Cyclops through the ages” set!!! (after the Hulk set of course, assuming that’s still a “might” release and not on schedule) -‘Classic Cyclops’: Since it can be done will all reused pieces include alternate head piece with freakin’ lazer blast! -‘White X-Factor Cyclops’: Include Jim Lee visor in addition to default hooded visor so he can have BOTH versions of the suit’ -‘Trenchcoat Astounding Cyclops’: Include alternate arms so he can double as an Astounding redo without looking too much like the already included Classic Cyclops -'Scruffy Disheveled Cyclops’: I think it’s an interesting look when make Cyc stubbled, don’t know if there’s a costume this would match best with or if it’d be a civilian look, but a ‘hasn’t shaved in the 2 months since Jean died’ look would make a nice contrast to 3 clean cut Cyclopses.

DSTZach Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Maybe I'll just derail threads from now on. Here's the Best of Cyclops set I want to see: And the suit-wearing one would have the flip-up sunglasses: Also, I want this guy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dj87 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Id be happy with civilian Scott Summers, even made one. Doubt he would be visually appealing enough though. Dr.B - at least if i ever get a phonecall from a cyclops, i wont have to waste the operator's time, tracing the call to INSIDE THE HOUSE!!! GET OUT!!!
