Mnemosis Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) Wait... which red and blue? There's this, which was pre-Capullo: http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/10/102687/2017069-x_force.jpg But I think the inspiration for the Classic Toy Biz figure actually came AFTER the above blue and yellow, which I remember being short lived: http://uncannyxmen.net/images/costume/sunspot-bigcostume5.jpg So the second link would actually be MORE appropriate alongside the Capullo redesigns, but we'd still need Siryn and Warpath along with an updated Feral to make the team work as a whole.

Dannii Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (...) but we'd still need Siryn and Warpath along with an updated Feral to make the team work as a whole. Oh, I forgot about them! We already have two packs for a wave! Send Stryfe and Gideon to make everybody happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) And a Warpath... no-one seems to remember poor ol' James. A big bulked up 90's Warpath would be awesome Edited May 22, 2014 by Nessex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 ... Didn't I say Warpath? You know I got your back! It makes sense going the Capullo route in the long run; Rictor and Sunspot weren't part of that original X-Force 1 roster. For the beefiest team, you need to wait till circa X-Cutioner's song and the new costumes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I'm sure these will be great, and I'll pick up a set. But I'd like to point something out, if you'll indulge me.... Cable-4 'mates I can think of, there might be 5. Domino-2 'mates. Cannonball-3 'mates. Shatterstar-2 'mates. Now that I've pointed that out, there's this: Pyro-0. Toad-0. Quicksilver-1. (I concede that this will definitely change soon.) Blob-1. Kind of. This isn't to take a shot at the X-Force characters, but all the Brotherhood members I've listed have been in movies, or will be in about three days. These are viable characters from the X-Men Universe, they are also in mass media. If we take out movie versions, then Blob drops down to 0, and Mystique drops to 1, and she's arguably the second most famous X-Men villain at this point. I don't bring this up to give DST a hard time, think of it more as a sales pitch. Whenever his name is uttered, I shall appear. I may test you on this soon.

Nessex Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Oh you totally did. Sorry, i was writing my post before egtting to the end of the topic. My Bad. I know Rictor wasn't in there at the start, but we do still have a Minimate of him, so i'd like to see the Capullo designs rounded out with a Syrin/Warpath 2 pack & a Suspot/Gideon set. We can save Stryfe for an X-Cutioner's Song box set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Which is the SDCC set. I already decided that. But I DO want a Capullo'd up Feral. Maybe with a GW Bridge? Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemosis Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) http://uncannyxmen.net/db/spotlight/showquestion.asp?faq=10&fldAuto=196&page=7 Ten, I'm fairly certain you and I want the same costume, we just want the red variant, not the yellow, yeah? #5 on the list, right?

bigvis497 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Sunspot 5 is Capullo drawn. The one before that is the latter era New Mutants version. He wasn't in the original X-Force so when he showed up, he was still in his last New Mutants costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 http://uncannyxmen.net/images/costume/sunspot-bigcostume5.jpg This one. My first X-comic book ever was X-Force #16, and I'm almost certain that's the costume he had in that. It was my first exposure to all those characters outside the X-Men cartoon (and the X-Men's comic costumes matched the cartoon), which is why I have such love and nostalgia for those looks (C'MON, DST, 90's X-FACTOR, PLEASE ).

Mnemosis Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) In 16 he wore #4, then they get caught and he switches out to classic blue and yellow as the X-Men's prisoner. It would have been the last time he wore #4 so you're PROBABLY more familiar with the two versions of 5 which became the standard, with the red and blue getting a Toy Biz figure Edited May 22, 2014 by Mnemosis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigvis497 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I don't even really count two versions of costume 5, I chalk it up to a coloring error. Shatterstar had a color scheme very similar to his initial costume when the team got the makeover after X-Cutioners Song but it only lasted a panel or two. That kind of thing was common back then.
