Here's hoping for those original uniform X-Men! Also hoping they don't make the Beast as LARGE as he is in that drawing! He's not the Thing or the Hulk!!

Steve, whose statue is that (Aquaman)?  It's really nicely done.

Is it just the angle of the photo, or is Aquaman actually missing the "fins" on the backs of his calves?

I need an original uniform Marvel Girl for my unintentional Jean Grey shrine. I have:

Sideshow AH! Black Queen
Bowen Jean Grey ('90s costume)
Bowen Marvel Girl ('70s costume)
Kotobukiya White Phoenix
Kotobukiya Dark Phoenix

I'm still on the fence about the Bowen X-Factor Marvel Girl. Don't like the recycled Phoenix pose and face sculpt. But I'm very partial to that costume, with X-Factor being my first introduction to the original X-Men and to Walt Simonson's art, and I doubt there will be any other statues of Jean in her red X-Factor uniform.

Instead of X-Factor Marvel Girl, Michael, see if you can find this one:

It's from Diamond Select.

Nice mix, I think, of Dave's Phoenix and mine.

Jamie, the Aquaman statue is from DC Direct, their DC CHRONICLES series.

JB, yes his fins are there.  I know it is not the best picture, but you can see the tips of them.  They look like they are part of the base of the Rocketeer statue.

Thanks, Steve. I may have to venture down to the LCS to see if I can get a look at this one "in person".

I found a Kotobukiya Dark Phoenix in Akihabara. Beautiful !

This is the second figure I am buying (first one being Jasmine from Next Men). So far I stayed far away from collecting such toys, and I hope I won't get that collecting bug just now.

Here is a fraction of my statues. I have the rest in storage. This is the beginning of my man cave.
