I’ve been posting my #X-Men collection on Insta for a while now, not going to abandon it just yet since there are too many good people still there, but eager to see how things are over here as well. So I’m going to start parallel posting on both and see where this goes…

Strong Guy arrived and he’s spectacular! The BAF from a few years back holds up, but this deluxe Guido is a definite upgrade, with multiple head and hand options and a fun barbell accessory.

She has a very cool and unique style, in particular her body language and facial expressions are excellent, she’s great at conveying the character’s feelings visually.

This latest version of #Mystique is a definite upgrade over the previous releases, with modern pinless joints offering improved articulation and a nice deep blue paint colour. She’ll be replacing the old Target exclusive in my display!

Toy Biz X-Men Deluxe Edition Mystique - some day I’ll open her up, but I haven’t had the heart yet. I know that the design is based on her 90s X-Factor look, and it is pretty faithful to the comics, but I can’t help seeing her as an 80s hair-metal singer.
