<\/p>\n#363 - Marvel NOW! Cyclops\/Marvel NOW! Rogue<\/h3>\n
<\/center><\/p>\n
This Cyclops is in his \"my powers are even more out of control now than they have been since I was a teenager\" suit, though it gets a lot more detail than the Marvel Legend<\/i><\/a> did. Rather than being solid black with thick red stripes, the Minimate also tampgraphs on a darker red to show the light shining on his chest, plus the ribbed panels on his legs and more detailing on his boots. If you really must<\/b> have a \"plain\" version, you can take a cue from Havok<\/a> and just turn the chest around<\/a> - the stripes back there are the same pattern, but there are no painted muscles.<\/p>\n Marvel NOW! is when Rogue joined the Avengers Unity Squad, aka the Uncanny Avengers. She ditched the green-and-yellow bodysuit with the leather jacket<\/a> in favor of a costume that reflected what she'd worn as a member of the Brotherhood: a green, hooded top, green leggings, and over-high boots. This is what she was wearing during the Axis<\/a><\/i> crossover, if you want to have her fight with those figures. She has a two-footed flight stand, and your choice of hair pieces: one with her hood up<\/a> (first seen in the \"Age of X\" box set) and a new one with her hair pulled back into a bun. There's also a \"loose hood\" piece that can be slipped on her neck for that look.<\/p>\n I might not have purchased this set if it had remained a TRU exclusive - both figures are okay, but not that<\/b> exciting to me personally. However, knowing that Walgreens yoinked them from oblivion and is offering them in a limited manner got me to buy.<\/p>\n![](\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/mmmmncmnr1.jpg\" "\\"Marvel")
Blamed by his friends for killing Professor X<\/a>, laser-projecting Cyclops now leads his own team in pursuit of mutant rights.<\/i><\/p>\n![](\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/mmmmncmnr3.jpg\" "\\"Marvel")
Along with the ability to absorb the powers of others, Rogue also possesses super strength and the ability to fly.<\/i><\/p>\n
