Pass on the Atlanteans today. I never have any luck with troop builders (always in stock when I'm not financially ready, and never in stock when I am) so I give up. And as for Krang, I just don't have a strong like or dislike of him. I may pick him up in a BaF wave, or if he'd be on clearance, but like @canprime there are other Atlanteans I consider a priority.

Oooh yeah, you can count me in for a bunch of these.

Jean - green/yellow & red/yellow
Beast - red/blue, yellow/brown, yellow/brown furry
Iceman - gimme that belt. I'd take a defrosted X-Factor Bobby too.
Angel - red x costume
Cyclops - we've got the two I want most. I'd take an unmasked head for those looks though.

The "mutant hunter" looks would be a cool novelty, and a set I'd definitely buy - but I won't be clamoring for it. Likewise with their looks towards the end of the original run. I wouldn't pass them up, but they aren't a priority.

What?  No X-Factor Artie, Leech, and Caliban?  For shame.  

 

Anyway.  It’d be nice to see these in the Legends line.

This. Though I think it would be cool if they engineer the human Beast figure to be able to swap the head, hands, and feet, and include human and furry parts with it. Might have to be reclassified as a Deluxe, but I'd be okay with that. Human Beast in the red-and-blues is my biggest want (though truthfully in the Neal Adams red-and-blues).

I love this idea. They really do just need to go ahead and make a new "human Beast" body - there's so many uses they could get out of it just for Hank. Not to mention Mimic and any other gorilla-proportioned characters.

Despite the X-Men being my favorite part of the Marvel universe, I just don't have any affection for this incarnation of X-Factor. I'd likely pass on all except for Iceman and maybe human Beast. I'm only buying the Cyclops from the new Genocide/Holocaust/Nemesis wave to get the BAF part. I'd personally rather see the spots go to never before made characters.

The upcoming Cyclops X-Factor costume is right where I want them to go with the rest of the team.  So yes please to those looks.

While I think a set of X-Factor would look great, it's just not my corner of the Marvel Universe.  I hope you guys get the looks you want.  I enjoyed the comic back when it came out.  But I'm more of a new X-Men fan.  I already have most of the iconic looks from that team.

It's annoyed me for years that we've only gotten sprinklings of this team. Honestly, it's pretty much just been Cyclops over and over. Was this book popular when it was released? Am I overestimating its actual popularity or importance?

Red/Yellow X-Factor costume Marvel Girl is very near the top of my most wanted female looks in Legends.  That was my first exposure to Jean in the form of the Marvel series 1 cards but I feel like they are going to let me down with the hair style and it won't look anything like on that card (like they did with Excalibur Kitty).

I think it was pretty well regarded. As a kid getting into comics in the 90's I loved this run and picked up a bunch of backissues - my best friend loved it so much he collected the entire run.

You'd think the OG 5 X-Men would be popular enough to get made in most of their iconic looks. X-Factor, original uniforms, graduation uniforms, modern looks...

I just want a Hank McCoy with the big human feet.
