Charades Marvel X-Men Cyclops Costume, As Shown, Small

Product Information

Cyclops was still dealing with having merged with Apocalypse when Magneto kidnapped Xavier, and only a small team of X-Men could help.

He dropped the belt in favor of a gold clasp over his heart that contained a red "X" within its center.These were essentially the same as their previous outfits, but with minor alterations to the color scheme. This costume became a mainstay in the Marvel Universe for decades, perhaps best being remembered as Cyclops' costume during Secret Wars and the Dark Phoenix Saga. In situations that required the use of their powers, the team used the cover identities of the "X-Terminators," along with a new set of costumes.

It's for this reason that the line's first two launches were "Ultimate Spider-Man" in 2000 and "Ultimate X-Men" in 2001, both of which had been or were soon to be big-budget films. After Xavier was arrested, Scott Summers and the other X-Men found themselves on the run from Detective Eric Magnisky (that reality's Magneto). Sadly once the 14 day guarantee period has passed we can only accept items back that clearly have manufacturing faults. For the first time, his costume featured no yellow, these sections of his previous costume now being colored white. You have just about had enough of all the grim and dark themes of most heroes’ clothes these days, so maybe it is time to bring back some of that classic color!

On Cyclops, it was visible when his jacket was zipped up, on the elbows of his jacket and on his oversized gloves. Subsequently, the familiar Jim Lee designed costume that Cyclops had worn for approximately seven years was discarded and replaced with a black leather outfit. Their heroic efforts resulted in a grateful city giving the team a ticker-tape parade: an increasingly rare moment of togetherness between mutant and human.
