Sometimes you gotta stop being clever and just do a damn group shot.I needed this Charles. Specifically, the Marvel Legends chuck With Cha. First preorder to drop into the May Pile of Loot. Preordered sometime last year. Because Chuck is a centerpiece.
Most of my X-Men fall into a classic 90’s style that is from or compatible with the looks used in the animated series / X-Men ‘97. I’m still missing a handful in that style and I’m hoping for re-releases / updates to Beast and Jubilee at some point. But Chair Chuck is the centerpiece of any serious group display or shot. He’s essential. And they finally made a new one.
And, like ROM, he’s a rare Marvel Legends that goes a bit harder than he needs to. He’s got the Cererbro helmet with the psychic effect plug-in, he’s got a lap blanket, there’s a “jet effect” stand for the hoverchair that admittedly doesn’t look like anything his chair ever did. There’s even a Shadow King headi if you’re so into the Shadow king posession storylineyou want to put that head on Xavier’s surprisingly well-articulated body. Which I’m not. Zbut it’s there.
I threw in my Amazing Friends Iceman even though he wasn’t really a part of this time period because I didn’t really have any other options. Of course, now I’m wondering if it was a mistake to skip out on the X-Men ‘97 Jean Grey walkin’ around costume…
