That Nightcrawler looks like he has his foot stuck in a really, really big wad of gum.

The WW Invisible Jet is funny.

The Wonder Woman Invisible Jet is awesome!

Don't forget to buy two, one you can open and one you can keep in the packaging!

I was about to say the same thing!

Just realized, except for the slightly disappointing Eaglemoss version, I have no representation of Kurt in my copious collection. Haven't really seen one that called out to me. (Wonder if I should take a swing at it myself?)

Why can't artists remember that the Bamf looks like a magnet with iron fillings at either end. Annoys (Or rather annoyed) the hell out of me.

JB - The Old Marvel Legends figure was a pretty good representation I thought.

Am I the only one that thinks this version of Nightcrawler
kinda looks like John Hurt?

It does? I thought that was what Lorna's power looked like!

I think they both did, although Kurt's was more like smoke than filings. The pattern definitly looked like a magnet though.

I always thought it was a mini-mushroom-cloud type thing, except I was nine and didn't know what a mushroom cloud was, so this is all backwards memory creation.

Thank you, Kevin! Just about every time I see the word "always" in reference to a statement of memory or opinion, I find myself thinking You just thought of that, didn't you? And you're retconning it into your memory to give it greater credibility!

It's why I prefer to say I have "long thought" rather than "always thought".

I Googled, and this is what I found:

I sincerely hope there is another that you were actually referring to!

(Kind of embarrassing when the toy doesn't even look like the illustration on the packaging!)

I'm a fan of Marvel Legends, but don't think ToyBiz or Hasbro has produced a good Nightcrawler yet. The 6-inch version has a Jay Leno-like chin.

I picked this statue up a while back...
