Bucky Barnes: Initially Bucky inadvertently discovered Captain America’s dual identity. Rather than behead Bucky with his shield to preserve his secret, Captain America decided to initiate Bucky as a sidekick. Bucky was subsequently killed---although it was later decided that he was in fact claimed by the Russians and transformed into the Winter Soldier.
First Appearance Captain America: Captain America was a result of the Super Soldier serum---honed into a Nazi-annihilating human weapon and initially equipped with a patriotic-themed, triangular-shaped shield composed of a bulletproof alloy. Later on, Captain America would receive an updated costume and his stronger circular shield.
Marvel Girl (Rachel Grey): The mini-skirt-clad Rachel Grey is imbued with ponderous telepathic and telekinetic powers allowing for a broad spectrum of reality-bending comic book-esque applications. She’s the offspring of alternate reality versions of Jean Grey and Cyclops.
Black Knight: This is a more contemporary version of the Black Knight, equipped with what appears to be the Shield of Night and the Sword of Light; both the shield and the sword are enchantment-charged and invested with various supernatural properties. The Black Knight has been affiliated with teams such as the Defenders and the Avengers.
Hydra Soldier: The HYDRA Soldier is a mere cog in the grim and terroristic machine known as the HYDRA organization. The HYDRA Soldier’s outlandish costume presents a serpentine theme. Answering to degenerate tyrants such as Baron Strucker, the HYDRA Soldier spends most of his time serving evil ends and coordinating with others to recapture the elusive Spider-Woman.
Colossus (X-Men: Last Stand Movie Version): Featuring a more austere black costume, Colossus has the ability to transform his entire body into living metal, which provides invulnerability against most attacks, physical or even supernatural, and drastically heightens his strength and endurance in the process.
Cyclops (Astonishing X-Men Costume): Cyclops has the ability to discharge concussive beams of force or heat from his eyes; he generates a constant mind field to keep the destructive force behind the eye blasts in check, and in this way he can block the beams by just shutting his eyes---although ultimately he requires his ruby visor.
Danger (Living embodiment of the X-Men's Danger Room): Danger is layered with sleekly curved scalloping metal plates, laced with exposed circuitry, and crowned by Medusean cable locks. Danger is the grim zenith of an elevating sentience on the part of the Danger Room---a final manifestation taking the semblance of a female super-robot.
Special Build-A-Figure: The Brood Queen: A nasty snot-covered insectoid monstrosity; the Brood Queen is somewhat larger than a Brood warrior and is capable passing along Brood embryos. Build the Brood Queen and you can have her preside over the Brood warrior from the Marvel Select Brood & Skrull 2-pack.
Actual pictures will be coming soon....
