Robert's Two Cents

This is from one of my favorite periods of X-Men history. X-Factor was a great title for a while. This costume was best drawn by Walt Simonson.

Points in Favor

• The colors are great. I'm a little iffy on the yellow, but I'm holding out hope it turns out better on the actual pieces.
  
• The hair. It's great!
  
• It's Mark Newman and Randy Bowen! That's a match made in heaven.
  

Points Against

• The base is blah! I've bought worse though.
• The energy signature should probably have more color.
• I'd like the face to be just a little softer, but it's not keeping me from purchasing this one.
  
  

Recommendation: HOT BUY! I love it! She looks great. I'm looking forward to the eventual obvious Cyclops piece to go with it. And if I didn't already have a Beast, I'd really be looking forward to the Beast.

Silver Green Lantern Ring

Just found this on SuperHeroStuff.com.

It's a silver Green Lantern Ring (affiliate link).

This is a pretty cool item for the stocking of that Green Lantern fan in your family. Personally I've wanted a Green Lantern ring for years.

SuperHeroStuff.com has a 12% off deal running on Green Lantern merchandise through tomorrow, if you follow them on Twitter or their Facebook page you can find the code. The other cool option is they have a $5 off discount code if you follow them on Facebook. That would almost cover the basic USPS shipping cost.
