MARVEL SELECT CYCLOPS

Cyclops also known as Scott Summers is one of the original members of the X-men. He is the first member of the X-men and was personally chosen by Xavier himself. Later on he became the field leader of the team and eventually became their leader. Cyclops is a natural leader and is an excellent strategist. He is often opposed by fellow X-men Wolverine but one thing in common to them is that both fell in love with the same woman, Jean Grey. Most of the time Cyclops is portrayed as the hero type but in recent story arcs it seems that Scott lost his way and turned evil (read AVX and you’ll know what I mean).

Cyclops was created by the legendary comic book writer Stan Lee and drawn by artist Jack Kirby. He first appeared in “The X-men #1” way back 1963. Well now let’s check the figure of Cyclops by Marvel Select.

 

The X-men #1 published 1963.

 

Side box art of Marvel Select. Nice art work as always.

 

 

Cyclops came with an alternative unmasked head sculpt.

 

 

Cyclops came with a danger room diorama.

The Danger room diorama is similar to the one given to Gambit and Storm.

 

 

Wanted to pose the figure as if he is going to push his visor and shot out Optic Blast but it’s kinda hard to do due to limited articulation. But it’s ok he is still one of my favorite Cyclops figure.

 

 

Actor James Marsden played the role of Cyclops in the X-men trilogy movies.
