Prof X is one of my most glaring omissions in my collection in terms of a character that's been released in an ideal look, that I don't have, I was stupid to pass on him when he dropped, and the chances have been slim and too expensive since my mistake, because I only saw him once in stores. How can you have the X-Men without Xavier...it's rough. I was just such a weirdo and didn't buy him until I realized it was way too late.

and I had no interest in a movie fig or that wack HOX spandex suit walking version of him figure.

I hear ya. I'd be the exact same way if I had missed on him too.

Man, you definitely want that Prof X badly if you're willing to look past the awful cel shading

I have a feeling, that the X-Men 97 figs will be free of Cel Shading, but I might end up being wrong, I sure hope not, but even if they did a Cel Shaded Professor X, I'd look past the Shading and still get it.

I really hope they don't come with Sweat stains

Let's just hope Hasbro doesn't do the awful cel shading since it technically would be part of the X-Men TAS

Yeah I could see that now, they could pretty easily just re-paint that Pym, and make it the jumpsuit Xavier, as much as I'd prefer him in his Suit like they did the last release at this point I want Xavier bad enough I'd get that one, let's hope that's in the cards.

I can definitely see Xavier being released again. Maybe with the new Hank Pym body from the upcoming West Coast Avengers box set.

See that bums me out, I didn't know they had a leaked list of the characters in this rumoured wave, but I guess I glazed over that, it's actually nice to see that a new Bishop and Magneto might be coming for everyone who missed Bishop the first time (I know a lot did) and Magneto was locked in a 3 pack so I know people were hoping for a single release at some point, but for me if there isn't a new Xavier I'm probably going to skip all of this wave, I'm really only pining over a new Xavier personally, so I guess if that leaked list is true, I hope Xavier is coming maybe as a fan channel, I just need Prof X dammnit.

The rumoured listing for the wave was Bishop, Gambit, Magneto, Rogue, Storm, and Wolverine. Gambit and Rogue feel like weird inclusions, since they got those Target rereleases already, unless theyre cel-shaded, and helping to fill in that collection for people. A non cel-shaded version of the VHS Cyclops seems like it wouldve been a slam-dunk. I wouldnt mind a version of Jim Lee Rogue on a better body, I guess. On the other hand, Storm and Wolverine seem like weird inclusions if they are cel-shaded. Either way, Bishop and Magneto feel like good calls, and Id put even odds on Magneto being in the classic red and purple versus the 80s M costume. Xavier doesnt seem to be in the cards (especially since I dont think hes even in the show, at least not initially), unless maybe theres a tie-in exclusive.
