Did a quick swap of Cyke's stubby lower arms with some Deadpool lowers (gotta love that $5.99 sale at Target a while back.) Makes all the difference. I can even overlook his lack of ankles now.

Mine stands just fine on his own - even with the eye-beam inserted. Nova's made out of a Johnny Storm for a size comparison:

Cyke's got pretty much the best superhero torso I've seen yet - I plan on getting a few and using the torso for customs (The Flash comes to mind). The mid-torso joint is nearly invisible and really well sculpted.

Still haven't been successful elongating Iceman, though -- his problem is his lower torso - it's WAY tiny. If I can find a replacement (Deadpool's is a little too big), I can fix Bobby's height issue and have him wearing a surfer-style "onesie" so he can still have clear arms & legs.

That Cyclops looks great Chief!

I must've gotten a defect Cyclops figure, but on the plus side, if his ankles weren't actually molded in the funky position, then a little boiling water should help return them to "normal" :-D

Cyke, Frosty, & new Wolverine are all up for preorder on HTS, easier IMO than tracking them down. I do believe I'll be giving my Cyke Wolverine's Muramasa Blade.

Found all of these at my TRU tonight on the way home. They were on special - 2 for 10.99 - and the pegs were full. I picked up the only Iceman and one of two Cykes (the other had lousy paint) plus an extra lumberjack wolvie for customs and a comic Deadpool for trade fodder.

Also found a second BnB Sarge.

It was a good night.
