X-MEN LEGENDS BOX SET: Gifted
The Astonishing X-Men, straight from the pages of the hit comic book by Joss Whedon and John Cassaday, come to life, Legends style! These 6" scale action figures feature the superposeability that the Marvel Legends line is known for, plus the cool comfort of casual Fridays. A reprint of Astonishing X-Men #3 rounds out the collection.

Includes Scott Summers, Emma Frost, Hank McCoy, Kitty Pryde, and Logan.*

Scott Summers: 28 points of articulation

Scott Summers, the mutant also known as Cyclops, has powers that emanate from his eyes. Although many think they are laser blasts, they are actually blasts of pure force, capable of killing a human being and even blasting through walls, steel, and more.

His energy comes from the sun. He is constantly soaking in solar energy and converting it into the energy that comes out of his eyes.

Scott uses a pair of ruby quartz sunglasses to prevent the force blasts from randomly shooting out as he lost the ability to control his optic blasts in a plane crash long ago. In combat, Cyclops uses a visor to control his blasts. He must push a button on the left or right sides to rotate the ruby quartz plates and allow the energy to come out.

Emma Frost: 27 points of articulation

Emma Frost, also known as the White Queen, is a mutant who possesses various telepathic talents. Emma can read minds and project her thoughts into the minds of others, project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness, and can also induce mental pain merely by touching the brow of her victim. Emma can telepathically "sedate" her victims so that, if already rendered unconscious, they remain so for as long as she continues to "sedate" them. It is unknown how effective her "sedating" ability is on victims who are awake.

Furthermore, as a consequence of continued mutation, Emma can now transform her skin and hair into a diamond-hard form at will. In this form, Emma is nigh indestructible except for one small flaw that, if exploited, can cause her to shatter. Whilst in her diamond form, Emma's telepathic abilities are suppressed.

Hank McCoy: 39 points of articulation

Hank McCoy, also known as the Beast, possesses superhuman strength, agility, endurance, and speed, despite his bulk. He possesses the agility of a great ape and the acrobatic prowess of an accomplished circus aerialist.

Hank has enhanced senses, as well as a slight healing factor that allows him to regenerate minor wounds and recover quickly from minor ailments such as colds. He also possesses cat-like night vision as well as razor-sharp claws on his hands and feet.

Hank is extremely intelligent, and is considered to have an intellect that rivals many of the elite thinkers in the Marvel universe. He has a doctorate from the Xavier Institute and is well versed in the areas of genetics and biochemistry.

Kitty Pryde: 30 points of articulation

Kitty Pryde, also known as Shadowcat, is a mutant with the ability to �phase� through solid matter by shifting her atoms through the spaces between the atoms of the object through which she is moving. Kitty can phase her clothing along with herself, and through practice has learned to phase other objects and people without harm to them. For all intents and purposes, Kitty is intangible whilst phasing, however she is still vulnerable to psionic or mystical attacks. Certain forms of energy can also disrupt her phased state.

When Kitty phases through an object with an electrical system, the process disrupts the system's workings. She can phase part or all of her body through another living being without harm to herself, though the other being can be rendered unconscious as a result.

Logan: 34 points of articulation

Logan, also known as Wolverine, has many animal-like powers attributed to his mutant gene. His senses are extremely heightened, making him able to track by smell alone and detect nearby enemies. He also has adamantium-laced claws that can pop out through the skin of his knuckles and are razor sharp weapons.

Logan's mutant healing factor allows him to be the best at what he does. Cuts, bullet wounds, broken bones and much more can be healed in a matter of minutes, if not seconds. A side effect of this healing factor is that drugs have little affect on him (including alcohol) and that he has an unnaturally long lifespan.

When in times of great stress and anger, Logan can revert to a more animalistic stage and can go into a �berserker rage,� not caring if he lives or dies, but unrelenting in his attacks.

Recipe: Weapon X, Logan, Astonishing Wolverine
