It'd be sick if they actually made removable shades that when taken off his eyes lit up and burned your house down until you put the shades back on, lol, buta removeable visor and optical beam should be made! and red led eyes would be a nice touch.

Hmm...it's a little weird that the first we hear of it is from Wikipedia.

Such a trust worthy source and all.

[Autobot_Goldbug]

Don't pay any attention to that Wiki page. There is a troll that keeps adding fake stuff.

[trebleshot]

What a tool. Doesn't he have anything better to do?

[Shawn Woodbeck]

No kidding

[Redlantern161]

You guys mean the X Men Forever version? Yeah that's BS but it would be a badass custom but idk if anybody reads that series

Hey All,
While I understand everyone's concern about trolls and B.S. posts on Wiki, I am the person that posted the variant information about Cyclops. I bought him at my local Raleigh Target (off Glenwood and Lynn road by Raleigh Grand) on May 9 and looked at the packaging to make sure that someone didn't buy a regular figure and then put the "variant" in. I didn't see any foul play so I took a picture and texted it to a friend. We both have been looking online to see if this was a real deal or not. I have included the image below.

I will continue to monitor to see if this is for real, but I am the one who added the post to wiki and I hope he is real.

FYI, I am not trying to sell or trade the figure, he is already in my comic book room, I just want to know if I need to be on the look out for my friend.

also, it isn't the X-Men Forever version. It looks to be the "same" version as in the Dark Phoenix two pack, which made me think someone bought the Jim Lee costume and resealed the two pack figure in the package instead.

last post on this, but I added the picture I took at Target to the attachments of this post.

Link doesn't work

You can either clip the paper clip icon and attach an image, but it can't be larger than something like 2mb. Easiest way is to host your picture and use the url here by clicking the insert image icon that looks like a mountain.

Was it the only one? To me, it looks like warehouse messed up and a wrong cyclops snuck into new packaging. So to me, that is much better and cooler than a variant =3

[Tarquinius]

Thank you Smcinern for clearing all this up! Always great to hear from the original source....you know how rumors spread in this fandom.

Hope you stick around!

[smcinern]

It has been the only one I have seen. I only found the Jim Lee version this morning at the Walmart by Triangle Town Center, along with Hopeless Cable and Apocolypse, so I am now done until the next wave comes out (unless I find a Hopefilled Cable)(and need non variant Winter Solder, which I may buy online).
Troy has been looking for the "variant" Cyclops but hasn't found one either. He also suggested that maybe it was wrong packaging, but I don't know about that.

Nope. I declare this a repack. Without a doubt. I'm not accusing you of doing it, though. You're just the victim.

[quinten182]

100% agree with psoter above me.
That looks identical to the 2-pack Cyclops to me..

P.S. Non-variant Winter Soldier from MU? That guy is everywhere here. Seen 4 today in one store. :x

What one is the non variant? Long Hair?

[quinten182]

No, long hair IS the variant

[quinten182]

But there is no variant in the captain america series. The one in that series has long hair, but not to be confused with the MU short hair/long hair regular/variant issue. :P

[smcinern]

Well, if it's a repack, it's a pretty dang good job as I could not see any tears and the tape at the bottom of the back looks to be untouched.

I am not a newbie by any means, and the figure was located towards the back of the rack, not one that an employee would place up front as a return, but then again, as I have already stated, I am not trying to resell, or trade or anything and a small group of people (well, not anymore) even knew I had it.

Quinten182, yeah, nonvariant WS from MU..... I know they are out there but the 5 targets near my house and 3 walmarts don't have them. Forgot I didn't have the non variant and haven't given up on finding "him" but may just be easier to buy online then spend the $ on gas going to these stores 5 times a week....

[Saint Phe]

I have seen some insanely good repacks that make you wonder why so much effort was put into it. Still a repack.
