[Trivial Psychic]

Just wandered into this thread, and seeing some of these figures really takes me back. I remember driving my mom crazy as we drove from store to store trying to track down the original Rogue figure (with uppercut action), until we happened upon a Kay-Bee Toys (remember those?) employee who was nice enough to check in the back for me. I remember being shocked as he opened the case, to find only one Rogue among a sea of Wolverines, but was so happy to be the only one among my friends to have that ugly looking figure. It was my first real experience in dealing with chase figures, and it's one I'll never forget. I may have gotten rid of most of my old Toybiz X-figures, but I still have that Rogue. She's a constant reminder of why I still continue to collect to this day.

That said...is it any guess though as to who my favorite character was, not to mention my favorite Toy Biz X-Men figures, growing up? I used to have that crazy one with the extending body parts too, but sadly he ended up getting lost at some point. As much as I like the newer, more sinister looking versions, I really wish Hasbro would do the goofy looking "first appearance" Apocalypse. He was pretty awesome.


I mean...how cool was this guy? I remember my mind being blown when I got him...
