And whohoo! I got Shatterstar from Target this morning. I saw someone walking away with a ML fig, but couldn't tell which one except it had an X on the top... probably Logan. But when I got there Sunfire and Shatterstar was still on the pegs... heck yeah. Can't believe people are leaving behind Shatterstar... does nobody remember X-force #1? My friend bought 13 copies of that issue when it came out. LOL.

I agree with En Sabah. The Nova Prime suit is supposed to be blue (in keeping with the traditional Nova look, excluding the brown suit) but it was often heavily shaded. Nova Prime is sort of an updated and armored extension of the standard suit. The Legends figure is a little lighter than most depictions of the Nova Prime suit as it is usually a darker steel blue but it is still pretty close. That also ties into why Sam's suit and helmet are black as his father was a Black Nova instead of a regular blue suit, yellow helmet like Rich. However, half the time his suit ends up more bluish than black. It seems to be up to colorist's decision....
