Gold Team

Bishop (XSE costume) - I repainted him from the X-Men Missile Flyer series.  The Bishop figure that Toybiz made in this costume seemed a bit too short to me.  His emblems were scanned from the Ultimate X-Men book, and printed out from an inkjet printer.  The shotgun holster is one of Dark Phoenix's boots with the strap coming from Generation X White Queen's staff.  Shotgun from a Nuclear Spawn figure.  His belt pouches, scarf and shoulder cuffs are made with milliput.  Hair was added later with Hercules Centaur hair and kneadatite.    

Colossus  - from the New X-Men giftset, nicely sculpted, very imposing

Jean Grey - The base figure, an X-Men Classics Jean Grey was pretty good, though it was simply a repaint of the Battle Blasters Age of Apocalypse Jean Grey and therefore needed a longer hairstyle.  I added sculpey hair (the only time i've used it in my customs - i fear putting my customs in the over!),  milliput shoulder and thigh armor.   Toybiz should have released the version from the unproduced Flying Fighters line, shown  here.  

Archangel - Battle Brigade Archangel with the head from 1st Toybiz Archangel and extra wings.  He's in a flying pose courtesy of a Marvel Legends flying base.  I also made an Archangel with feather wings

Storm - repainted Water Wars Storm, used a cape from her New X-Men boxset figure.  I prefer the black costume to her white (or silver?) look

Iceman - from the Mutant Armor series, i didn't really like the ice armor so i shaved most of it off.  Base was made from the Marvel Legends Iceman base
