Quicksilver's Age of Apocalypse design is my favorite look of his. I normally don't care for the quasi-military look that's so prevalent in costume design nowadays but for Pietro it worked since it made him look powerful and authoritative while having good color balance.
Not dissapointed in the list but I expected Iceman from his original snowman form to his sleek transparent ice form. I completely forgot about brown Wolverine, and for sure earned the top spot.
My first ever "crush, attraction, puppy love or whatever you wanna call it" happened immediately upon my first glace at "Punk Rock Storm". My little mind was just blown away lol. I also totally dug the transformation of Angel to Archangel! When I first saw it as a kid I thought it was just the coolest thing ever.

@@davidbarrentine9352 I'm in agreement with you about Rogue. She definitely made an impression but what really sealed the deal for me in regards to Rogue was the animated series. Whoever they got to do the voiceover was spot-on 👍

Eww storm with Mohawk is the worst
Jim Lee's Cyclops remains the most iconic look for the character & possibly the best looking X-man. and that's saying a lot because _all_ of Lee's redesigns were iconic & still hold up as the best today. what Marvel has done to Cyclops since (and the X-Men in general), should be treated by the US gov't as a war crime, but i digress...

It upsets me so much that the only Cyclops story I really liked in the last decade was in _Spider-Man Renew Your Vows_ where it showed how things would have turned out if Scott lost faith in Xavier. Jean leaves him for Logan and he's not the team leader anymore but he doesn't come off as a loser. If anything, Scott feels like the most sensible member of the team that really should be listen to but nobody does because they're drawn into Xavier's sheer charisma.
I agree, Havok's toned down head apparatus redesign (or outright absence of it altogether in the case of X-Factor) did wonders for the aesthetics of his costume appearances. He's one of, not only my all time favorite X-Men characters but one of my all time favorite Marvel characters as well, but in my opinion his original design(s) were ungodly stupid for how powerful he is genuinely is. I understand they had their purpose, assisting in properly directing and circulating the flow of his powers, but their exaggerated initial size really didn't do him any favors. And while I certainly didn't dislike Magneto's original design, his more modernized contemporary redesign is sick.
Punk Storm is the goat of alternate/redesign costumes.

I really like the X-visor Cyclops
Of all the X-MEN characters. I always love Magneto’s costume especially the classic one but when they redesign his costume and turn it all white,really fits his character. Plus Wolverine’s costume to me is always iconic to me no matter what costume he wore over the years if I pick one I’ll pick the brown and orange one.
AWESOME list. The 90s was the most iconic design for X-Men thanks to Jim Lee and Magneto ditching his red and purple garb for the ALL white was INSANE 😍😍. And the older I got the more I appreciated the hashbrown mustard look of wolverine 😂😂, I JUST can't wait to see X-Men 97 and them in the MCU
I've always been a fan of the Lee Cyclops outfit. Unlike some of the others with the mentioned 90s pouch-bling (Cable comes to mind), Scott's was not over the top, and I appreciated the asymmetric straps leading to the X roundel. Never been a big Wolverine fan, but the earth tones definitely suit him better than the yellow/blue.
Magneto's White Suit that debuted during the House/Powers of X arc was legitimately his best costume hes ever had.
Yeah nobody liked kitty cat Beast. Easily one of the worst times in the characters history

I actually much prefer that look, guess i'm one of the few
i will watch Dan's videos just in hopes he has to say the name "Lobo". He turns it into "Loaaaaaahh-boaaaaah" and it's too funny.
Angels Red and White costume is dope, The archangel suit is still cool too tho
I have confused Havok with black bolt several times😂
Warren Worthington the 3rd Archangel is the most underrated X-Men & his powerset is actually top notch for a street-level hero
well done ! got me good with that cyclops thumbnail ....ahahahahah 90 s animated cyclops for the win
I disagree with you on Brown Costume Wolverine. It's a good lack, but for me, the Yellow Garbs will always be number one for me.
Fun List 👏💪🎉
I liked the brown Logan fit and the cyclops pouches costume also
#9: He was the youngest until Kitty join. #4: That Dark Phoenix wasn't the real Jean. #3: It was the team space adventure against the Brood (and being impregnated with a Brood embryo) that caused her to lose contact with nature which triggered the new look.
I could see Timothy Shalamet being a great Angel for the MCU
Awesome
Cyclops 2 best costumes are his Jim Lee 90s look and his Phoenix force costume which my favorite

Archangel needs to bond with a Symbiote. It'd be coo AF & Archangel is one of the few characters that hasn't had a Symbiote
Kitty didn't change from Shadowcat to Sprite - she was Sprite earlier!

Wolvie's brown n yellow is said to be a spec ops scheme where he mostly teamed with Nightcrawler, rather that when he was on Blue team run by Storm.
I wish the media focused on Archangel more h's a badass character.
I like the the whit on magz
Red Queen Kitty Pryde is my new fav. She is a drunken pirate like Jack Sparrow, but without the Amber Heard issues.

I prefer Wolverine's blue and yellow costume. The 90's Xmen cartoon introduced me to the franchise, and the blue and yellow was iconic. When I started seeing him in the yellow and brown, all I could ask was "who approved of this hideous costume?"

I only enjoy the brown costume when he’s on solo adventures it doesn’t fit him as an X-Man The best redesign for Wolverine is the Astonishing X-Men costume it’s a great modernisation that has more texture and less yellow
Banshee!
Y'all remember magz toy with the magnet in it??
Man the 80s and 90s were the good stuff.
What about Rogue? Her original costume was very bland until years later she was given a more badass look.

Dear Dan from WhatCulture, I say this with love and encouragement: your narration speed was much too slow for my taste. My guess is you're just trying to be clear, but I think people will be able to keep up if you sped up your tempo. Great video otherwise!
Rogue from X-Men TAS was my 1st love That A$$
Feline Beast was utter garbage… hated that redesign
Havoks older 😭
So the Phoenix Force didn't corrupt Jean. Mastermind and the Hellfire Club corrupted Jean, i.e., corrupting the PF.

10. Definitely agree 9. I prefer when he has a top but without the stretched shoulders 8. Agree 7. I prefer classic blue gorilla-Beast. 6. Black and silver Archangel from the 2010s X-Force is better, imo 5. The better version is when they inverted the colors 4. Definitely agreed 3. Her classic is better. I also like the white outfit she had in Warren Ellis’ run on Astonishing X-Men, where she looked more regal and Goddess-like. 2. Yep 1. And here I am thinking I’m the only person who preferred brown and orange Wolverine over yellow and blue. You’re also missing, imo, Jim Lee’s Rogue and Japanese Psylocke and early-2000s Cable, like the one they used in Marvel vs Capcom 2, where they reduced the Rob Liefeld-ness, with less armor, fewer guns and a slimmer frame.
I can tolerate anything not drawn by Rob Liefield.
New cyclops looks so dumb.

Cyclops, overall, needs to stop being defined by his inability to control his optic blasts. That extends to his costumes, where the signature trait is a big visor because he can't control his optic blasts. I get that, 60 years ago, it was an intriguing twist that a hero couldn't control his powers; but in the long run, it's stunted what they've done with Cyclops as a character. If we were to give it the Harry Plinkett treatment and contrast with Rogue, it might go like: Rogue: has the ability to temporarily steal another person's memories, powers, and personality. Covers almost all of her skin surface to keep her powers under control. Lighthearted, flirty, loves playing the Southern belle; also kind of lonely. Has a bad girl history and indeed is Mystique's stepdaughter. Loves a good brawl, and is a bit of a sass-mouth, playfully or otherwise. Cyclops: shoots energy blasts from his eyes. Wears a special visor to control his powers. He's leaderly. He's a leader. He leads. He ... um ... leading is important to him. He's serious like a leader. See how there's so much more to say about Rogue? I didn't even get into interesting footnotes in her past like how she absorbed Carol Danvers' powers, because even without that, she's a much more interesting character than Cyclops.

Punk Storm absolutely sucked, Jim Lee era Storm was absolute perfection
Feline beast is hands down the worst look for the character. Original blue beast will always be the best.
Ugh Punk Storm was a downgrade.
Every redesign after xmen 300 is kinda lame.
Wolverine‘s brown costume is brown because it’s $#!+
Feline Beast was the WORST look
most of these redesigns are pretty awful and the originals looks better. only arcangel looks better
