Rogue Sideshow Exclusive Edition

If you love X-Men, particularly the comics more so than the movies, then you already know Rogue is a very cool character from Marvel. In the movies she was played down as a child, but in the comics she’s bad-ass. She also has a hot husky voice too! Rogue is hot in all respects which is why die hard X-Men fans will no doubt be very interested in this replica statue based off art by critically acclaimed comic book artist Adam Hughes.

Sideshow Collectibles is offering fans a preview of their next Marvel Maquette, the beautiful X-heroine, Rogue. The Rogue Comiquette is cast in high quality polystone, direct from concepts and designs by superstar comic book artist Adam Hughes whose critically acclaimed illustration meets pin-up style has made him one of the industry's most sought-after artists and a perennial fan favorite. Hand painted and hand finished to exacting standards, the X-Men's southern belle is ready for the gloves to come off. But beware, for even the slightest touch from her bare skin will render you unconscious and powerless. Whether from her powerhouse punch or her delicate kiss, there is no doubt about it... Rogue is a real knockout.

The statue comes in the box in six pieces: the base with wall segment, the Rogue figure, Rogue’s right hand and glove, and three block pieces. It all comes together fairly easily, except for the hand and glove. You should be able to slide the right hand into the right wrist via a peg and hole assembly, and the fingertip of the glove should fit between the fingers of the opposite hand. There’s a common problem with this statue that cropped up with mine as well that has the right hand not fitting exactly correctly into the peg, causing the glove not to go between the fingers in just the right position.

A little things about Rogue

Rogue's mutant abilities are both fantastic and tragic. Able to temporarily absorb the memories and powers of others, she is one of the most powerful mutants of all. Due to the nature of her power, however, she is unable to allow her skin to make casual contact with anyone else, as she learned during her very first kiss. A young runaway from Mississippi, Rogue was taken in by Mystique and Destiny who raised her to be a part of their criminal exploits and a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. On her first mission, Rogue used her mutant ability on the heroine Ms. Marvel, but unable to fully control her powers, Rogue absorbed Ms. Marvel's memories and powers permanently. Although she gained super-strength, near invulnerability and flight from the encounter, she also became distraught over her lack of control. Rogue quickly realized she was a danger to others and sought the help of the X-Men who took her in and made her a member of their team.

Don’t waste time though, it won’t be available forever. This particular Rogue Comiquette Polystone Statue is actually being offered as a second-chance. If you’re into Rogue, check out more images of her replica statue at Sideshow Collectibles now.
