Somehow is seems wrong to put Jubilee in a uniform. As the token spunky young upstart of the 1990's X-Men, she always marched to the beat of her own drum. She got into trouble, was the catalyst for many team adventures, and always wore her own unique outfits. Usually colorful, haphazard, and fun. We've seen her in a few official uniforms in the years since, but in 1991's Uncanny X-Men #275 we first saw her conform to a group aesthetic in this modern take of the classic X-Men uniform. But surprisingly Jubilee seemed to love this phase and almost accepted it as a badge of honor, like she was suddenly a full-fledged member of the team instead of a nuisance tag-along. Of course, she pretty much immediately went back to her signature yellow raincoat, but this uniform was still a cool blip that still resonates enough to inspire action figures 32 years later. I'm assuming the red-jumpsuit Generation X version is next (her only other iconic uniform). Perhaps an SDCC reveal? Let's check out Jubilee below!
Jubilee comes with a standard head and a bubble-blowing head, two sets of hands, two power effects, and a translucent visor.
A real unfortunate thing about short-haired Marvel Legends females is that
they typically have a pretty unsightly exposed joint at the back of their necks.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
And here are all the recent Legends Jubilee figures. From Left to Right:
And here is Jubilee with her box-mates, Storm and Forge.
Cheers!
