I know some people love this look... but I really don't care for it. I gave it a "Meh"

I had to go with "Dislike". This Costume just never did it for me. Too busy.

Maybe I'm just looking at this through my 90s-bias goggles, but this is by far my favorite Cyke costume.

I know many consider it the definitive Cyclops suit, I prefer this one:

Even so, I think this 90's one is okay. I'm giving it a like.

Under all the useless straps is a decent costume.

It's a bit too strappy, but I'll always have an affection for this outfit probably because of the time frame and media I associate it with (darn those 90's nostalga goggles).

Sadly, one of my favorite Cyclops outfits also seems to be one of the most short-lived. I like its simplicity and having the x end at the hips instead of lower is a good choice.

Also, while not comic book canon, the X-Men Evolution version  is pretty cool.

Had to go with love. Just so many fond memories of this costume, comics, cartoon, Marvel vs Capcom etc. Still is first thing that comes to mind when i think of Cyclops.

I'm definitely in the Like category. This is a candidate for my favourite Cyke costume. I'd have to really review them to find my favourite.

The only thing I dislike is how the chest straps are sometimes drawn. Sometimes they look too clunky or have too many pouches, or just look awkward. Otherwise this is a sharp look that I've always found made Scott look like a pro, but with just enough style to show how cool he is.
