Well which X-Factor are you talking about? We've already got 4 of the 5 originals, plus Wolfsbane and Quicksilver. Theres posts about Angel and Havok on the other board, leaving Strong Guy, Polaris, Multiple Man, Random and Forge...although i feel like I'm forgetting someone.
Strong Guy kicks ###, he'd have to have super strength the first few clicks, then Steel Energy to represent his kinetic energy absorbtion. Otherwise, some invulnerability and toughness would round him out.
Jamie Madrox would just have to be a common guy, like a thug, so you could play like 10 of them at once, and they could all attack with one action. If they just made a real one he'd just have hypersonic speed to represent having a lot of clones beating on you, but thats all I can figure.
Polaris would be what magneto is in IC since Magneto is not powerful enough, but he is a pretty good Polaris rep.
Forge would be sweet. Perlex and/or Outwit are obvious ones. I'd say Incapacitate and Energy sheild deflection due to some invention or other. Hell hes like Taskmaster, he could invent something that would give him any power in the game.
I'm not sure if Random should have Plasticity or not, probably just Shape change. Toughness definently with Regeneration at the end.
Val Cooper would be a fun little Sheild piece
Rusty and Skids would be cute little minor characters as well, Rusty being a weeker pyro, and Skids with defend.

X-Factor fan present and accounted for!!!
So far I've completed mods of Strong Guy, Quicksilver, Multiple Man, and Forge. Working on Random, Havok, and Val Cooper. I'm waiting to see what new sculpts come with X-Plosion, so far a repainted Rogue is all I can think of for making Polaris. I've made dials for all of them, I'll post stats and pics sometime, probably when they're all finished (and I can get a hold of a digital camera!).

The Bulk and Glowworm would be cool. But then I am a glutton for punishment.

I know at one point the original Xmen were members. And also Mystique and Sabretooth with Wildchild were grudgingly members.

I liked the Peter David run. The only time I ever regularly picked up an X-Book (though I am a fan of the old Byrne/Cockrum era stuff).

The original X-Factor was the original 5 X-men, Cyclops, Jean, Iceman, BEast and Angel. Later on Rusty and Skids started tagging along with them. Then they rejoined up with the X-Men and the government assigned Val Cooper with creating a mutant team to replace freedom force. Dubbed X-Factor she got Havok, Wolfsbane, Quicksilver, Madrox and Polaris. Random was a half villain that joined the team for a while. Then they brought in Forge to help with the team, Havok left and seemingly became leader of new brotherhood. Forge got Sabretooth and Mystique out of jail to be on the team and invented these controller things that kept them from running away or turning on their teamates. Some people left at this point but I can;t really remember who except I know Wolfsbane went to Excalibur around then. Then in the final issues it was revealed Havok was a plant to catch the Dark Beast, and in the final battle he was seemingly killed. X-Factor was then disbanded.

I would love to see them do a Beast where the rookie was Hank McCoy, Experienced was the dumb Beast and the Vet was the blue furry beast. Similar to how they did Invisible Girl/Woman.
Obviously, when the original Xmen reformed into Xfactor, it was cool. Then someone decided to s#### them and bring in the second, third, and fourth stringers to capitalize on the mutant mania of the time. Havok, Polaris were occaisional members of the Xmen, and Madrox was an ally. Wolfsbane was a student and Strongguy was a nuisance. Quicksilver, a longtime Avenger-turned-villian by Maximus, joined to salvage the character. They were never that interesting, even when Mystique and Sabretooth were brought in. Forge was a good character/supporting castmate that was finally used right. He isn't a front player, he is a weaponsmith, and should be kept as one (meaning no clix).
All of that being said, I would like a Havok and a Polaris. I think Multiple Man would be too hard to make with the current powers and rules, and I hate Strongguy.

Any reason you felt it necessary to retype what I wrote?

I think it might have something to do with the fact that you posted 5 times.
Havoc and Lorna Dane would be great. Jamie Madrox is very doable, simply as a thug on the X-xen team.

5 times? Ten times. Surprised they weren't deleted yet.
I didn't mean to post 10 times. It kept giving me the reload page, and I couldn't tell if it posted. It must be the transition.

I love the Peter David X Factor. Once Mystique and Sabertooth came in I left. I've already made Havok and Polaris (Cyke and Jean Bases respecitvely...Polaris having leadership bothers me...) Strong guy was cool, he'd be kinda like Hulk, he'd have to beef up. Multiple man would be cool, perhaps flurry, toughness/invulnerability at the end of his dial to represent the amount of versions he has. Maybe Super senses to represent somone attacking his multiples instead of him. Clearly my fav X Man is Havok, an he should have had a clix in Xplosion, but sadly Meltdown apparently got it....

The chalker in the mech suit that at first didn't fit then when it did, got rained on and electrocuted him? Man, thats some of the best stuff in comics ever

Jesus Christ I haven't read an X-Factor comic in almost fiveteen years. God I hope Angle's in the next set.

Oh, so you can say "Jesus Christ!" but you can't say "That tall building is also called a skys####er."???
Maybe the moderators should s####e together some money so that the current swear filter can be s####ped.
The only good X-Factor is the original five. As soon as Cameron Hodge turned into somekind of Rube-Goldberg-type-mechanical-monster-villain, the whole thing turned to c*r*a*p*...
Soon as I get a complete set of Cyke, Jean, Hank (non blue), Iceman, and Warren I'm painting them in those hideous two tone X-costumes.
