The Uncanny X-Men Series 3 (1993)

A lineup of Marvel action figures from Series 3, including Iceman on an ice sled, Nightcrawler, Sauron with attack wings, Storm with a lightning bolt, Mr. Sinister, Weapon X Wolverine with a high-tech training helmet, and Magneto showcasing super spark action.

Series 3 expanded the roster beyond what earlier waves offered by reintroducing fan-favorite characters with updated sculpts and color schemes. This series marked a transition point for the line: it balanced continuity (keeping popular figures like Wolverine) while experimenting with repaint choices and variant forms. It also reflected how the line was growing both in scale—by offering more variants—and in complexity, with variants and visual tweaks becoming more common.

This set is often confusing to collectors as every figure in this series is a remake of a previous characters using the original molds and only making minor color tweaks. The easiest way to identify an on card figure is to look at the back in the bottom right corner for Series 1 and 2 figures there should be an ad for 50% off Marvel Comics subscriptions.
