Between the Mary Jane statuette and that Heroes for Hire cover, it seems like Gripe About Marvel Week. Well, I’m about to add to that, so brace yourselves: Kenny at the Forbidden Planet International blog spotlights the Marvel Milestones: X-Babies Unleashed statues, based on those adorable tots created by Chris Claremont and Art Adams.
The thing is, Adams’ X-Babies were cute as buttons. These limited-edition statues — due out in October — are terrifying. They look as if they’d eat babies. Don’t gaze into their demonic eyes. Don’t do it!
They’ll steal your soul.

These things look like Chucky’s even more evil cousin’s.

Wow. Somebody’s found a way to make the X-Babies *worse*.

Sometimes you walk across the uncanny valley, and sometimes you take a great, flying leap…

Did the sculptor get confused and think it was supposed to be an X-babies/Marvel Zombies crossover or something?

They look less like the X-babies and more like X-Teens with overgrown heads and too much eye shadow
