Toyfare Exclusive Action Figure Morph from the Age of Apocalypse
Kevin Sydney is a fictional character that has been a member of the X-Men in comic book stories published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Roy Thomas and artist Werner Roth, the character first appeared in X-Men #35 (August 1967).Kevin Sydney first appeared as the Changeling. The Changeling is a mutant shapeshifter. He was a short-lived X-Men adversary who, off-panel, joined Professor X's efforts and died shortly after. The Changeling was the first member of the X-Men to die in action.The character was revived under the name Morph in the 1990s.In the Age of Apocalypse (AoA), Morph was, like his "regular Marvel Universe" counterpart Changeling, an early recruit of the X-Men. Changeling was killed shortly after joining the X-Men while assuming the guise of Professor X. In the AoA reality, Kevin Sydney did not die while impersonating Professor X, because in the Age of Apocalypse Xavier died before the X-Men were ever founded. The AoA Morph's personality and costume are largely the same as that of the Exiles version, based upon the latter's initial appearance.In the AoA timeline, Morph often agitated his teammates with his off-the-wall sense of humour and inappropriate timing; he describes himself as wanting to die with a smile on his face when his time comes. Despite his happy-go-lucky attitude, Morph has displayed signs of a softer, more empathetic side several times. For example, he morphed into Sabretooth in an effort to comfort Blink while she doubted her abilities, and he later gave Rogue the strength to endure against the horseman Holocaust by acting as her son. Shortly after the defeat of Apocalypse, he accompanied fellow X-Men Iceman, Wildchild and Exodus on an unspecified mission, during which they disappeared. Their fate has yet to be revealed, except for Wildchild, who has since joined a new team of Exiles.
