Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Bits o' Legionnaire Business Gold and Platinum Discussion Thread

Yes, it's that time again...time to nominate who you'd like to see win a Legionverse's Next Top Pinup Model title!

This competition is open to ANY character in the Legionverse, male or female, who has fair hair. That could mean golden blonde, platinum, light brown, strawberry, pink, baby blue, etc.

Actual Legionnaires may be nominated this time, but don't forget the obscure characters, they're pretty fun to put in the spotlight.

When all the nominations are tallied, there will be a vote to choose the top five.

Questions....

1. Which fair haired character from Legion stories would you like to see compete? Remember, males and females are both allowed, Legionnaires or non Legionnaires are allowed. List your top five (ish).

2. Who's been your favorite judge in past Pinup Model competitions? Which three would you like to judge this one? Is there someone else you'd like to see be a judge?

Former judges:
Saturn Girl
Marte Allon
Emerald Empress
Ambassador Jeryl
Gigi Cusimano
Princess Elwinda

3. Are there any exotic locations from Legion stories that would be a nice setting for a fair haired Legion character pin up? Can you give an issue number for reference?

4. Dream Girl and Light Lass have been hosts in the past. Would you like either of them to host again? Remember, if they host, they can't be in the competition. Is there someone else who you'd like to see be host?

5. What is your favorite color? The top choice will be used in a challenge.

6. Anything else?

I'll go first...

1. Contestants: Andromeda, Supergirl, Brainiac 5, Nemesis Kid and Queen Azura

2. It'd be fun to have some dark haired girls be all witchy to the fair ones. So, I'll choose Phantom Girl, Shadow Lass and Dawnstar to be judges.

3. I need to think about this one...(that's why I'm asking for help...)

4. I choose Yera Allon to be host, and I want her to do lots of interesting stuff with her powers, but remain recognizable.

5. I like all colors evenly, so I need nominations for this one...

1.White Witch
Ji Daggle
Don Allen
Ambassador Relnic
Beauty Blaze
Insect Queen


2. No "blondes vs. brunettes" please!
Still fond of Hate Face, whether as a regular or guest judge.

3. Fountain of 1000 Chemicals
Inshar (world of giant flowers)
Kathoon! (Hello, guest judge Lydda!)

4. I like the idea of Yera hosting.
Nura should be ineligible for this contest. Because she's a past host. But really 'cause she's NURA. C'mon! Nura! It just would not be fair.
Same deal with the other past hosts/judges...maybe they could be "guest stars" in pics a la the swimwear challenge in the Male Model contest.

TD,
LOVE all of your contestant nominees! Most excited about Ji Daggle and Beauty Blaze (though it's intimidating trying to make her as lovely as Curt Swan did). I hope these nominees do well in the voting. In fact, it kinda makes me want to make it all non Legionnaires again. We'll just see how the nominations and voting go....

Okay, I can understand not wanting blondes vs. brunettes. No need for that. Hate Face tends to show up at the finale, when the facial close-ups happen. Coincidence? No!

GREAT location ideas! I'll need help finding a reference, but my collection is pretty complete.

Oh no, Nura could never be a contestant. First of all, I'd cheat! I'd make everyone but her look dull and lame and sketchier than Sketch Lad's sketchiest.

I love to put guest stars in there! It will definitely happen.

I wouldn't mind "non-Legionnaires only". Of course I can still slip my suggestions through 'cause Mysa can be her pre-Legionnaire redhead self... she's fairhaired times two. Lana was not a "regular" Legionnaire. Hey, Luii dated someone who was NEVER a Legionnaire and she made it.

(Are you buying that?)

Inshar was early on, in or after the Legionnaire Lemon story.

The Fountain of 1000 Chemicals was from one of the Tots stories.

1. Other Contestants: Mekt Ranzz, Circe from 5YL

2. Judges: RJ Brande, Mordru, Dr. Aven (I seem to be focussing on the old, white-haired men - so I'll add the catty Catspaw for flavour)

3. Locations:
A Dark & Lonely Corner of Hell (LSH v.1 289)
5YL Khundia (LSH v.3 16)

4. Hosts
Veilmist (LSH v.3 44)
Starlight & Starbright (LSH v.2 47)
Dr. Chaseer (LSH v.2 30)

5. Blue

P.S. Inshar was Adventure 309, Fountain of 1000 Chemicals Adventure 338 (according to the Help File)

Crames! Mekt was in a previous model competition.

I can't nominate him again??

Well, I have no problem with more Mekt. And he is another double fair-haired sentient. But he probably won't get another bite at the banyo fruit.

Questions....

1. Which fair haired character from Legion stories would you like to see compete? Remember, males and females are both allowed, Legionnaires or non Legionnaires are allowed. List your top five (ish).

gals:

PROJECTRA

BEAUTY BLAZE

PSYCHE (The Wanderers)

INSECT QUEEN (Lana or Postboot)

CALORIE QUEEN

guys:

PETE ROSS

ANSIS (Catspaw's betraying boyfriend from TMK-Legionnaires)

JEDIAH RIKKANE (Power Boy from the Academy)

POLAR BOY

SEAN ERIN


2. Who's been your favorite judge in past Pinup Model competitions? Which three would you like to judge this one? Is there someone else you'd like to see be a judge?

Emerald Empress has been my favorite; Dean draws a stunning Mystelor; Hate-Face is adorable; Lester's always a joy; might be nice to see previous winner Infectious Lass judge

plus:

SUN BOY (Levitz-era ladies man!)

BRAINO OF MRYNAH (noble MEL&tLSH ladies man!)

BRAINIAC 5 (blonde fetish!)

3. Are there any exotic locations from Legion stories that would be a nice setting for a fair haired Legion character pin up? Can you give an issue number for reference?

I'll second starry Kathoon and add the Sorcerer's World

4. Dream Girl and Light Lass have been hosts in the past. Would you like either of them to host again? Remember, if they host, they can't be in the competition. Is there someone else who you'd like to see be host?

(see above)


5. What is your favorite color? The top choice will be used in a challenge.

Baby blue


6. Anything else?

Maybe separate guys and gals competitions?

GREAT nominations so far...here are some early leaders...

Beauty Blaze, contestant
Insect Queen, contestant
Hate Face, judge
Yera, host
Kathoon, location
Blue and baby blue, color

Brainiac 5 has been mentioned as a contestant and as a judge, so this usually means he'll be seen *somewhere* in the competition.

Questions....

1. Which fair haired character from Legion stories would you like to see compete? Remember, males and females are both allowed, Legionnaires or non Legionnaires are allowed. List your top five (ish).

1) Sinde - she doesn't handle rejection very well and wants another shot
2) Element Lad
3) Lana Lang
4) Magno
5) White Witch

2. Who's been your favorite judge in past Pinup Model competitions? Which three would you like to judge this one? Is there someone else you'd like to see be a judge?

Former judges:
Saturn Girl

New Judge:
Validus
Thora


3. Are there any exotic locations from Legion stories that would be a nice setting for a fair haired Legion character pin up? Can you give an issue number for reference?

Don't have issue numbers, but how about:

Medieval Orando
All-metalic Braal
the Farmlands of Winath


4. Dream Girl and Light Lass have been hosts in the past. Would you like either of them to host again? Remember, if they host, they can't be in the competition. Is there someone else who you'd like to see be host?

How about that womanizer - Sun Boy?

5. What is your favorite color? The top choice will be used in a challenge.

Green is my favorite, but that is being used in the Empress challenge, so let's go with blue - baby or sky

6. Anything else?

Yes, you are so talented I hate you

GREAT nominations so far...here are some early leaders...

Beauty Blaze, contestant
Insect Queen, contestant
White Witch, contestant
Hate Face, judge
Yera, host
Kathoon, location
Baby Blue, color

Brainiac 5 has been mentioned as a contestant and as a judge, so this usually means he'll be seen *somewhere* in the competition.

Sun Boy has been mentioned as a judge and as host, so this will surely mean he'll appear in the contest somewhere/somehow.

1. Princess Projectra, White Witch, Element Lad, Brainiac 5 (SW6 version; liked his hair), and Mekt Ranzz (yes, you'd done Mekt before, but there's several people you've repeated by having them as judges/hosts?)

2. I'd like to see Hate Face again as a judge. If you want to carry on the "fair hair" theme as judges, there's R.J. Brande and Dr. Micah Aven.

3. Do something with Durla. With all their underground life in postboot, you can probably snag some pics from RL of cave formations or crystal growths for a dramatic background.

4. Dream Girl to host. That gets plenty of pics in for her fans, but gives someone else a chance to win.

5. I'll vote for blue.

6. Actually I think we should limit this competition to blonde, white, or pastel hair. There's enough LSH-based folks in the strawberry-blonde/red/auburn spectrum to do a "Super Red-Headed League... of Space!"

Does red count as 'fair?' 'Cause I'm not sure a hair-related challenge could leave ground without Spider Girl on board.

Fair-haired lasses;
Projectra (with the long curly platinum locks!)
Gas Girl (does that count as hair?)
Spider Girl (it's alive!)
White Witch (she can mix it up, a little platinum blonde, a little red)
Lamprey (hey! Green!)

Fair-haired lads;
Sun Boy ('cause he doesn't have to be a judge or a host, he can compete!)

Less Dream Girl and Ayla, IMO. They've had their turns. Yera would be a great judge, being hair-adjacent.

Okay, the nominations have brought about some decisions that need to be made. I do believe that this should be a competition for blondes! We shall call it the BLONDE SQUAD! The redheads deserve their own competition. I am choosing to keep the White Witch in this competition, with her platinum hair. Lana Lang/Insect Queen will definitely have a place when it's time for the redheads to compete. If anyone who voted for Lana would like to give that vote to another character, that is allowed. The redheaded White Witch will be allowed into that competition if she is nominated again.

There will be a male winner and a female winner. Everyone will compete in the same challenges and face the same judges.

At this point, I believe a light shade of blue will be the color chosen for that particular challenge.

There have been lots of nominations, but Kathoon remains the only location seconded.

Yera has proven to be popular as choice for host.

Hate Face, Sun Boy, RJ Brande, and Dr. Aven have all received more than one nomination for judge.

Now, for the current standings for competitors:

WOMEN
White Witch- With platinium white hair. Her other styling is TBD.
Projectra- hair length and style TBD.
Beauty Blaze

MEN
Brainiac 5
Mekt Ranzz
Element Lad

The polls will remain open, but ideas will be funnelled into the new format.

Thank you and good luck!

A few more blond contestant suggestions to replace the redheads:

Energy Boy (see WWLSH and Baxter 14)
Policy Pam! --> although maybe she'd be a great judge-?

Judges: Gas Girl? Dr. Ryk'rr? Tab? Myron Marks? (EDE is gonna kick himself for not nominating ol' Myron.)Tenzil Kem?

So Mekt gets another shot, eh? Capital. But if Jan Arrah is in this too, will M. be able to concentrate (on the contest) at all?

Here's a current list of nominees for contestants...

Females:
White Witch* 2 or more noms
Projectra* same
Beauty Blaze* same
Andromeda
Supergirl
Queen Azura
Circe
Psyche
Calorie Queen
Sinde
Policy Pam

Males:
Brainiac 5 *2 or more noms
Element Lad * same
Mekt Ranzz *
Nemesis Kid
Ambassador Relnic
Pete Ross
Ansis
Polar Boy
Energy Boy
Sun Boy (presumedly Threeboot version)
Magno

Non blondes have been eliminated

Oops...accidentally left one contestant out of my post: Oli-3 Queen

How about Dr. Mayavale as a judge? Or dealing with his silly plotline as one of the challenges?

...Is Nura allowed to be an assistant host, at least?

And, if voting is still open, I'd go for Projecta, Supergirl, Policy Pam!, Pete Ross, and Element Lad.

ooh ooh ooh, since the redhead votes have been postponed for their own competition, I gladly second the delightful, statuesque POLICY PAM!

Some decisions have been made...
This will be an all PLATINUM and GOLD competition, including judges and hosts.

The host....Platinum Dream Girl! There has been enough interest in her for her to bump Yera from the job and she better fits the role of Platinum.

The judges...Threeboot Gold Sun Boy! Platinum Dr. Aven! Platinum R.J. Brande! This seems like an interesting mix to me...

Themes and locations have been decided. Stay tuned...

Now, the contestants:
Men: Gold Brainiac 5, Gold Element Lad, Platinum Mekt Ranzz. Gold Pete Ross. We need one more...

Women: Platinum Princess Projectra, Platinum White Witch, Gold Beauty Blaze, Gold Policy Pam. We need one more...


These are the nominees for the remaining spots...

Women:
Circe
Queen Azura
Psyche

Men:
Ambassador Relnic
Energy Boy
Ansis

Please vote for your choice from each group, then we'll begin competition!

Since I didn't mention Psyche or Ambassador Relnic, could I vote for them now? Or did I already have my say on contestants?

Azura

Relnic
