Bottom middle is from that terrible movie, yes. I actually meant bottom right for mine. Bottom left is Age of Apocalypse Jean.
Still pondering what her costume will ultimately look like. Mebbe some mix of the X-factor mask combined with bottom right. We'll see. That's a ways off anyway.

You know with that amount of bleedover right now in a fight Taylor/Jean might try to use her power a certain way that Jean is used too only to find out she can't because it's still recovering. That could get her badly injured if she's unlucky.

Thank you for confirming.
I like Bottom Right as well. I prefer top row, number 6. That was the one I grew up on. Plus it's the most intelligently designed. It's actually armored and everything. Only downside is no mask.

I like the bottom middle because it's very red. Also because it's got the most pissed off look to the face.
Row 1 Number 7 and Row 2 Numbers 1-3 appeal to me the most despite the lack of masks. I suppose Row 3 Number 7 is alright too.

Unfortunately I can't place R1 N7 in the marvel canon. The ones on row 2 are the standard Phoenix, Dark Phoenix, and the more illustriously titled 'White Phoenix of the Crown' costumes.

Looks like from Ultimate X-Men or something in such vein. X-Men Legends II got it as alternate costume for Jean, IIRC.

The one centre right is...interesting to say the least. I assume it's some Hellfire Club get up. Not really something I could see Taylor wearing however.

Maybe. I'm trying, but I can't quite place it.

Is there a cheatsheet for all of them? The only one I know for sure is R3 N5, the black leather from the first two live-action films. (Very distinctive, that.)
Count me as one of the people who prefers R3 N4 despite its source. "I'm so powerful, I don't need a mask, armor, or even a form-fitting costume. Come at me bro!"

Unfortunately not. The best I can do is kind of sort them in my own head into generations. The first row is the Old Generation Jean Grey. Middle row is Phoenix, and third row is New Generations Jean Grey.

... So, when's Taylor gonna die for the first time?

I think N7 is her newest costume.
Here's some more detail on her costumes over the years:

The poor girl was only recently stuffed in a locker full of nasty, nasty stuff and now you're wondering when she's going to die? What did she ever do to you?

You can't be Jean without dying like, 20 times.

She's died like 4 times. And one of them was a clone.

In case of someone missing sarcasm here, there is a meme about Phoenix!Jean (and Jean Grey in general) using Death for a revolving door

I'm in a weird mood while I work on writing training materials/manuals, but I have to say that reading that makes me want to make Jean Grey and doorknob jokes. Maybe I need to lay off the caffeine or something.

I personally think that Taylor would still have her general resilience to Death even as the new Phoenix. The few times Taylor has come close to death, she's beaten it black and blue, stole it's lunch money, and sent it crying home to mommy while she goes back to doing important stuff. Taylor is too busy to die. Come back later.
So, while maybe Taylor will inherit a small bit of Jean's tendency to die while she's the host of the Phoenix, I also think that Taylor's ability to not die will balance that out to an extent.

So in the end we will get nice round Zero... And this is Worm. Forgive me, but this is not exactly inspiring
So maybe something like....
Though I went with the brown color instead of black.
Edit: And I'm afraid I'd need a bit more time than I wanted to initially invest to remove the obvious figure differences between Taylor and Jean >_>

I kind of get the feeling that the first time she dies might be the first time people realize just what they're dealing with. Which might be a little cliched, but would still be pretty sweet.
Also, there's something off about her left hand side in the positioning of her chest or ribs or whatever the correct word is. I'm neither an artist of doctor.
