On a related note...
we always thought “bright eyes” was cable but look at trask’s eyes and how gambit is the only skeleton with bright eyes in xavier’s vision. trask turned into a human sentinel only after he died so what if they really bring gambit back as one of those instead of Death 💀 #xmen97 pic.twitter.com/YIZIqI5KKb

Zoom and enhance
It is likely that #XMen97 is forgoing the Siege Perilous aspect and having Bastion be based on the Nimrod unit that went back to 1959 in the X-Men Animated Series episode “One Man’s Worth”
And he had been around for a while as he is depicted with Forge in his military Uniform. https://t.co/V0FsT27KVN pic.twitter.com/iCeK6Htmuo

So much history
For X-Men '97 fans, here's a throwback: 'OZT' references 'Operation Zero Tolerance' from the 1997 comics. This storyline saw Nimrod evolve into Bastion, turning unsuspecting humans into Sentinel sleeper agents. #XMen97 #MarvelComics #Throwback pic.twitter.com/Wg4dQJfsVn
