Sub-Atomic manipulation. I could alter the very fabric of reality as I so choose, or just shoot lighting (highly concentrated bursts of electrons).

I'd take unconstricted shapeshifting you know what I mean having blades extend from the 18 arms I'll have growing out of my back, tentacles spewing forth from my mouth to destroy stuff, my body growing larger than the statue of liberty, and morphing parts of my body into weaponry like flame throwers and nuclear reactors.

The powers of Montage. Why? Because, assuming it isn't against the rules, I could simply have a montage of me getting any additional powers that I please.

Also because montages are awesome, and are the ultimate weapon against your enemies.

I'll get you one day...

I'll just use my powers to make your clothes vanish =P And then what? Your naked! Whats your power, telepathy? You can't telepathy clothes on!

*looks down* I'm fairly sure that's a penis! You sexual deviant, you! ^_^

However, now you mention it, I'll take control of your mind... then lead you around zapping clothes off women, point at you when they start screaming, then scram! Haha, foolproof...(!)

 

[Shameless]

Mind control, that would be awesome.

My first choice is "The ability reconstruct/manipulate reality" though that probably won't fit in X-men so... The ability to manipulate the space around me, say maybe 2mile radius or iuno... however whatever is allowed. It be nice to be able to break down, connect, and reconstruct space. Time and space is connected as well, so that'd be fun.

the power to have a healing factor like that of deadpool's.

also, im worried about X-men first class...it takes place in the 60s from what i can tell. soif the first movie is in the near future wouldn't that mean mystique is pushing 50? seriously after wolverines messed up movie these films are getting some timing issues.

and are they going to tie this in with the avengers and the other marvel movies? cause mutant are a huge part of the avengers.

I'm not actually sure how it works - at first, I thought First Class was in an entirely different "universe", as it were, to the other X-Men films, but then Wolverine makes a little, pretty funny cameo, and also they are listed as being prequels to the other films. It does explain how Mystique ages slower, but, thinking about characters such as Emma Frost and Beast, who appeared in Origins and X3 respectively, it doesn't make sense. Also, Alex Summers is in it, and he is Scott Summers' brother, which means that he would be about 30 years older than his (older) sibling.

Yeah. Great film, but not sure how it ties in with the other trilogy. If someone could clarify that would be great. Also, I didn't see a Stan Lee cameo?!

I would take shadow manipulation as in I will become some shadowy figure. Also in this form I can telepoer/ travel using the shadow itself.

 

[Elidibus]

Telepathy and Telekinesis along the lines of Jean Grey. Not Phoenix level stuff, but enough to where I could do pretty neat things like move cars and what have you.

 

[kfwanderer]

The power to look into another person's eyes and immediately gain all their knowledge, skills, powers, and talents WITHOUT gaining any of their memories or character traits. If you've got powers, I've got them, too. If you're just better at something than me... nope... turns out you're not. And I don't lose who I am by gaining any personality traits of those I copy those gifts from.

Yay me.

For me, it would be a toss up between either a healing ability like Wolverine or super-strength. Probably boring to some people, but those are the ones that appeal to me the most.
