      Same thought I had as soon as I saw the name Bastion. O:ZT is also a 1997 crossover, and includes both Valerie Cooper and Forge in pivotal roles. The upcoming episode Bright Eyes is like a reference to Rogue's pet name for Cable from the original series, and may coincide with his O:ZT storyline of breaking into the X-Mansion, which was seized by the US Government, in order to prevent Bastion from getting Xavier's protocols. The story also ends with Scott and Jean going to Alaska... the same place he met Maddie originally. It also ends with Joseph, the Magneto clone Rogue actually had her first real 616 relationship with. Marrow, who was on a missing poster in Episode one and featured a few times in the background of episode 5 also joins the X-Men. Lots of little connections all over that they can run with.

    Why not?! Bastion was the main villain in Operation Zero Tolerance, Messiah Complex, Messiah War, and Second Coming. Let's not forget that Bastion is a fusion between Master Moid and Nimrod. In other words, Bastion is a Prime Sentinel.

    They did tease Bastion at the Gala. Magneto looks up and you can see the upper half of his head walk across the screen. Not to mention he was also in that scene where all the government heads were sitting around the table discussing plans. 3 cameos so far seems way too high for him not be involved.

      4. If you include the Sentinel blasters the FOH got. That along with the line the Xcutioner said about "What you freaks think we wouldn't find a way to evolve too?"
      Hinting of the Hybrid Sentinel process the FOH may forced to be undergoing very soon. It is horrifying how they show the conversion process in video games and comics.
      Bastion was teased even with episode one. They also said he will team up with Sinister. He could have been paying FOH the 10,000 per mutant to experiment and collect their DNA for Bastion's upcoming war (which we seen his first plan of in episode 5).

    I mean, they never disclosed what happened to the remains of Master Mold after the first episode of "X-Men '97"... and Bastion is what happened when Nimrod and Master Mold's programming were integrated together before being "fused" into a new being by the Siege Perilous in the comics. It would be one hell of an explosive reveal.

    Crazy how Xmen 97 is combining so many storylines. I see your point with Bastion, but its interesting that Xmen 97 is combining bits of Inferno (Goblin Queen story), Fall of the Mutants ( Forge and Storm with the Adversary), and Mutant Massacre ( Sinster agenda with the Marauders and the slaughter of the Morlocks).
