Here's to a member of the still-growing M.Bison Hat Club! Cheers, and toast, for Poison!
*Will James Lipton Ferrell impersonation time*
One could say that a world without poison, is a world without risks, because poison involves the threat of death. That threat of death in itself creates a situation of risk, which invokes adrenaline rush and thus, excitement.
So, to those people, I would don on an eye-patch and respond, "Call me 'Danger Mouse'!"
One of the "beat'em up" genre's earliest villainous femme fatales, Poison was quite an astonishing conception for such a simple, skimpy, scrawny "babe". While she could lure one in with her sex appeal (and her general lack of clothes), one could also concur that she did not solely rely on that to "duke" it out against even males--Nor did she come out strolling in her underwear screaming "Spice Girl Power!"--which I find to be a rather exotic quality, especially compared to today's sultresses and your average, how the french say, "bimbos". Oui oui, je ne (suis) pas francais.
(May I mention her fanciful hat...!)
However, despite her amicable qualities, this purple-haired ex-member of the infamous dreaded "Mad Gear" gang (as well as alleged (E)X-man) has remained relatively unsung throughout and even into the present, with very few acknowledgements. As a petty generic character, the young woman had meritted quite low amounts of reception from the gaming audience.
On certain occasions she would earn herself a cameo appearance, and while miniscule, in those brief appearances she had made well-due of her time.
On to her career history, or his story, if you are paying attention to Lord Tiamat's canonical feature. Ha ha ha, I kill me.
This scantily-clad female made her illustrious debut in "Final Fight", a thrilling action film telling the tale of Three Amigos who fight to rescue the princess of a humble town called Metro City, where she co-starred along with an even less regarded, fiery-haired doppleganger by the name of "Roxy". In this story, she had perpetrated herself in the minor role of an underling out to preclude Haggar and company's plans of rescuing his daughter Jessica.
All's well that ends well, but for her and Mad Gear, things did not go as planned for them. Even after a rather appropriate death scene of the boss, noone in the league had regathered any of their adrenaline to continue fighting.
Feeling beat down, Mad Gear slowly descended into a dissolutionized state and things became desperate. Eventually, everyone would turn away for one reason or another, and even Poison would go "too legit to quit" (as ex-Hip-Hop star M.C. Hammer would say) with her best friend Andore Jr., a.k.a. "Hugo", and join him as his agent in a wrestling federation.
Along the lines of the Final Fight saga would entail a couple of tell-tale successors, but those two would not outdue Poison in terms of charismatic appeal. Those two have supposedly faded into complete obscurity. Bless them for trying, I say.
Anyway, as I do not have Poison on my show as a guest, I cannot ask her my "sacred questions"; however, I will provide aesthetic indulgement for your amusement!
And I shall conclude with my now-favorite phrase: "Call me 'Danger Mouse'!"
*end*
Phew, I didn't think I'd type that much. But anyway, there's very little Poison artwork to go around apparently that not only did I have to steal one from Ferrio among other sites, I also had to scrounge up for some whiteboard art, so bear with me. Some of the whiteboard ones are even drawings I did, so wear some protective goggles from this point on.
art:
From the Final Fight Revenge game
Drawn by "kagey"
Drawn by Japanese fan artist
From Ferrio's stash
Watch out for camel-toe (Japanese fan artist)
Official of Sodom & Poison - probably my favorite
whiteboard/oekaki art:
oekaki 1
Mine
by "Hibikino"
full-size by "Ammo" (the SD's by me)
by "Hibikino"
by "Ammo"
by "TK", I think
by "kagey"
by me
by me - I did cheat with Hugo a little by copying, but only from memory...!
Also, URLs of where I got some of the art from:
Fighter's Generation
Siegfried's Fighter Mania
Japanese Final Fight fan site
I can't remember where I got the Sodom & Poison one.
But that is all, unless other people have contributions, links, and/or comments!
Poison and Roxy are official members of the M.Bison Hat Club. Because of their hats, of course.

Poison probably got a sex-change during Final Fight Revenge, anyways. It's just that Capcom of Japan seems reluctant to go out and announce that FFR is storyline canon, even though apparently they've accepted it as such (well, actually, more like they don't want to touch the issue with a ten-foot pole but whatever. ...wow, I guess Capcom of Japan dislikes Capcom of America just THAT much O_o).
In AA Capcom, they say "apparently, in this game, Poison seems to be a 100% girl", but they keep saying it's a Capcom of America game in a non-very-nice way, so...
And at the end, She (this time, "she") is in love with Cody in his prison...

As far as I'm concerned, Poison is, and always has been, female.
That being said, where's the Poison BUTT PICS!?!
And where's my M.Bison hat? I joined this club with your first post, M.Bisonhatclub, and I haven't gotten my hat yet!
I'm a fanatic of the M.Bison hat!
Sorry, no butt pics right now! I know that's kind of ironic considering Poison being a he-she, and we know how and where men do each other...
But after a while of waiting...
...The M.Bison Hat Manufacturing Company, despite its low budget at the moment, has finally fashioned you a custom hat! It might not be all that much right now, but once we develop our company further, the higher budget will equal greater quality M.Bison hats.
Here is your hat, sir. Welcome to the ranks, ensign Iron D. Please enjoy your stay muchry.
Ferrio, just HOW do you manage to find rare pictures like that? :p I'm going to challenge you to find a fan art picture of Two-P, now. Even though he doesn't wear an M.Bison hat.

According to KLOV.com, Poison is not a he-she thing.
You have to love KLOV.com's proof, eh? Their proof are artworks. Riiiiight. According to artworks, Bloody Roar's Foxy is a girl, too. Sorry, but that proof doesn't cut it. Artworks of transvestites with breasts and tight pants or bikinis looking 100% female go around in Japan all the time. Hell, even POKEMON had one (James to Misty in uncensored Episode 18: You won't have any of THESE until you're older!)
*shakes head*
So, who are you going to trust? Some random fansite website that claims that Poison is girl just because she LOOKS like a girl in artworks where 'she' isn't even naked, or CAPCOM'S OFFICIAL WORD that's been in every Final Fight arcade cabinet manual or in every official book publication since Final Fight existed? You don't even have to understand Japanese to see the symbol for male next to Poison's gender in her bio in All About Capcom.
According to videogamespot.com, Gen is Yun and Yang's grandfather and Eagle works for M16 and was hunting down Shadaloo, but that doesn't make those true, either.
NonCapcom websites = your enemy (and while you're at it, throw Capcom of USA's website in there, too). Trust no one but Capcom's official word. And if you can't understand Japanese to get that, the Street Fighter plot guide makes a shoddy substitute since it doesn't state conjecture pulled out of its ASS based on WHAT CHARACTERS LOOK LIKE IN ART as FACT. Even if it's second hand info garnered from Capcom's official statements that requires constant updating to correct misinterpretations of said statements (sigh. This an admittance by the guy who maintains the darn thing), I sincerely believe it's still the best English document on SF universe canon that you can get (better than Capcom of USA, even, which is just sad).

Stylin'! However, it would seem that in order for me to use it here, it would have to be in JPEG format, and I have no idea how to change it. So could you make me one in JPEG format, if it's not too much trouble? THANKS A LOT!!!
Oh, and to quote our own ShinATProof, it's not like I'm actually gonna do Poison or anything, so why does it matter to me if she's a guy or not?
It's like BOO!

Gee, I never meant to cause quite a stirring debate. Or maybe I did. Muwahahaha, my psycho powers are getting to everybody gradually.

It is in JPEG format, by the way. Here's a link you can copy/paste:
http://cody.ammosart.com/theyoungmbison.jpg
You can also right-click and save the target to the above link if you're using IE and you're having trouble saving it in the other direct fashion, since IE is known to try and save images as BMPs at times.

That's right. She's a cartoon. A cartoon that wears an M.Bison hat, but a cartoon nonetheless. Or video game character anyways. So nobody is going to do him/her, but if any of you wanna print out an image and give it a try, you're all welcome to make that attempt, because we at the M.Bison Hat Club don't mind your feeble attempts at doing things, ha ha ha ha ha.
But my take on it is that Poison probably really was a he. Why the change beats me, but whatever floats its boat. As far as the M.Bison Hat Club is concerned, only the hat really matters.
Also, next "appreciation" thread will be of none other than M.Bison himself, because the ultimate dastardly evil villain deserves a shrine. But it will be called something other than an appreciation thread, to avoid faux lawsuits.
And Ferrio, I think I've already been there, thanks to CG Shrines' Frank Deittrich(sp?). Here's the full image to one of the above whiteboard pictures, and it is pretty icky for a borderline picture:

there's been heartache and pain.
