Ooh, I like Ansis and Command Kid! (And XS, of course. )
So, that's Tyroc, Quake Kid and Apollo to go!

See, it's easy to judge the man-flesh as a straight dude. Just look at them and think, "who would *I* like to be..."
Apollo, love the chest and arms (jealous, jealous, okay, I'm back), but the face is a bit effeminate. Huge chin, but not a huge *manly* chin. Soft eyes. And is that lip gloss? Mmm. No.
Command Kid. I'm not a big fan of body hair, qu'elle surprise. His face also looks a tad effeminate. Another meh.
Tyroc. I don't like the 'fro, but everything else is well-proportioned. Love the silver belt. Everything looks better with inexplicable shiny metal ovals.
Quake Kid is looking good. Is that a surf-board behind him? 'Cause a surf-board would automatically score extra points for me. (I surfed once. It was very fun, for the people pointing and laughing on shore...)
Ansis, I don't even know who this is (or Apollo, come to think of it. In fact, Tyroc is the only person I've actually ever seen in a comic book before...). But he looks good. I like vests. The hair action adds some dynamic whatever.
Gonna have to reject Apollo, and Command Kid, and, and, uh, I'm gonna have to flip a coin between Quake Kid and Tyroc... Fine, Quake Kid is out according to my commerative Two-Face flippin' coin.
Note to Tyroc, it was a toss-up between the shiny metal balls and the phallic surfboard. Make whatever you want of that symbolism, I know it's got me reaching for another wine cooler...
So is it just me, or did XS just say that she was fast? Gonna give Ayla a 'run' for her money, speedyfeet?

Pretty much all of them in my case. I didn't start reading Legion until somewhere around the introduction of Tyroc, Chemical King, etc. so a lot of these older characters are complete mysteries to me, as I haven't gone back and read anything from before then.
Then I stopped soon after the Baxter run until the WaK reboot, so all of these XS, Gear, Shikari, Monstress, Kid Quantum people are also kinda new to me. (But I actually like some of them, like Shikari and Kid Quantum II, so I'm all confused...)

Tough to get rid of anyone but I would keep Quake Kid and Command Kid as well.

Apollo: Probably my favorite of the male torsos I've seen from you (dab a little chest hair on it, and I'd be in love), and I'm usually a sucker for redheads, but the face so excellently apes the style of an earlier era, I don't find it too attractive. So, Apollo's out.
Command Kid: I'm loathe to reject anyone with chest hair, but those eyes and hairstyle look very manga/anime-ish, and while I enjoy that style, it just isn't completely working for me in this competition. So, he's out, too.
Tyroc: Another amazing torso, and I like the stripper vibe I get from the way the top portion of his costume has been removed. He looks ready to take off the rest. He stays.
Quake Kid: It came down to him and Command Kid for my third rejection. The sideburns saved him. He's just rockin' 'em. If you'd given him Command Kid's chest hair, he'd have been perfect. Ask him not to shave between photo shoots. He stays.
Ansis: Easy out. Fabio hair on men is a real turn-off for me. So, he goes.
