Well.. Kinda, Rogue<>Power Absorption. She can copy it.

No, she can't ... her power is restricted to activated powers.
Thing's text ...

It's not activated and, unless I'm mistaken, even if Rogue could steal it, you'd still have to KO equipment attached to Thing because her power wouldn't change the "Thing" in the text.
Good try, though.

My bad sorry, I thought Things power was activated. Well it is, but the wrong part of it... you know what I mean anyway

Not activated, therefore Rogue can't copy the ability. Ike E Bare, Rogue does change the text to make it work with her name.
Eggnet, you still can't join the "4 - 2 At SGC" Club.

From the UDE Individual Card FAQ ...
| QUOTE |
Rogue (Power Absorption) [ MOR-022 ] Character: Brotherhood, Recruit: 4
At the start of the combat phase, target a character. You may use the target's activated powers this turn as if Rogue possessed them.
If one of the target character's powers uses that character's name, use Rogue's name instead. |
Besides the fact that the official FAQ incorrectly lists this version of Rogue as a Brotherhood character ... it does prove my earlier statement (at least the second half of it) wrong.
Thank you Like for steering me straight.
