Actually, my real guess is that this figure is supposed to be Phantom Girl, but the colorist messed up.
A little digital recoloring, and voila!...Phantom Girl:

Action Comics #16 has Legion content in the main feature and a "Tales of the Legion of Super-Heroes" back-up.
Grant Morrison's Adult Legion in the first story appears to be the Reboot Legion with some Original Legion touches.
The Chris Sprouse drawn back-up is all Original Legion and set in their earlier days.
HTH

I put up a new post with my analysis of which Legion(s) we're dealing with here.
