Actually I thought the general consensus was they were too small......I think the AoU version is perfect cuz its shoulders are bigger and it actually looks like how it should

Right, I see what you mean. Just looked at them side by side. It's that damn fat suit. I removed it on one of my Stealth Caps but kept it on the other. That thing really ruins the figure. When I removed the fat suit I actually took it one step further because of my modified Avengers 1 Cap. I wrapped the torso with some cotton bandage in a cross pattern. Avengers 1 Cap was just too skinny and after removing the fat suit fromStealth, the suit was too baggy. My results were, and I'm speaking modestly, impressive!
 
By the way, DA, awesome review again! I wish that I had half the talent and courage to put video reviews on YouTube like you do! Great job!

Thanks! :hi5: and you should give it a shot. Won't hurt to try right? :)

Sounds like good work! Yeah Avengers 1 was too skinny. Still love the figure tho :) I never mod any of my stuff
 
Sorry, I know this is the Mk. XLIII thread but since we got side tracked on Cap, I'd love to share my results. I'm usually just posting on the FB groups but haven't been lately so LMK what you all think.

First picture is one of my Steve Rodgers that I felt needed a change of clothes and shield. He's not Kitbashed but only body, head and hands are from the original figure. My kitbashed Steve is waiting for his WWII uniform. Second picture is with, without (obviously because of pose) fat suit and modded Avengers 1 Cap.

Agreed, best Cap ever, did you get him yet?

Since I don't have the strength and knowledge of 10 thousand worlds, I'm not sure if you're asking ScottPSU or me about AoU Cap. Since you quoted him, I assume you are asking him but I never will assume around Brainiac, too much knowledge, lol. Yep, I have a couple AoU Caps already.

I'm really too scurred and shy to post videos, lol. Also, with this damn house and job, I'm so freaking busy I hardly have time for my hobbies anymore.

It was such an easy and non threatening mod though. And to me, at least, made all the difference; he actually looks like he has muscles in his chest, lol. All I did was take off the shirt (pretty easy) and then use some cotton bandage in a crisis cross pattern to bulk him up a bit. No loss in articulation and he looks like he's got so,e definition in his upper body now.
 
:lol

Yeah those were my 2 from HK. I'm waiting on a 3rd from SSC. Cap and IM are just too irresistible to me and I buy multiples. For example, I PO'ed 1 Iron Legion in HK and the other 4 from SSC. Don't even get me started on Ultron drones. I'm going to need too many.
 
A few more pictures (sorry in advance for the lighting in my apartment being so bad) of the Mark 42 and 43 together, since people seemed to like them before. :)

Also, since the current topic of the conversation is Cap, I just want to say I can't wait for my AoU Cap to ship, because I'm dying to see him alongside my Mark 43 and Thor!

LOL - very funny! I think he actually was asking you...
