Like you said with the ending to CW it almost seems like Cap would not want that type of shield back since the design is related to stark and they still have unresolved issues. Maybe they offered him one exactly like he had and he said no.

I think Proxima's spear and Cap's shield would be the perfect combination. If both the mystery weapons are spears I'll be a little disappointed.
There is a bunch of shields available on eBay if you really want one to go with this.
I'm sure Cap is past that by now. And he was never really the one holding a grudge anyway. By the end of CW we saw him already extending an olive branch to Stark, being the decent guy that he is.

My sentiments as well.
Good point but i could see him still not wanting a shield like his unless Stark offered it to him. Maybe as a peace offering
you would think the Wakandans, with their ability to manipulate and refine vibranium, can replicate Caps shield in a few seconds. They can even improve on it vastly. Steve Rogers being the character he is though would still prefer his old 40's made smeltered version.

I'd say that'll definitely be a scene in Avengers 4.

Nah I think that title goes to Gamora's jacket......she definitely broke wind just before that shot.
The film makers will be the ones deciding if Cap wants a shield.

Agreed. I take the olive branch to mean the flip phone. Aside from that, even right after the airport battle, Steve says it's nice to see you to Tony. Cap is always moving forward. No time for anything else. He's a bit hardened in IW, but I don't think there'd be animosity between him and Tony.
The only reason he'd turn down a traditional shield is if he himself feels like he's moved past that with everything that has happened. But I'm guessing he'll have his shield back in A4 (aside from what we know from the behind the scenes shots).
This article made me think about Cap's secret weapons.
I think that it is possible that the mystery weapons are related to Avengers 4. After watching Infinity War, I did not notice any weapons that are exciting and important enough for Hot Toys to conceal to prevent spoiling the movie. Proxima's spear as one of the mystery weapons does not make sense to me since I believe that it was shown in one of the trailers.
So how can the movie promo edition have two mystery weapons? I had a hunch that Cap might use them in Avengers 4 and the article below supports this possibility. Here's an excerpt from the article:
“Some characters were better served in movie 2 after this event. We were making some choices based on some characters we knew were going to leave us at the end of the first movie, so they got highlighted in the first movie. And some who were going to be in the second movie more maybe got less attention or less screentime [in Infinity War] — I'm thinking of Cap and Natasha, specifically. It's about the story we wanted to tell in movie 2, mostly.”
If Cap and Black Widow are going to be featured more in Avengers 4, it makes sense that any new weapons for him will be introduced in that movie. I doubt that he'll get a new figure for that movie since it's unlikely (but still possible) that he'll change his look enough to warrant another figure. I'm aware of the leaked set photos showing him in the original Avengers costume but if Hot Toys releases that figure it will be a 2.0.
Anyway, the link is below. It's a long article but I found it very interesting.

From an interview with the brothers,
"The Russos seemed to imply that was something that happened in earlier scripts; they suggested action figures and promotional material are organized up to a year before filming, while the script is still being worked over. As a result, sometimes there’s a “disconnect” between the merchandise and the final movie".
They were talking about Hulk in this but i'm sure it could apply to Cap also. Maybe there was something else he used but it was cut from the movie. Like War Machine in IM3. HT made a War Machine for that movie but it was never in the film because that scene was cut.

I think the secret weapon may have been revealed. BEWARE...MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR IW 2...
Since they filmed this back to back, Hot toys probably wasnt privy to the part on when it will happen, doesnt have the inside knowledge if it'll happen on IW1 or 2.
Take with a grain of salt...but again...spoilers for IW 2

Apparantly this is from the a reddit guy who gave an accurate leak, including spiderman dying in Stark's arms.
It looks like there's definitely gonna be time travel that would happen in IW 2, and like what most people have already seen by now,
we see them back in Avengers 1 final fight at New York, Thor would get beaten, and Cap picks up...Mjolnir!!!
Again, this is just rumor, but the guy seems to back up his leaks.

That sounds like a spoiler i soooo do not want to read
With the second movie almost done shooting it's going to be a very long year avoiding leaks

Its unlikely that would be included with this set. First of all he wouldn't be wearing this costume. Second, HT obviously wants to sell figures from A4 so they're not gonna give away stuff which would be a selling point for the next figure.

Agreed. And given this is scheduled to releases as early as Jan in Hong Kong (though probably won’t) they would end up spoiling parts of A4 months before it came out. Pretty much ruin the whole reason they didn’t reveal the weapons before A3. Doesn’t make much sense really.

Exactly! And even if it were delayed I doubt they would add an accessory that would be a potential movie spoiler when they could milk it for $$ after the release of the film. Although I would love to be proven wrong.
