Yea that Cap costume is truly awful. If the goal is to just confuse the **** out of people he's beating up by keeping them busy wondering who their right mind approved his design, mission accomplished.

Glad this is it for Whedon.
 
What? That's the second best CA costume so far. :dunno First is the TWS stealth suit, that's by far the best, but this one combines the stealth suit with the classic colors. Works for me...and this is coming from a guy that doesn't like Evans as CA, which to some people on SF, it means I'm must not a fan of the character and a communist :lol Seriously, look at Evans' face in that mask...looks like a dork. :lol
 
That Avengers helmet is the worst helmet/mask in any movie that I've ever seen :lol Evans face doesn't help either, he just doesn't have the face to play CA, imo. You need someone with a strong jawline like Robert Redford or Kurt Russell to play CA. Evans looks like a potato.

Getting back to the new CA, how is it nonsensically busy? :lol

Meh, I don't like the red stripes on the torso for starters. Why the need to make them weird shapes instead of straight lines? Why is the middle one different and shorter? Why put a weird pattern into the white part as well? Why all the weird cuts and layers of different fabric around the chest star? Why are the red lines coming off the star plastic instead of fabric? Why is their a giant seem across his chest to hold the chest and torso of the shirt together? Why would it be in any way beneficial to all the sudden have a red fabric section of his glove where he's be more vurnerable? Look! Not only is this weaker, we made it easy for you to see.

It just wreaks of over thinking and trying too hard to me. He's not Iron Man. He doesn't need a new costume every 6 months. I can understand not wanting to rock the blue from TWS since it was likely given to him by a now corrupt organization, but why not stick with his WW2 duds if he liked them enough to steal? Thor didn't need that much of a change.

The Russo bros. have handled him way better than Whedon in pretty much every way possible.

It's a horrible design full of unneccesary elements. Why make the stripes like little circuit board things? Why add all the red piping? Cap should be classy, simple and NOT futuristic looking. Like TFA suit, which was nearly perfect. They should have just updated that, I think that's what they have tried to do here. But no we get the Tron-Lite-Cos-Play version. It's horrible.

the stealth suit? No problems with it except it wasn't really a captain america suit.

And before you give your option, don't bother. I'm right, I'm a designer, so don't argue with me. My opinion is impeacable.
You are incorrect, just deal with it.


Scarlet Silver and Quick Witch look like they just wandered in from daytime reality TV as well. Saved by the Bell 2015. Crap.

I LOVED Quicksilver in DOFP, and I hate Aaron Can'tActHisFace from Godzilla, so this is lose lose.
 
I thought I liked that suit design. I have been duly corrected. Thank you sirs.

Now I don't need to buy the next HT figure either.

All I can say is, at least those probably aren't their team costumes. They are rocking those when they get sprung from that Hydra facility and don't seem to get a chance to change before Ultron kidnaps them.
 
I will say, the color scheme is perfect. The red white and blue isn't too dark or too bright and the brown gloves and boots are great because they don't make the chinstrap look out of place. It's a shame they didn't streamline the shirt part or I'd agree about it being the best/one of the best. (it also doesn't hurt that Evans keeps getting bigger and older)
 
The WW2 cap suit is still the best in this series. I realise it's all about selling toys, but **** that new mess.

Don't bother to give my opinion...what? I hope you were joking there. It's ALL opinions here. It's all subjective so there is no right or wrong, therefore your opinion can't be impeccable, because it's not a fact, just another opinion :lol But I respect your point of view. You don't like it...too bad. I think it looks good and better than Avengers 1. And if we're talking about unnecessary elements, the First Avenger also had "unnecessary" patters and elements. All their costumes aren't practical anyway :dunno I agree with Silver and SW, don't like them either.
 
I thought I was the only one that didn't like the new Captain America suit... which is why I didn't say anything sooner. :monkey3 Truth is, I hate it! I would rather have the Avengers suit back than this mess. My first pick would be Striker Suit, then Avengers suit and then WW2 suit... the rest sucks.


The Avengers one actually looked pretty good half way through the battle and without the helmet.

I'm not in love with the new Cap suit--too much Jim Lee influence there--but I'll probably buy the figure, just because neither of the WWII era figures had great sculpts. I am not a fan of the Avengers 1 suit, and the stealth suit is too scene specific, and too problematic in the figure's execution. But the one I keep primarily on display will probably still be the Golden Age suit with First Avenger sculpt. Hopefully by Cap 3 we'll see the suit improved further.
