Hot Toys Avengers Captain America

[Centrocal]

Its hard to judge by the teaser image. Maybe the shield is just a placeholder

Even if the shield isn't damged in the movie, HT first attempt was not accurate. The real shield is reflective when light is hitting it but its not glossy. HT made it look like they added polish to it

I think what Nova meant was

He's a gripewhore. That's all that's meant.

It is inevitable that Hot Toys will simply reuse the same shield

No it's not. Highly likely, but not inevitable. You're not a precog.

Precisely my point

Your point is always the same: everything sucks!

Its hard to judge by the teaser image.

It's a movie still.

I think what Nova meant was in Captain America: The First Avenger the shield was seen non battle damaged for about 3 seconds

Actually the painted shield is never seen without battle damage in TFA.

No it's not.

Yes it is.

Actually the painted shield is never seen without battle damage in TFA.

Is it not? My mistake. Only ever seen the film the once.

When Peggy shoots the silver shield the scuffs carry over to the first time we see the shield painted when he places in in his back on the bike with the skuffs there.

So the CA:TFA shield should not have been clean which is why IMO this shield would be better as BD so you could switch them.

the scuffs didnt "carry over" after the shield got painted...how would that even work?

Point taken, either way it wasn't clean in the film.

I may be wrong, but i think quite a few people have been customising it to be BD?

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

No, you;re right. It was always show BD in the film

 

[Khev]

When does HT usually throw these up on Facebook? Isn't it like 3:00 am EST?

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

not sure about that but it seems right...we should know by 3pm EST if SSC is putting it up tomorrow

Seeing as I don't own TFA Cap America, I'm good with the clean shield. I think it looks better on display than the BD one.

i agree since almost all figures come non BD, it looks weird for one or two to be all beaten up when in a group

 

[highlander1]

I have 3 shields need my 4th shield slightly differnt as in battle damaged..each will be both on back and arm hate changing the shields and love both looks so never have to change em up....

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

so each cap will have two shields at once? lol

 

[Mister D]

I know Hulk will be near Monger sized, but I can't conceive them releasing him with anything over a $300 price point. Given that the toy should have no accessories other than pants and a stand, it is hard to even justify that 300 point. Perhaps if they made a Banner/Hulk 2 pack, I could see it hitting $400, but I suspect that would kill the demand for this figure. Smarter for them to milk a large Hulk run, then do a smaller run of Banners down the road.

I think he's going for something a little more like this:

I think.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

you're probably right
