Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

Mine just shipped from SS, can't wait to get it. I have every Hot toys Cap except the AOU version. Is this one really that much better, or should I hunt down the AOU version too? I heard that the Ultron version was stiff in the legs, and the head sculpt was not as good.

It's pretty hard getting him to hold the shield. The hand and wrist peg didn't want to cooperate for the longest time but I finally got it. Had to superglue a couple of the plastic pieces that attach the strap to the shield as they came loose. Overall though I really like this figure. My first Cap and it's definitely nice in hand.
 
Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

The shield was a pain in the butt. I got used to the magnetic shield on AoU Cap.
 
Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

This is my first Cap, and I love it. The new paint applications on the naked head sculpt make me happy I waited to pick up a Cap.

P.S. The mechanics of posing on the base and putting on the shield are bull $&@! Just saying. Lol

I don't think there's anything wrong with the headsculpt for the AoU version. Some people just didn't like that the eyes were not looking directly ahead. The legs are a bit stiffer on the AoU version compared to this one though. I have this, AoU and Stealth and enjoy each version because they're all different.

I have every version of Cap including some customs and I totally agree with everything you wrote. AOU version has one of the best looking suits In my opinion and obviously the best shield attachment method. Still, even after the BV CW Cap, I like the GA Cap shield the most. Best weathered Diecast shield so far!

But I definitely do like the BV shield too. It's just a shame that everyone seems to be having to reglue the straps on the back. Not a huge deal but just frustrating.

The straps now both have snap connectors on both ends. Not sure why you'd have to reglue unless the snaps broke off from the clips. Mine just snapped back on and made the shield a whole lot easier to mount than previous Captain America shields.

Perfect use of the IM helmet :clap

I was out of town all week and just got home this weekend to find these waiting for me

Really impressed with both of them.

Those are some awesome welcome home gifts. Nice pictures. Love Cap's box art.

They snap back in but come loose fairly easily. That's why I reglued them.

I had to glue back 4 of the straps as well. One was already broken off out the package. A careful dab of superglue did the trick putting them back on. Please be extra careful mounting the shield to his arm.
 
Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

Yeah definitely. I don't foresee myself taking the shield on and off too often at this point, especially after these issues.

Same here for me. With any Cap figure.
 
Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

Quick look at mine. Love the figure. Definitely my favorite Cap. Do wish the head had a little more BD but otherwise very happy. He will be relocating to a shelf with Mark 45 when it arrives later this week.

 
Re: Hot Toys Captain America:Civil War Captain America"Battling Version" Movie Promo

I know the shield looks great with Cap holding it, but the base also allows for the shield to rest behind cap's legs & it's still a good look if you don't want to mess with the straps.
