I wonder if the value of this will go up now that thr chrcter is on a tv show?

That's been the general thought. I would be a bit surprised if HT doesn't make a ton extra of this guy beyond pre-orders, and he's a Sideshow exclusive. Of course, the Rescue Captain America has stuck around a while, so who knows.

I was wondering about his gun... do you think it's cast in that translucent plastic? You can see some orange a bit further back on the gun. But maybe that's just a paint app. I love the effect on it, though. That's what I was missing on the proto pics! I so want that gun to appear on the show! LOL.

It's awesome he's coming out on time.

Not a big deal. It's not like he could've been in Cap minus for a minute or two at the very end. He had memorable parts in Ironman, Ironman 2, Thor and obviously Avengers.

And now he's starring in a Marvel TV series on ABC.

This figure is a more than worthy addition to anyone's Avengers collection, IMO.

Hell, this is right up there with Loki for me at the top as my most wanted Avengers figures.

I only got into collecting HT sixth-scale figures because I came looking for Coulson and found Loki. The Loki fig was so neat I had to order it (it finally shipped today!), but I really wanted Coulson! So I kept coming back to see if there was any news, and ended up ordering Nick Fury, Hawkeye and the Widow... I was dithering about getting Cap when the first promos for Coulson - that didn't even show the HS! - came out. That decided me - couldn't get Coulson and not give him somebody to fanboy over!

So really, it's all Coulson's fault

I just hope they maintain the character's personality. We only saw bits and pieces of Coulson before, where he was calm, cool and in control. I hope they keep this formula going.
