Hopefully the head sculpt, but has this not already been released in HK?

If they are fixing something its has to be broken pieces or its missing something. No way they are doing something major, since its been released overseas already.

If they are amending the figure I would probably be more inclined to not trade my order in for the new Jack Sparrow DX. But right now, looks like if I had to choose one... might choose Jack.

Are we sure that all orders for this through Sideshow have been delayed? I haven't received any email...

 

[spindrift]

Yeah that makes sense....

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I love Evans as Cap but the new Avengers costume does nothing for me at this point.

Quite frankly the way it looks in these pics it is simply awful. Sorry Cap fans- really awful!
WWII Cap outfit the opposite- STUNNING!!!!!!

 

[Jaycepticon]

of course that's how it is when you take official released pics and compare them to candid cellphone camera ones. It should be

and

As much as I love the FA costume, and I really do love it. His Avengers costume is as perfect as it could be for a live action version and is already my most anticipated Hot Toys/PF of next year or whenever it's released.

Ha ha! Those are awesome pics.

No. I was comparing Evans to Evans. You posted Evans and a chubby stuntman. No candid pics of *Chris Evans* in TFA looked half as bad as those from Avengers.

Your second pic didn't even show the Avengers cowl, which is what kills the outfit.

Sorry, I love Cap and really *want* to love his Avengers look, but nothing (candid or official) has impressed me yet.

 

[Jaycepticon]

apologies if it was Evans likeness that made originally made KillKen wait for the Avengers version then I assumed he was referring to the costume

 

[Star Puffs]

While we wait for Cap, if anyone has a genuine interest in a Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) figure, I have an interest thread up. I would really like to commission her, but would really need to sell a few to help justify/recoup part of my cost.

It really is the circle of life whenever a new design is released. I can still remember the hate when they first showed Cap's uniform in TFA. Maybe I'll just go back to that thread and start from the beginning and enjoy a good laugh at all that early outrage

 

[Khev]

Good luck finding a post of me criticizing the First Avenger suit. I've liked it since the first time I saw it.

 

[preeny101]

Yeah, I like the look.

 

[Jaycepticon]

well, of course you guys do. Only the vocal people will come out and say it The rest are probably too busy being angry about Superman's shade of red or Spidey not having a "belt"

 

[preeny101]

As long as I can look at it on my shelf and say I like it, balls to screen accuracy.

 

[CTO15]

I prefer the TFA costume than the Avengers version. The Avengers version looks too skinny
