That's what I'm looking to do. A member here hooked me up with a screaming deal on this guy - now just got to get him all squared away for his "out-of-the-box" look.

It's a cracking figure.
Highly under rated. And one of my all time faves.

I finally have this guy on order. What is everyone using to coat the shield with before if flakes? I've never coated anything so any tips would be appreciated.

Tamiya ts 79. I got mine from ebay.
there is a great video on youtube by a member on here, that shows you how to do it. it's on this thread somewhere.

Not sure if it's the same guy, but it's pretty basic.

Great video. Thanks for the replies. Now I just need to go order the spray!

 

[IronMan81]

Yep, that's the video. I found it pretty useful, my shield turned out well.

I got a Titan Shield today.
On the whole i am very happy. For $10, well worth it.
I will paint it up myself for a better set of colours but i still like it.
It not much smaller than the HT one but way cheaper in any case, so worth picking some up.

Awesome set up and those unmasked head sculpts are amazing! Who made them?

Wow! Nice Cap collection! Titan Shield? Is that the shield that comes with the $10 Cap they sell at Walmart? Hence "Titan Series" lol I think I'm gonna pick up that Cap now

Thanks.

That's the one.
Well worth the cost. Especially as the head will be usable too for certain customs.

Cool thanks, I know target had them going for BOGO half off. Gonna see if they still have that sale. No matter I still want the Cap now.

Ah the Rescue head sculpt? In those pics it looks great. that sculpt always turned me away but in your pics it looks exactly like Evans. Great Cap collection you got there!

Sweet. Post pics if you pick a few up.

Thanks. I have since traded the custom Golden Age one on the right for a MISB Kevin Flynn. I have two of the GA Cap on order anyway, so will have them for the shelf anyway.
I am a big fan of the Rescue sculpt.
Up till they showed TWS unmasked headsculpt, it was the best available. Now i will need eight of those heads for my unmasked Caps...

Both look fantastic in the video. Very nice and the new head sculpt looks fantastic. Have all TWS figures on order so far just waiting for Falcon. The new Golden Age Cap looks great too. TFA is a cool figure but could never get myself to purchase one with the flaking issue.

Paintwork is easy to fix. And the figure is solid otherwise. I can heartily recommend TFA if you can pick one up.
In my eyes, it goes perfect with the other two TFA figures. Or on it's own.

I want to but at the price I just don't feel the need to have him. I got The Avengers Cap coming in and I think that'll work for me. The new Golden Age Cap will replace TFA in the spot. I've been thinking a lot about getting one but at this point I haven't decided 100%.

That makes sense.
If you don't need it, don't get it.
The only thing i *really* want now is a DX headsculpt of Steve Rogers.
But i can make do with the other heads.

I'll already be having tons of Caps in my collection so not to have one is fine with me. Oh I hope one day we get DX figure of Cap. That would rock! But I'm fine with just MMS. DX isn't a deal breaker for me anyways prefer painted eyes over the PERS.
