You're willing to wait another 3 years?!



Oh great.... What strike?

This one

https://news.yahoo.com/cargo-ships-stack-los-angeles-port-strike-7th-205246719.html

A weeks worth of imports are sitting on ships with no place to unload. They said 40% of the imports go thru this port, Hopefully the ship Cap is on is not one of them.

Can someone post a pic of the angry head sculpt with the Rescue USO helmet on?

Same, mine hasn't updated since it was posted

Got mine today from HK from timcent88 from an EBAY Buy it Now auction. He shipped on Thu last week. I had it shipped EMS to NYC- he only charged me an extra $17 for EMS. Usually HK sellers charge $30 to $40 for EMS.

Figure is excellent- I will post a few pics tomorrow night with the rest of The Avengers figures.

He is a great EBAY seller- Highly recommended if you don't mind paying an inflated price to get a figure early. Cap is my favorite Marvel character- I couldn't wait until Sideshow filled my order.

Going to keep the SSC one I ordered to display unmasked with the other two Cap figures.

I finally broke and ordered myself one as a reward for not breaking and ordering 1...oh wait ****.

I finally broke and ordered myself one...months ago.

I caved in and bought it off ebay. Should get it before christmas. Keeping my fingers crossed!

 

[Mroiman]

is there anywhere to buy this in stock that isn't $300?

 

[Glennfett]

I just cancelled my order with Sideshow-too close to Xmas.
Hope a freak on here gets it!!!

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

Isn't it just on back order? Not really sold out..?

Quite the color difference between the blues on the uniform and helmet.

Aw crap! That doesn't sound encouraging, does it?

Wow Xeno! Those look great!!! Looking forward to the review!

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

Another great set xenom0rph!

 

[xenom0rph]

The color difference is only because of the artificial lighting...in hand its barely visible...I'll double check this for you. Might have to play with color balance a bit on the vid review...on my reviews even some black things look purpleish.

In general my first impression was damn good of this figure. So life like sculpted.

Different materials reflect light differently,
so I guess it's really hard to make the helmet and the suit perfectly match in color.

They don't even match in the film. I don't think that they are supposed to. These two pictures from a dark interior and a brighter exterior (even though CGI enhanced)...

...show that there at least three shades of blue on Cap's uniform. The blue on his chest matches the the blue on his arms, but it does not match the blue on his shoulders and neck, which is darker. This in turn is closer to his helmet, which is then slightly darker still than everything else.

It breaks up the blandness of his costume otherwise and differentiates it from his 'Golden Age' look, which it would have resembled more if this new design did not have all the extra panel-work.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

I really don't think they should match, too.
It's funny that people also brought this up with the TFA Cap.
