It may just be the angle of his head in the photo. I'm looking at the head pretty closely, and don't see it in person at all.
It's that the way the belt buckles is with two tiny clips going through two very small loops in the fabric in the back. It's a very loose and tenuous hold. If you pick him up and handle him, the belt will come undone.badrat said:

This is kind of an issue I had at first. If you try and get the hooks connected closer it might help you out a little bit. Also, you can try and slide the belt down on his hips a little bit more. It will put more pressure on the hooks.
Does anyone think that his shoulder articulation is slightly weird? I can't get him to reach much more than above his shoulder...

Just got notification from UPS that a shipping label has been created, and it's estimated to arrive on Christmas Eve. That's both awesome, but slightly worrisome, since we'll be away from home for a good portion of the 24th. So hopefully they deliver in the morning or early afternoon...
Does UPS accept a note on one's door in lieu of a signature?

I'm noticing that too. I think the jacket just needs to be twisted the proper way. Maybe you can pull the sleeves up the arm a bit to allow more room in the armpit. Did anyone take the jacket off to see what body is underneath?

This is the funniest thing I've seen all day. Makes me think of the old Twisted MEGO Theaters in ToyFair magazine.

That helped a little bit thanks! It is still not as good as I was hoping but I guess I can settle.

Not sure why SSC switched, but I agree that FedEx runs things alittle differently. My initial delivery date was tomorrow, but a couple days ago it got updated for today. Granted it went to my work address, but still I can see how that would throw someone off. Sure, getting it a day earlier than expected is a nice surprise unless you have plans that can foil that.
Still the shipper box arrived in good shape, only a couple of dents that fortunately didn't effect the figure's packaging. Now I just have to wonder how the SSC Christmas card got in there... don't tell me they broke the seal.

Ah....Twisted Mego Theater. Ever since I got my first HT figure (Iron Man Mark VI) I've wanted to slap some googly eyes on these things and go crazy. I need to see if there's a simple way to do that in photoshop. I mean, how hard can it be? <---(channeling Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear right there)

Great photo! Nice angle and everything.
My Lady loves Cap so I let her buy this one for her self... She couldn't resist and asked to borrow my MK Vii for a moment.

Here is a quick shot of my Cap. No time for any real futzing yet, but hopefully in the next few days!

Yeah, I had mine sent to work, too, since I knew I wouldn't be home to sign. I work back in the department that usually handles receiving from FedEx or UPS, so I assumed it would come straight to me. Instead, the driver decided to drop it off somewhere else. I got a strange look from the girl that wound up receiving the package though. I could tell she was wondering why the heck I was having toys sent to me at work.

Arghh. Loving the figure but HT needs to figure out something besides these flimsy plastic snaps. Now used to attach the hood to the collar for the alt. portrait. I've never been able to get these little snaps to work, they just fold up rather than go in. Luckily you can just tuck the hood in and it looks fine.

Haha. I laughed. I didn't really have anything in particular in mind with that pic. It was just a goofy pose.

Childish humor is encouraged. These ARE toys, after all. Expensive ones to be sure, but still toys. Be a kid!

Received via FED-Ex, another photo to share
Just outa the box. Brilliant figure. The lack of ankle articulation is the only downside I can see so far.
Darkseed lies. He wants.
Keep the pics coming everyone! It'll keep me drooling until I eventually get mine!
