Hot Toys - MMS174 - The Avengers: 1/6th scale Captain America Offical Specs and Pics

Thanks. I'll have to be more careful with that. I tend to get carried away when I break out my photo tent.

I'll be posting my pics of Thor and Iron Monger soon too.

Just make sure you dont get too close to the figure. It looks more accurate if you zoom in than if you stick the camera right in the figures face. What kind of camera are you using?

What's the ideal distance for a 1:6 fig? Is a meter a good length?

i usually go about 2 feet away

Would be awesome for CA 2.

You got your wish!

If that's real then the figure will be an easy pass for me. Basically solid blue? Granted the helmet looks better but I have never been a fan of the "Agent of Shield" look for Cap...

 

[Dave_W]

Seems he didn't like Stark's "Spangley outfit" comment!

I'm gutted really, I ended up passing on the Avengers one hoping that CA2 would feature a similar outfit. Ah well.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Its still in-stock at SSC...go buy one, you wont regret it!

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

there are also several members selling them, some in the UK if I recall correctly

I'm a fan of the AoS shirt so I welcome the costume.
Passing on the figure though as I'm sticking to one fig per character.

...well except iron man

..and maybe superman..

A man after my own heart.

Cheers Nick, I'll keep an eye out. Gotta get the wedding in May out of the way first...she'd kill me if I bought it right now, especially with all the Iron Man 3 stuff she doesn't know about.

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

Lol. Best of luck!

Thanks! Gotta making this a rule.

It all depends on the camera though and lighting. Take some test shots at different distances and with different lights to see what gives the most accurate pictures.

Me likey. Love the flag on the arm.

If it was a different character I would like it fine. However, it doesnt embody Captain America. The AoS costume in the comics doesn't work and I dont think it works for the film either. If I had to guess, I would say its their attempt to make Captain America less "American" and more of a generic super soldier so he appeals to a wider audience...

It also looks as if they are saving the bright colors for the Avengers movies. Thor and CA both went from subdued colored outfits and now back for their solo movies.
