The AOU suit is basically the stealth version with some alterations. That's why a number of people have put off this set.

True, but the actual Stealth suit is the defining suit of the Winter Soldier.

Also did anyone notice if they used a different body? AOU version seems to have a more muscular chest and upper body as a whole.
 
Yeah. TWS costume it totally different. Only the belts and the collar area are the same, but even the belts have different colours.
I don't understand the people that are calling the AoU Cap a "repaint". Doesn't even make sense. The material might look similar but the actual design is very different.

I know. It's sheer stupidity.
You can understand a soda can colour change being a minor thing to work out.
With HT(And similar manufacturers), EVERY SINGLE COSTUME has to be sewn together and put on the figures. I am sure there are some shortcuts, but once you make one, if you are going to make 5000, every single one has to be made the same way. there is no way to make one and have some machine poop out another one just like the first one.
Even IF the costume were exactly the same(And every panel is different), it's still a gigantic task to make more, even if only the colours were different.
 
My grandfather operated one of these things for forty years.
My granddad worked in a nice building, he got good tips.
He'd walk home every night, roll of ones stuffed in his lunch bag. He'd say "hi", people would say hi back.
Time went on, neighborhood got rougher. He'd say "Hi", they'd say, "Keep on steppin'."
Granddad got to grippin' that lunch bag a little tighter.

:lol Great photos, That Fury looks really good!! :rock
 
What happened last time? Limited release thus driving up aftermarket prices?


Fury went up for sale first, then Hawkeye. Most people passed(Thinking, i *can't* get them ALL. I'll get Iron Man and Cap), then after Fury and Hawkeye had come and gone, people realised they WANTED them all, but Fury and Hawkeye were sold out and going for huge prices.
This time, Cap went up, Iron Man, Hulkbuster, Widow, Hulk. All ones that a completist would want to order right away.
They are saving Maria Hill and Fury for later, once the completists have come to the conclusion that they will HAVE TO have them all, lol.

Ah, i see haha. The learning process of HT as is their advertising on popular comic book sites and driving up prices...

I'm happy to hear Maria is also being made. :yess: It was funny seeing Kimmel unable to keep from looking at her chest area on Tuesday... :lol

I was just speculating.
There's no guarantee of Fury and Hill.
I was just assuming.
But i could easily be wrong.
