Of course BP looks cool! He stole my heart too .. and my money, coz I preordered him despite wanting to wait for his solo movie version. XD And I don't think that all the attention BP gets means he's a better figure. He's just freaking awesome. I mean, look how smooth he looks, have you checked the thighs? holy ... He looks cool in a Batman kinda way and seeing how great articulation is, of course lots of people are interested. Meanwhile, WS is the 2nd Buck and he just doesn't look as impressive as BP which has nothing to do with HT but with the character and outfit design. But I'm sure we'll get a few reviews soon.Well, admittedly BP looks very cool. For me it's the BP long claws. But that's not to say one figure is "better" than the other. I won't touch BP until reviews are out and there is a better idea of what that suit material is.
And IMO HT could have treated BP, WS, and Falcon better - no word on CW Falcon at all, and it wouldn't have hurt to include a scratched shield w. WS and a head sculpt w. BP. Oh, well, there's always custom accessories - still keeping an eye out for a 1:6 motorcycle that would work w. Bucky - will work harder at that through the summer.
Meanwhile, I'm also gonna CHERISH my CW Cap, checked SSC and now waitlisted but since he was low stock I think that means he's gone at SSC anyway.

Yeah, I couldn't resist Black Panther, he just looks way too gorgeous. Have you seen the review at Youtube? He looks good in almost any pose and you really can get looooads of poses coz articulation is amazing. Figures like this are also a bit more versatile than figures with head sculpts, ya know? I mean, look at Buck, I like the head sculpt and the figure itself but there's not much you can do with him. You can make him stand there holding the gun, not holding the gun but it will be hard to get a real action pose that doesn't look off due to the facial expression. For me it's fine coz I rarely go for real action poses but for others it might be the way to go. Black Panther on the other hand, you can have him crouching, jumping, running, clawing someone's eyes out and it looks cool coz on top of the awesome suit, he's got the mask so you're never gonna think "hmm ... that expression doesn't really suit the scene". ^^LOL I have a brother who always sez "you can't go wrong with black". I agree. OMG, you're getting BP? That's awesome! (no pun intended LOL). I know what you are saying about WS - it's a different kind of thing when the character is mostly in street clothes and re the film wasn't loaded up w. weapons or magical effects or even Hawkeye's arrows. Still, I am fully appreciative of Bucky's cargo pants and jacket and general overall awesomeness. AND from the looks of the OSK KO photos (which to me are really good pics even if it's a KO) there's a huge amount of detail going on.
Not my pic, saw it on Facebook and damn, look at that! ♥
BP and WS both look so cool together like this!

That being said, I'm waiting for someone to post a video review of Buck, so come on guys!
I'd say, check Ebay.Where can I find a 1/6 Harley?
I'm not sure this sculpt is superior - I mean, I understand what you're saying. And I know LOL, but:

Regarding the comparison pics, I gotta agree. ^^ The only difference I see is that one has colder light than the other and that the angles are different. It's the same sculpt to me.1. Left side: appears to have a tungsten-type light shining on it,
2. Right side: has a "warmer"-colored light shining on it...?
What are the other differences?...? Am I missing something?
At this point I'm about to urge you to cancel this figure, since I don't think there's any possibility it will be perfect enough for you when you get it.
In other news, I own the MoS General Zod. He has a grimacing facial sculpt. While I don't mind it, it ALSO limits his posing options so be careful what you wish for.... I prefer more neutral sculpts, myself, you have more leeway with them.
Oooooh post pics please!! How's articulation?Bucky arrived today! I'm trying to get my computer to work so I can post pics here, but in the meantime pics will be up on my insta soon. As soon as I stop freaking out

Regarding the expression, I don't want HT to drop that stoic expression and give him an angry one instead. I want them to give him both like they did with CW Cap. Considering how little Buck comes with another head sculpt would have been very much appreciated and the costs should have been covered with his price. Then again, BP should have come with an unmasked head too ... -____-'''
Oooooh post pics please!! How's articulation?
