All of your pictures are really good, Sassafrass, but I'm with gmoney5000...that kneeling one in EXCELLENT. Going to borrow that to pose him with my Infinity Cap when he shows up ain a few months. Very cool!

Yeah, that's a real popular one *badass*:clap! This is a great fig to work with - thanx to a softer plastic/vinyl on the hair ends and the shoulders, u can get pretty good articulation range if ur careful. Same with the hands - thanx to the vinyl and sculpting, I didn't have much problem getting Bucky to grip weapons etc. Didn't have to cheat with the putty and tape like I do sometimes:cool:.
 
Thank you!:) Yeah, u can pick up stuff like that from Monkey Depot, the 'bay, etc. but I can get away with that kind of thing 'coz I use bookshelves. They can take up space or have some weight, depending.

Hope u are real happy with him - Bucky may be my fav MCU character but IMO a *blah* fig is a blah fig :lol. Going over the rifle some more, realized the rifle alone of that quality - since I outfit my Buckys and BW with extra weapons - even if plastic - wouldn't be all that cheap:horror. Has great detail. Tip: One of my scopes kept popping off, but figured out if u carefully line up tiny pegs and holes, and push scope hard, I didn't need glue/putty - holds fine.

U can do a lot with him - articulation limited by usual pants and body etc., but overall IMO great to work with (and nice to know my CW Panther is still holding up :cool:) Just a great fig with great paint IMO. :clap Few more cell shots.....

Bad boys bad boys whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you:lol:cool:

Again, fantastic photos and poses! This will be my first (don't know about only) Bucky/WS :monkey3 since I missed the first two. Can't wait to pair him with my AoU Cap to have the duo.

Thank you! Yeah, I like my CW Bucky fine, and there's the undoubted coolness of TWS. If HT is smart IMO they will milk MCU license:monkey3 and put out a DX TWS Bucky $$$$ at some point:dunno, with the black jacket he briefly wore when WS blew up Fury's car. AND the Gerber Mark II knife they didn't include the first time around.:banghead

Played around this morning; gotta get the Buckys temporarily protected - IMO as figs go, he BELONGS. He works with everyone IMO. Liking the arm more and more - noticed last night if the light hits right, it glints off the incised edges of the arm and has this almost jewel-like mechano-organic effect - very very awesome. OK, I'll drop a few more cell shots and shut up about this fig for now.:cool:

Just haven't been so happy with a fig:joy since when the CW figs rolled out, and fig after fig to me was jaw-dropping. Tho gotta admit Ragnarok Loki (of my more recent HTs) - when he finally showed up - is pretty awesome with same quality costume.

Don't need romance in actions films but *d&mmit* Bucky/Nat was right there and the characters never even talked to each other - not like it's not a classic comic pairing or anything.:slap Oh, well, maybe the Winter Soldier will shoot her in upcoming movie...:naughty

Thanks for these cool photos Sassafras!!!

Most welcome:)! IMO can't beat in-hand pics - tho unfortunately while my wallet gets saved, sometimes it just gets enabled instead:lol:monkey3

Just one more:monkey3....credit to morpheusvisions on Insta. If only there'd been some hand to hand in the streets of Wakanda:crying

That is a fantastic pose and oddly enough I decided on something similar but used the charred outrider from the WM Mk. IV as a prop. One thing I did notice after receiving this figure and then rewatching IW, is that when we see Bucky for the first time in this outfit just after team Cap lands in Wakanda is the copious amount of dirt and grime on the blue jacket. I?m personally happy that the clothing isn?t all dirty like that but I haven?t seen anyone mention that inaccuracy.

Oh, nice:clap.....if I had to have a *nit* about this fig, it's I wish they had included an Outrider with him. Re the lack of dirt - for me guess it doesn't occur to me 'coz in real life most of these costumes would be dirtied up.

But HT only seems to do that now and again - I guess they figure buyers want pristine figs, mostly:dunno. Like my battle damaged CW Cap looks hardly different than the regular. IMO that's one good thing about KOs/third party u can dirty them up without cringing. At least, so far I've never had the guts to try to distress an HT costume.:horror

Course u can always pick up Zombie Bucky:lol - a real bargain and plenty dirty...

Goes great with the *greasy* PVC Cap that popped up last year:monkey3
 
Might get this and see if I can get a parted out/knock off Infinity War sculpt.

Guess mine and some others were from the first boatload:dunno. Far as I can tell via YT reviews etc. production is consistent *yeah*:clap PS. Sebastian Stan has hinted this arm has some yet-unexplored upgrades, so guess if u get this fig maybe it's like the comics and is sentient and can crawl around by itself etc. Or maybe it has a flamethrower. :cool:

Meanwhile, looking forward to the top customizers work w. this awesome sculpt (ongoing work):

Sweetness! Would be cool if could switch out the arm like the star on it reminds me of comic winter soldier but the head sculpt it a lot better than civil war to me from the YT videos and pics.

Head sculpt definitely IMO a step up from CW which to me is alright-ish, but kinda generic. Also IMO the paint could've been better - at least with my CW it wasn't sloppy, but just feels like not much toning compared to CW Bucky proto.

Someone who knows what they are doing could do an arm switch, maybe, but TBH this is a great arm; paint, details, perfect gloss IMO. Very very happy with this fig:love which is a good thing since I got 2 of 'em $$$:horror. No regrets at all!

Preparing for shipment

Hope he ships fast - anyway SSC hasta make room for those SW figs.

BTW re the wrist pegs - they do have a line in them to match arm plates - kinda unique so don't break:monkey3
 
So this is now in stock at sideshow, saw it earlier today. Crazy how this got released in Hong Kong 2 weeks(usually at least a month) before the US. I sure hope this is a trend with the speed of releases from HK to USA!

Hopefully it?s the case with the Mk 7
 
Ups shows he'll be here Monday!

Great! - IMO it's always better to have your stuff shipped before a rush - like holidays and SSC Spooktacular has started.

'Course so far Bucky ISN'T one of the free shipping deals.
