This.
I'm surprised at the reception this is getting. I wondered whatever the hell happened to this figure when it was revealed...what? Last year?? I'm pleasantly surprised that its actually gonna get released at all and am looking forward to getting it. Provided that the price is right of course.
Also, complaints that its another cap?? C'mon, for real? How many iron mans do we have? This is nothing!
I love what this figures outfit stood for in the film. It was used as propaganda. It's cheesy, yet retro and cool at the same time. It was an homage to the comic look, and showed just how cheesy the spandex outfit would look on film.
The way it was incorporated in the movie was actually genius. Not only did we get the classic spandex look, but we also got a practical combat outfit. It's like having your cake and eating it too. Even the batman nor iron man films did something like this.
I'm not arguing about the quality of the movie, but the fact of the matter is, this is the only superhero movie that found a way for the hero to don both his classic, iconic spandex outfit along with an updated practical outfit...in the same film! And the fact that we are getting both is cool unto itself.
Lets show a bit more enthusiasm here fellas.
When I first saw the movie, I thought this was genius too.
