I think it's a really good statue. But the reasons so far, it's not Steve, it's not classic, the movie version, all are true.
But as a comic book reader, while I enjoyed Bucky's stint as Cap and thought it was cut short way too soon (and if you look at the timing, it was done for a very obvious reason), it was just that: a stint. A brief moment in the history of Cap that didn't last long in the grand scheme of things. Much like "Great Ultron," who lasted an even shorter amount of time.
While there's a few PFs I would probably buy based on a particular story line or moment, overall for myself I want the characters in their most recognized looks since I'll be displaying them for years. They need to be:
- Classic costumes like Steve Rogers Cap, Blue & Red Spidey, yellow Wolverine, Green Hulk.
- Popular costumes like Black/Symbiot Spidey, Grey Hulk, Brown Wolverine, Extremis Iron Man. Not classic, but everyone knows them, and a lot prefer them.
- Or at the very least, consistent costumes like Ms. Marvel and Psylocke (in the comics they switch to other costumes, but eventually come back to the look we all know)
Plus like stated, a PF of Bucky as Winter Soldier would be better anyway. The design has potential to make a great PF, at least more detailed than the typical Marvel PF, and it's truer to the character as how he was brought back.
I was thinking the same thing for the EX. Some switch out weapons would be great to. Also a full sculpt with just the straps and belt as material would be perfect, just like what they got going on with Deadpool. That one looks perfect and should be here next month

You really need a different name
comicbookguy is a big comic book fan!
Wow this guy had his own comic run? How could that happen? I think the liefeld agent America was one of the best characters. I would love a PF on that one!

Sorry guys my mistake. Checked on utube. Bowen produced The Winter Soldier. It would still be awesome in PF!

Thanks, this is my first time seeing this. Is this the final version that will be in the film? If so, great. The only major change is the goggles and lower face mask. A very practical change that makes sense for the real world. I dig it.
The details of his costume (straps, belts, etc) change from artist to artist in the comics anyway. Even the 2 pics I posted show different details. His only consistent is all black with no left sleeve to show the cyborg arm. So really SS could do the movie body and include comic and movie heads, kill 2 birds with 1 stone. But that's unlikely...

Lol, pretty much.
While not a necessity for collecting, having an understanding of the source material creates a different kind of respect for the statues. I look at a statue and judge the sculpt, but my value of the character is just as important.
I always debate getting this statue because I think it does look good, but it can't replace my lack of Steve. But I really did enjoy reading Bucky's time as Cap. It could have lasted another year or 2 and I'd have been happy. I read Cap comics then. Several relaunches later, I don't care to now. But the relative inexpensiveness makes this something I can put off.
