XM Studios Captain America

[Tavegg]

Yeah, I collect movie > comic so probably why I don't like it...

Anyway who cares, it's yours and you love it. Really made up for you!
Again, huge grats!

That is one well crafted statue. Damn, good work from XM Studios. Congrats on the purchase Tavegg and thanks for the detailed pictures man!

Congrats Tav!! Awesome pics

Awesome pics. Glad you got it and are happy with it man! Looks cool!

awesome pics! Congrats buddy!

Thanks for the pics and review Tavegg. Congratz to you.

Love the pics Tavegg!! I'm impressed at how much of an overall presence he has...

no problem fellow freaks! thanks for all the positive comments. I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures. He's pretty damn amazing

The XM Cap looks amazing. The paint lines look clearer than anything I've seen on a statue. Glad you like him!
On a (somewhat) related note, who makes the statue of Cap to the left in the shot of the 3 1/4 scale Caps? The one on the "A" base with his shield on his back?

Thanks Slynger. That captain is a custom that I got from a fellow board member whom commissioned this and a couple others through a company called resin pieces.

Well Tavegg, your photos and review convinced me. Just placed my order for Cap through SimplyToys. Now the wait begins....

That's great Ski! I have no doubt that you will be extremely happy with your decision. I think mine shipped on Friday of last week so you won't be waiting as long as you think. Looking forward to your thoughts and pics as well

Great pics guys! These are the money shots! Glad to hear they got to you guys safe and sound.

Just placed an order...

Peer pressure can be awesome! Congrats on taking the plunge Rome. You will be happy you did!




I'm super curious to hear the opinions from the guys that are getting cap in the next couple days/weeks. Looking forward to your pics and thoughts gents

 

[Tavegg]

Just got home and was welcomed by this beast. Amazing. Absolutely love him. My pics would be crappy poor lighting iphone pics, so refer to the others for why you need this

that's got to be the best short review ever! Congrats and glad to hear yours showed up safe and sound Amalak

Amazing pics and excellent review, James! You left no stone unturned Congratublippin'lations!

I spied bits of the new pad. Looking good!

Thanks buddy

Oh yeah, nice kitchen tabletop too haha

Oh yeah, nice kitchen tabletop too haha

This might be wierd. But it's one of the first things I noticed. Love the granite or marble or what ever it is, and I also freakin love that fridge. Looks like stainless steal but it is not right?

I used to build kitchens. It's kinda a hobby now XD

Thanks buddy. It was really just my thoughts. Nothing fancy like some of the more astute pro reviewers but I gave it a go and I'm glad you liked it! I had the most natural light in the kitchen and I'm not to handy with a camera so the kitchen it was! I really enjoyed taking the pics and summarizing my thoughts so you never know. It may turn into something I do on a more frequent basis. Just need to buy more time!

So are the wings really rubberized? And if so, what do you think about it Tavegg?

 

[Tavegg]

So are the wings really rubberized? And if so, what do you think about it Tavegg?

Yeah they are. Almost like Gandolf's beard for those that have the PF. I think it was genius! If the wings would have been sculpted long term you may have problems with breakage or even with the initial shipment. I know tons of peeps had issues with the original SS PF wings. Just another little detail XM has added for the benefit of us the collectors. Something that wasn't expected or even needed but well thought out for certain

 

[savageHULK]

I really need to have it infront of me (rubberized something on a statue) to see if I like it. In my head I just picture it deforming or melting overtime. Haha

 

[nemenforcer]

big Congrats Tavegg! Looks awesome! Can't wait to get mine. Still don't have my tracking number yet but im sure I will get it soon. I never post pics of my collection but I am so excited about this guy that I might post pics like your with some other notable PF's. Scale looks spot on and the pose is just perfect.

Honestly if you didn't put your fingers to it you would never be able to tell the difference.

Thanks Nemen. I really think your going to love it! I mean its like one of those moments when your just in absolute awe that you own something this cool. I've already experimented with placing him amongst my avengers and he fits in perfectly. You should definitely post some pics. I haven't taken pics in awhile until this Cap and it adds a lot of excitement to the experience. Take a ton of shots and show off your favorite ones or just post em all! This Cap is worth of hundreds of photo shoots! I think I'm more excited to live vicariously though you and the guys that are awaiting shipment! Just to see your initial reactions is going to be awesome. Makes you appreciate this hobby just a little more

Congrats those who getting this grail. What's the material of the flag? PVC ? Resin? Or polystone?

The flag is made of Japanese PU (Polyurethane). Bendy and pretty hardy.

Wow the XM Cap looks so good....might have to sell my custom Cap ( can't believe I am even thinking it) but have to see them side by side first

Damn Zero, everytime I see pics of this I get weak in the knees.

Love this custom Cap! The only thing I see that could be improved is to minimize the thickness of or eliminate the black lines on his abdomen. Other than that, this custom is perfect.

Exactly- good point, looks very nice!
