Hot Toys MMS243 - 1/6th scale Captain America & Steve Rogers

[Darkavatar]

Here's another pic

That's Evans head to toe.

The delts should be bigger and rounder that just looks like they padded the arms. However, the torso does have that V shape, whereas the shape of the torso on the final product is straight like ruler but that is mainly because of the fat suit, which I believe the proto didn't have.

I really wish they'd just charged more for the figure and given us the right body. I def woulda shelled out an extra $50 for accuracy

Yeah so do I but they use the same body on all Cap figures and none of them looked scrawny like this one does. If I get this I will be modding it, I just can't handle him looking so scrawny.

I'm waiting for someone to try putting the suit on a bigger body. It might do the trick

Yeah but what body though man? I mean I was looking into the DX10 bodies but you can't put the Cap head on them, since they are only for ball jointed heads.

From what I've read wouldn't the suit be too constricting for that? Someone's post said the padding under it makes arm movement difficult.

Yeah but that isn't because the suit is too tight that is because the padding interferes with the joints. If u had no fat suit and a bigger body I am sure it would work as the suit is quite baggy and not tight at all.

Awesome pictures of swapping the head to different vesions. Any chance someone can take a pic of the stealth suit with avengers gloves and boots? I need a reference look

Looking at pics of this figure without the suit on, the body looks fine to me. It has a huge chest, a v-shape, and thigh extenders. I think the problem is the masked head just looks too big for the figure.

I may actually try to cut away the fat suit when I get this figure, if it will actually accentuate the body a little more, but I'm still worried that the suit will fall apart on me. I'll be watching Clipperking's tutorial closely.

Maybe the AOU body will be different. Can use that.

And you'll ONLY have to wait a year and a half!

AWESOME SHOTS !!!!! this figure does have its little niggles and imperfections but all in all i feel it has amazing shelf appeal

 

[Centrocal]

Has anyone put Steve Rogers sculpt on Iron Patriot? Is that possible?

 

[RiggsMcClane]

Someone did just that a number of pages back. Looked pretty sweet too.

 

[Shawpaw]

Those are excellent pictures! I need to pick up that Steve sculpt.

Yeah the chest looked huge in ssjoeducatiboy's review video when he lifted up that shirt. So I don't think the body is that small but if they had of used a bigger body they would of achieved a tighter fit.

The figure will still look small though just like Clipper's does because the suit is not tight enough to bring out the definition or shape of the muscles, like the Spiderman 3 figures had. They used the fat suit on Cap so the strike suit would have a tighter fit on the figure. However, by using that they totally ruined the V shape torso look and made his arms look skinny, since they have no padding at all. While I agree with you that the body might be fine, the tailoring isn't, thus you need a bigger body in order to get a tighter fit to show muscle definition.

I think I am gonna experiment by going to the craft store getting some cotton balls or some type of material to put some up by the pecks and upper back to fill in output top a tad

Cool can't wait to see it, but you won't be able to make his arms bigger though since that area is all stitched up right?

 

[guy66657]

Kinda sucks about whole body situation. Is there possibly any way to make the suit look tighter while keeping the definition in the natural body. Haha it's not like I can put my figure in a dryer and shrink it.

Someone needs to remove the suit completely and graft it onto a body with a wider frame and actual muscles.
