Hot Toys Golden Age Captain America

[mikericm]

That mask bugs the hell out of me. Looks like it's poorly put together. By the way, I guess no headsculpt with this one eh? At first I even thought the cowl/mask was removable, but it's clearly glue to the head.

It's sculpted on isn't it? The cowl i mean

No it's cloth

Are you sure? I originally thought it was cloth. But I think it looks sculpted.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Looks better than it did at SDCC. If this was $150 or less i'll be getting it.

 

[The Josh]

Figure looked really cool at sdcc. This is a must to finish off my TFA collection.

Yep. Grab the Hawkeye boots and change the colour, they are a much better match for a comic style Cap. Ironically, when they designed Hawkeye they lifted the boots straight from Cap.

200 bucks for an Hasbro figure in Pijama?
No thanks.......

You took the words right out of my mouth!

Oh cool. Will try that. I figure when I get the real avengers cap I can use the Evans sculpt from that too. Thanks for the advice.

 

[LordAzrael]

I think what throws off the design for me is the flaps on the boots and the gloves need to be more oversized to resemble swashbuckler style gear.

 

[Viking Spawn]

The newer pics make him look better. Still not enough for me to buy one.

It's not even up for PO yet let alone actually released

OK, would you guys prefer the figures cost be kept down with minimal accessories (what we see plus some hands), or would you prefer a $180-200 figure with some good accessories?

More accessories every single time, no contest. Unlike most people, I think Hot Toys is fair with their pricing for the most part. If they deliver, I'll pay, simple as that. Give me all the heads, hands, and accessories I want and take my money. Don't even get me started on all of the Steve Rogers head sculpts I think we need, Hot Toys needs to start delivering on that! I'd love to see Hot Toys do three head sculpts (I know, impossible!), two masked w/one smiling, and an unmasked head. Toss in Steve's sketchpad and a trench coat and volla, instant awesome display:

Definatly the accessories. However lately it seems like the baseline for your average figure coming out at the end of the year is closer to $220

But I have to point out that as recently as last year Hot Toys has no problem with delivering both on great accessories and a low price.

in 3, 2, 1...

I was interested when it was the Rescue and Golden Age 2 in 1. I wonder what made Hot Toys change their mind (aside from the $$$, of course)?

It's like releasing 2 version of jack sparrow, one with coat, hat and serious face and another with just the vest, just the bandana and with a smiling sculpt.

i guess dx jack is one of those 'rare' moments when Hot Toys just went all out.

so yeah, my CA:TFA collection is done with ww2 cap.

I think if you were planning on both Rescue and GA cap at the same time, given the cost of another body shield and shirt, plus the increase in cost to the figure itself, I don't know that you're paying much more (if at all) now than you would have for the 2-in-1. Obviously if you planned on displaying one at a time and switching you're screwed.

Good thoughts. Maybe SSC could toss in an exclusive water bucket.

For head sculpts, I'd like two - one smiling, one open mouth talking, and I'd probably prefer a removable mask instead of a sculpted one, but that could cause funky hair.

 

[Johnny Utah]

We should definitely get an unmasked head here.

I'd love a smiling head sculpt and a salute hand but I guess the former is pretty unlikely at this point

Looks goofy .....

When's the pre order?

That's how I feel too. I didn't order the original figure, feel like the Rescue Version isn't for me, and the Avengers one looks a little weird (I'll decide if I want it when it comes out). When this one comes out I'll definitely want it, even though it looks a little goofy.
