1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Captain America: The Winter Soldier - Golden Age Captain America

For those that have seen the movie, is this his absolute final suit? I figured since this was a low edition/movie promo edition, I could see them releasing another one for mass release that includes a maskless sculpt and/or another shield, at the very least.

Not really a spoil, but I'll tag it anyway, this is regarding screen time for the suits:

Spoiler:

He wears the stealth suit in the beginning, then civilian clothes, then this Golden Age suit. It's been almost a week since I've seen the movie, but I would guess that the three are split pretty evenly. The amount of time he spends in this suit has got to be pretty close to the amount of time in the stealth suit. Possibly even a little more. I wouldn't say that he definitively / obviously spends a lot more time in one than the other.

My guess was that they limited this figure because it looks so similar to the FA figure, and they probably thought that they wouldn't sell a ton of them for that reason.

I like having "exclusive stuff". Nice to feel that I got something pretty exclusive with this. I was dead set against it, since I have the FA figure and this really isn't much different (I do think it's better, but not $225 better). But I PO'd it yesterday as soon as it went up and figured if it wasn't sold out in a few days I'd cancel.

Not canceling.

And since I'm dressing up as Captain America these days, why the hell not?

Love the suit!

I'm super excited for this fig. My first Cap! Had no hesitation on ordering him. Him and the new black widow will be pretty awesome together.

The BD Iron Man MK VII sold out in 3 or 4 hours.

Gotcha.

Yeah it is kinda a nice feeling these days, especially when you see so many people with the same stuff in their collections. Having more rare or even seeing something different in others collections has it stand out more. Not just more of the same.

Hey welcome to the forum! Personally, this is probably my favorite Captain America figure from HT thus far. I was only hesitant because it's so close to the FA figure. I think it looks awesome.

And personally, the face looks as much like me as it does like Chris Evans. So I might just say that it's an exclusive HT figure of myself.

I caved. Wasn't planning on it, but the suit just looks too damn cool

 

[Shawpaw]

That's insane in how fast it sold out! Glad I got one!

Thanks! And now that I look at it, it IS very similar to you. Hahaha

 

[Johnny Utah]

I jumped on the waitlist just there. Hope it converts.

I don't think it looks like Evans very much, so I'm just throwing it out there that it IS me. At least that's what I'll tell anyone who sees it in person.

 

[PopCultKid]

Wow, I thought that this would last a couple of weeks. I guess I should've realized that this would be more popular that Midas since it is a main character and apparently this suit gets a lot of screen time. Glad I PO'd yesterday

I'd say whoever wants to get one still should have a good shot if you jump on the waitlist today. In another day or two, probably not....

man I hope I don't have to wait all the way til September to get my free one from HT

What's the point of winning a contest if you have to wait like everyone else?

You won one of these?!?! That's awesome! I never win s__t in those offers

With the mood I'm in concerning this, burning them is an entertaining thought .....

Where do you live brother? IDK why but I assumed you were from The States

 

[cofphoto]

It's hard to say that this is more popular than Midas, since we don't know how many of either figure was sold. I'm guessing there were a lot more Midas figures than this Cap figure.

 

[rocbolt]

Well shoot, Sideshow was supposed to set up an order for me to use some credit I had, so emailed them middle yesterday and I held off ordering this myself hoping they'd get to it a little faster and now its already waitlisted

Maybe if you call and explain what happened they'll be able to help you out. Worth a shot at least.

This is true; we don't know edition size on either. I'm just assuming that there are more of this Cap made for several reasons. One, because the mold for Midas was already made for the MK VII & BD so HT gets their money back and profits on the investment of that design with the combined sales of MK VII, MK VII BD & Midas. Aside from the boots, hands and gauntlets, everything seems to be newly developed for Cap (similar, but still different). I'd also imagine that HT would assume that the more iconic suit of a main character in an upcoming popular movie would sell more than a repaint of an armor that had 3 seconds of screen time.... but then again... there's no way to rationalize the Iron Man craze

Very nice to see us Canadians getting shafted again, wtf is up with that?

SS believes some customers are more important than others...it happens...other companies do it too...

Damn it, went to order but I can't get it in my country. This blows

SS believes some customers are more important than others....

I think people in the States realized they can do an easy flip to international customers. Could explain the sudden pick up.

...sure who doesn't want to turn $200 into $500...

Yeah in so many words they told me I am screwed. Unless the waitlist converts in the near future I'll probably lose what little credit I was offered for my broken War Machine too. Yay.

 

[Darth Zangetsu]

I missed the opportunity to get this one. I was kind of debating. I really want the SHIELD suit. Oh well, more money I can spend on other stuff i guess.

 

[The Mike]

I waited too long to pull the trigger on this. There was 60 available last night and I waited until morning and found it sold out. I threw myself on the WL although I want the Stealth suit more than this, the differences between this and the TFA version are enough to have me think that it's two different suits in the film or at least different enough to have on the same shelf

 

[aparedez89]

Good job man! My wife ordered this for me as a surprise but when the quantity started dropping to less than 100 I got panicky and she had to confess before I pulled the trigger on it myself.

you have a good wife then

No plot spoilers, but

Spoiler:

This is the suit he uses for the final quarter of the movie, and the one that sees the most action(In that, he does the most fighting in)

Wow, surprised this went to wait list so fast. Is that a record?

Maybe for a Cap figure it is.


I got the afternoon off work today and went to see the movie, then(On the way home), got asked by my Brother if i wanted to go and see it with him, so i saw it today twice, pretty much back to back.
It was a great movie and for those of you that haven't seen it, you are very much in for a treat.
I am very glad i managed to get this figure ordered.
