Thanks. So much for Sideshow claiming their entire stock had both crooked A's and titled stars. Pitu should insist that they send him a different figure, even though they claim they all look like his.Congrats
I almost cancelled because all the defects, I am glad I stuck it out. amazing figure......bandito

Agreed. One thing I noticed is that the neck tends to creep up when turning it, so you've got to push it back down afterward. I've seen a lot of photos posted with giraffe neck syndrome and now I know why

That's definitely a good start, but I really hope this guy plans on adding more detail. The eyebrows or lack there of is bothering me as well as the harsh "lines" in that same area.

Received mine yesterday. The A is straight and the shield looks great 
Unfortunately the star is crooked
Since I have heard stories about other uniforms with poor stitching, I guess I'll just live with it. Didn't someone else on the board say they cut some stitches to straighten out their star?

A crooked star's not so bad, the bandolier covers that up easily
the star has "pegs" that go through the shirt and are glue in...i dont think cutting any threads would help to straighten it

I don't know if this is the first figure Hot Toys has given an adam's apple, but it's the first one I've owned that includes a pretty prominent one! For that reason, I've found that he can look awfully strange if you turn his head but leave his neck straight forward; luckily the neck itself can also be turned. It's a bit of a pain to rotate, but I find it gives a much nicer look if his adam's apple and chin are facing the same direction.

My son wanted me to post pics of his Cap, got to give him credit, he did a good job posing him.

I finally received mine today from Sideshow. The star is a little off, no big deal. There is a small shiny paint rub on the front of the helmet, which is seen as the light hits it at different angles. what is the deal with Hot Toys and the heads lately. I know some had this issue with their Superman figures and the new OC Batman figures. Will dull coat correct this?
Three HTs for Christmas, not too shabby!
