Reviews
Pros
- Over 32 points of articulation enhance posing options, including double-jointed elbows and knees, torso crunch, and neck tilt.
- Two hyper-realistic portraits (helmeted and unmasked Steve Rogers) with excellent facial expressions.
- The modern costume features a highly realistic fabric uniform with intricate sculpted accents and darker, military-style colors.
- Metallic, shiny shield with magnetic attachments for secure placement on the arm and back harness, although the magnet strength is noted as weak.
- Extensive accessories include multiple interchangeable hands, a knife with boot sheath, grenades with clip-on attachments, and a display base with an adjustable post.
- Articulated gauntlets with magnetic attachments for the shield enhance functionality.
- Baggy pants design facilitates better articulation and posing compared to previous versions.
Cons
- Some chain mail pieces appear loose and may detach over time.
- Minor paint imperfections noted on the shield and head sculpts, including small dots and nicks.
- Ankle pivot is limited; some users may need to work on joint flexibility to improve movement.
- Magnetic attachments for the shield and gauntlets are weaker than desired, making them prone to detaching.
- Shield size is considered small relative to the figure’s scale, affecting overall aesthetic.
- Tight fit of the knife sheath, with potential stability issues when swapping accessories like the belt pouch and canteen.
- Some stitching on the uniform is uneven, raising concerns about durability over time.
- Higher price point ($80) compared to other figures in the line may be a consideration for collectors.
