I like the secret wars cap only because of the lighter shade of blue they used. Uber muscle cap from the comic series line doesnt fit in well with the rest of MU.

Is Bucky not an option? If he is I'd get the movie line Bucky and that's that... Bucky Cap and Crossbones are two gems from the Cap movie line.
If you ask me, the only "classic" Cap looking Cap that's worth a damn in the Deluxe version that came in the second wave, with the blue glider. It's still not great, but I think this one looks a little less shitty to me. Most of them, including the US Agent, look like Dollar Store ko's to me.

Yeah for me Bucky isn't an option, though the figure looks sweet, I'm not a fan sorry if that offends any of his fans. and yeah to answer one posters question this topic is in regards to marvel universe size figures

I went with the K-Mart 3 pack Cap in the front row of my sig. The blue is dark but he is not skinny like every MU fig. Don't get me wrong the MU Caps have there purpose. But when you look at the MU Caps and Iron Mans next to the movie versions of them you have to go with the beefier movie styling. I know the limited shoulder and wrist articulation is a bummer but scale wise they work. It also sucks having to replace several characters when they inevitably make better versions of characters.

I completely agree with you, Colder Soldier! I think they should use the new Commander Rogers to make a new, awesome Cap figure.

Get ready for picture HELL!!!
Here is a shot of six basic Cap figs, 3 MU and 3 Movie for comparison. The Movie figures are standing just slightly in front, but we all know they're a BIT shorter. Left to right it's MU WWII Cap, Movie line K-Mart 3-pack Cap, standard Secret Wars, Movie Parachute Cap, MU Ultimate Cap and Movie line Ultimate. ![]() A straight up comparison shot of the Ultimate Caps. And I'm sorry, there's just no way Twiggy McBaby-head on the left is better! ![]() Action Jerks! ![]() More of those... ![]() MU camp group shot (just missing the most recent SDCC Cap and the re-pack Cap with Wolverine.) ![]() Movie camp (not gonna buy all of those...) ![]() And my personal favorite, freakishly, is K-Mart 3-pack Cap. He DOES feature Torso artic, has a faded denim-ish paint job and a wicked burly man-head! ![]() ![]() |

Yeah... just wish that K-Mart version was a lighter shade of blue to match the comics better!

The lighter color looks far less bad-ass though. If you want a lighter blue, get the Heavy Artillery. It's the same exact figure with a lighter paint app.

In the pics it is hard to see if the head wings jut out from the head or if they are flat against, let me know if they stick out or not please and thank you

The head wings do indeed protrude! Go full size on the movie camp pic. Paratrooper Cap's stick out the most, with 3-pack Cap maybe being the most acceptable.
And yeah to the bad ass darker colors! |

Have to disagree. I prefer little head MU Cap by mile to stocky movie Cap. Same goes with all MU Cap figs. They are a million times better IMHO. I even prefer MU Winter Soldier. I only give movie props to the Red Skull, Crossbones and Bucky Cap.

I like aspects of both but it just seems outright retarded that Hasbro wouldn't just make a proper classic Steve Rogers Cap already.
MU Cap = too scrawny, I don't care how much better the articulation is. SCRAWNY! CAP MOVIE LINE = where the hell are the elbow swivels on the classic Caps? Some don't even have wrist articulation. Why is Bucky the only Cap with decent all around articulation? I am in agreement with everyone who has stated that we need a new Classic Cap with the Steve Rogers Super Soldier build and articulation.

I still like the invaders cap. I agree with the k-mart cap looking really good build wise, but I also agree he should be a lighter blue. Maybe this heavy artillery one is the real gem then?

I'll say again that I prefer the Ultimates Captain America and think he is the best representation so far but wouldnt be surprised to see a much better Cap released next year. At least thats what i hope for.

About time someone did a Cap comparison. I think I tried at one point but wound up getting rid of some of them.

Ick. That figure both sucks and blows. I really was looking forward to the KMart 3 pack, especially for the Red Guardian Russin figure, but it was disappointing for the most part. Stocky short figures. I'd love if they made an MU version of him along with the remaining figures (Ursa Major, etc.)

All that you just wrote and linked you could have just told what the acronym stood for. So I refuse to search google for it. So I'll just think you are saying "I click kick."
