MAJOR SPOILER BELOW

Since they killed him off yet again in Fear Itself #3 released today... Poor Bucky in my opinion he was a much more interesting Captain America and brought more humanity to the do no wrong character Steve Rogers portrays. We shall miss you Bucky.

Found Crossbones and Red Skull at Target today!

Ronin11 · 06-01-2011, 09:53 PM

Found Wave 2 in Modesto(TRU). No CB or RS. The hunt continues.

Jason Abbadon · 06-01-2011, 09:59 PM

I doubt he'll stay dead at all- Valkerie is right there, standing over him as he dies- and Bucky died fighting an asgardian- and honorably.
I'm thinking he goes to Valhalla, rounds up all the fallen heroes there and returns with them to kick this Serpent guy's ass!

I haven't read Fear Itself yet. I'll wait 'till its all done then get the collection. But from what I know about it, that sounds completely logical, however, if that doesn't happen, who do you think or like to see pick up the shield in Buckys absence?

With that being said, you think Hasbro would be fast enough to make a figure of this new Captain America if a new one comes into play?

Actually Steve Rogers is going to go back to being Captain America this July.

Confirmed? I need source sir! Lol. I personally think that's a silly way to go, action figure wise. In the MU line we are still waiting for the release of Captain Steve Rogers figure. I don't know, I just prefer Rogers in his current attire/role. I think Falcon or Patriot should go for the Cap mantle.

Oh wait...is this in reference to the movie? Oh boy I walked right into that one XD

Here he's returning back to his role as Captain America with his own new book starting with issue number one. The current Cap book is going to be converted into Captain America and Bucky and it's going to chronical their WWII adventures. I for one would have much rather Bucky remain Cap if anything I could see the possibility of Buck somehow living and taking Steves current role in the MU since he's way better at the espionage game but damn it sure does suck because I love Steves current duds myself.

Steve is Cap again and the Captain America comic is re-starting from #1 in July- both coincide with the movie's release. It's supposed to be a "jumping on" point for new readers.

So yeah, we get a great Buckycap figure just in time for him to die and an upsoming Steve Rogers figure three months after he's no longer in that costume!
If nothing else, I was thinking of buying an extra Buckycap and a wooden square stand, a can of Flecstone and making a memorial statue.
Easy enough.

The Steve Rogers figure will still be great to buy and pop off his head and put that onto a spare Cap body for the "unmasked look".

Oh. Well thank you for posting source, sorry for not taking your word. I don't even know what to think about this personally... Oh well, it is what it is.

Hell, think of how I feel! There's an ongoing storyline in the cap comics with Bucky trapped in a russian gulag, while Natasha, Steve and Sharon try to spring him....it has two more parts to go and THIS happens in the fear Itself title, making reading the next issue pointless in the extreme- and my having bought the past six issues even moreso!

Marvel really blew their timing on this one for readers of the cap title.

Jmacq1 · 06-02-2011, 03:55 AM

Toys are rarely, if ever, going to be able to fully keep up with the developments in the comics. Marvel Universe has already done a far better job than most lines with putting "modern" versions of various characters out in a somewhat timely fashion (Bleeding Edge Iron Man, Iron Patriot, and "Commander Steve Rogers" in particular).

Most folks pretty much (correctly) guessed that Steve would be back in the Cap role and costume permanently around the time the movie hits. I doubt Bucky stays dead though...there are still other glimpses of the future that we've seen in the MU where Bucky was still alive, albeit back in the Winter Soldier role. Seeing as the "Fear Itself" event is a magic-based event and they've already hinted that Thor will supposedly die as well, I'm betting a big ol' "reset button" gets hit at the end or something, because I'm pretty sure they're not killing Thor right after his movie and a relaunch of his own title.

I stand corrected & Red Skull & Crossbones will BE MINE!!!!!! btw chekc teh disney stores guys they get some gems as always

agentsands · 06-02-2011, 11:07 AM

Spoilers!

Wow, so Bucky dies!? I just finished reading Avengers #6 earlier this day. The one with the Kang versus Ultron story arc. Future Hulk and Iron Man said something about Bucky's fate... is this connected to the Fear Itself events? I haven't started reading that arc yet. Kinda fcked up indeed.. getting a good Bucky Cap figure and an upcoming Commander Rogers.. damn.. major bummer if true..

neatogecko · 06-02-2011, 01:37 PM

Scored Red Skull and Crossbones at the Disney store today. Unfortunately they were like $9.50 each.

I picked up one extra of each. If anyone is interested in them shoot me a pm.

Optimus Vader · 06-02-2011, 04:39 PM

Kung-PAO!!

I got these at TRU today. Their Cap pegs were less than half full (all w1). As I'm walking out one of the employees asks if I'm finding everything ok, so I ask if they have more Cap figs, she does her thing and it turns out there was one single unopened case of them in the back. She offers to get it for me, it was w2, done.

Colder Soldier · 06-02-2011, 05:04 PM

Crossbones is so my dude.

Tomorrow. Don't let me down TRU.

nomad1632 · 06-02-2011, 06:21 PM

Ill be hunting this weekend!

Optimus Vader · 06-02-2011, 07:06 PM

Crossbones is the shit.

I think this is my favorite MU movie line so far.

Damn I need that! I dont care so much about the Skul as I do Crossbones!
Check out his oneshot- it's called "Captain America and Crossbones" but Cap's only in it for a flashback where Crossbones shot him in the back.

It's really great- explains his motivations and why he is how he is. Brutal story too.

agentsands · 06-02-2011, 10:19 PM

^Is that the one where he was sent into an island to retrieve a kid?

Jason Abbadon · 06-02-2011, 10:22 PM

Yes- that's the one. I really loved it- very atmospheric and moody (and I read it on a rainy day, like in the story).
His recent stint on the Thunderbolts was excellent as well (same creative team as the oneshot I think).
