I think there's been plenty of great Cap figures, although I agree none of them are perfect. For Cap, you have several pretty good options. Face Off Cap is obviously the victor, although that may be a bit out of budget for most collectors. But then you also have Marvel Now Cap from the Winter Soldier wave, Series 8 Ultimate Cap, the Target 3-pack Cap, the other ultimate Cap that Hasbro did, ToyBiz Series 1 Cap and, of course, the new one just released. All pretty solid figures from what I've heard (although I don't own all of them).

I agree with you on the Iron-Man front that many of his figures aren't bulky enough, but he still has a solid offering out there for a variety of different armors and not all of his armors are meant to be bulky. You've got ToyBiz Series 1 Iron-Man, my personal favorite in my collection, then you have two updated versions of that armor with Hasbro, you've got Face Off Iron-Man, Extremis Iron-Man, Bleeding Edge, the Guardians of the Galaxy one, the series 8 Modern Iron-Man. I'm pretty sure there's several others that I'm forgetting, too. They're not perfect representations, but they're pretty damn good regardless.

You compare that to Black Widow. She only has 2 comic book figures. Her old one is junk by today's standards, and her 'new' one is incredibly expensive to get ahold of and she looks incredibly skinny next to the current lady Legends. She also doesn't have the updated articulation like the new hip joint or ankle rocker. She needs a new figure.
