It was one the discussions with Whedon iirc. So much of the news goes by on my newsfeeders that I don't often remember who said what nowadays, unless I mark it to use the link.

It was either icv2, Hero Complex, CBR, or the other 15 on my feeder that's not in front of me right now.

But there was also the interview recently about cap that said something similiar about his winged mask. And how painted on wings wouldn't work for modern times that suggests he'll be getting some minor changes for avengers as well. Probably something more sleak for modern times since his WWII armored uniform doesn't really reflect modern shield capabilities. Keep in mind though, this isn't 616 marvel, but they also shouldn't be straying from some form of the main design either. As you said, recognizability, but at this point, I don't think that's as much a concern as previously since they keep swapping out actors. Plus it gives excuses for even more merchandising, instead of just re-releasing what was made the year prior that kids already have. Gotta have a reason for kids to buy whatever the avenger line figures are. (This doesn't mean I'm expecting bucky cap or head of shield Rogers, just enough differences to warrant a modified figure or new figure.) Here's an example of what I mean from the cap line http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...il&picture=out That costume as it is, will probably be streamlined moreso, no helmet, and tightened all around for Avengers since he's no longer a soldier in WWII, but now what'll be leading a 'super hero' team. So some of those gray straps may be faded out in favor of a more form fitting 'Go Team America' type patriotic feel.

Happy Hogan's gone possibly. (Favre no longer directing, his role as happy hogan still up in the air.)
New Hulk
New Bruce Banner
Mentioned alterations to Ironman
New Rhodes between IM1 and IM2.
I'm not even sure how much will change after cap and thor while avengers is filming this summer after they hit theaters, or for that matter for the avengers sequels.

Kind of makes me wonder if there'll be a new Thor with helmet or something for the Avengers as well. Though I'll be just fine with the helmetless one I picked as is. Gives him a more thunderstrike feel.
