Any of the movie line (particularly comic series) beats the early MU hands down.
They finally nailed it with the Bleeding Edge IM.

The new Heavy Artillery Captain America is damn near perfect- dead on with the comics look and far superior and better muscled than the MU Cap while still being the same height- making Cap in scale with Thor (and close to the Bleeding Edge IM which is slightly small).

Gotta go with -Cap:TFA Winter Soldier and Bucky Cap over the MU versions (though it's a close one with Winter Soldier).

I'm in the minority here but I love the comic pack Spider Man figs- they're physiclly smaller than the other MU figs (making for a nice scale look- Peter should be smaller than Cap!). The figs pose well and look great next to the bigger figs- you have Black Costume Spider (comic pack) fighting Rhino (from the otherwise sucky Spidey line) nad you've got an swesome match up!
I feel you on most of that. All the early MU Classic Iron Men were crap. So was Cap. It's weird how the movie Cap figures are the same height as most MU, but they're so stocky it makes them look shorter. That's a good thing. I like Spidey relatively thin as well (shout out to all us sinewy guys) but they CP Spidey's are kind of long (tall). No big deal really though.

Oh. You said xforce in your description. That fig does have a pretty good, yet weird expressioned head sculpt. Those early MU Wolverine bodies are just soooo far out of scale...
