My Quantum Suit (or whatever we are calling them...SCIENCE!!!) Cap arrived yesterday, and having had a chance to goof around with him a bit today, here are a few thoughts.



The only accessory Cap comes with is his shield, which we've seen a hundred times already, although this one does differ in deco a bit, as it has an additional painted silver ring around the star that the previous shields did not. The suit is well sculpted and articulates pretty well, and while I was concerned with scale initially, it's really not all that much smaller than the Civil War/Studios/Winter Soldier Cap figures. The colors (or even the suit for that matter) isn't all that accurate to what we saw in the trailers, but it still looks good for what it is, and I do like the color palate they went with over the whites and blacks we saw in the final products.

The headsculpt is actually really good...and was probably my biggest surprise. It's not quite Evans from the Avengers, as that is what it's based off of, but it's generic enough that it can pass for it at certain angles, and the faceprint is expertly applied. Best of all, the blue is tinted just enough that it will work with the previous Walmart Avengers Cap, provided you have the darker tinted variant of that figure. The head also fits perfectly on that Walmart Avengers Cap, however you will still need to mod it, as it sits VERY high on that figure's neck.



All in all, this is one of those figures that is much better in person than the promotional pics we've seen give it credit, and while it's not so bad, it's actually better than I expected. However, in the end, this is gonna be a figure that you're gonna lean one way or the other depending on your personal tastes and whether or not you gotta catch em all.

It’s funny how a couple well taken pictures can change my mind. Great shots!
