    I like the Cap. Great head sculpt. Are the heads vinyl though? I don't know if that was ever mentioned. They look too shiny too be vinyl.

        These are most likely prototype heads made of resin and hand painted. The suits are also hand made.
        Fresh, not from concentrate.

          It looks like we're finally going to get all of the major alter-ego characters. I'm looking forward to seeing Blake, Stark, and Banner. I really hope EMCE makes an Iron Man outfit with realistic removable armor. That would be soooooo cool!

            I wish I could buy the new Cap and pass on the repro of a fig I already own.

                      Very impressed with the Cap set! Love that there's the very distinct retro version and upgrade.

                      Though, I'm a little confused by Rogers' tan 'leg-warmers'...

                        WW2 Steve Rogers. The "leg warmers" simulate the heavy canvas leggings that were part of the US Army uniform in the first half of WW2. They would be replaced by boots in late 1943.

                        I love Wikipedia!
                        "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                              I'm not yet sold on this line.

                              Part of me really wants to dig these, but something is holding me back. Maybe it's simply the deluge of other offerings (albeit a much-welcomed deluge of course) and my interests are piqued elsewhere? I'm just not quite "there" with these.

                              Glad to see that they have generated a great deal of interest though.

                              The more figures, the merrier...I always say.
