    Steve Rogers & Captain America 2-Pack 2.0

    Ok Kids - Last One for today (though I hope to finish one or 2 tomorrow) Another set that was sitting here ready to be bashed. I was just waiting on a cap suit and was lucky to get one on Thursday from Almitysufx - Thanks Ed!



    So here we go: Steve Rogers & Captain America 2-Pack 2.0



    Ever since making my first one I had wanted to upgrade this 2 pack.

    You can see the original one here:

    Captain America and His Alter Ego Steve Rogers 2 Pack Steve: Flash Gordon head from the Doc - Painted by Dave Mc -Thanks Dave Suit is from CTV Toys Awesome Card backer from Toyroom - Thanks Anthony Captain America is a type 1 Head and suit - I just put them on a type 2 body I just updated the suit to have the correct



    This time around I switched things up a little. I upgraded Steve Rogers. He Now sports this awesome Bryan Bossart Head (I think this was originally an Aquaman head - But his wavy hair style is perfect for Steve )


    So its Bryan's Head and Paints (Thanks Bryan!)

    The Body is now a Doc Mego Swivel Arm to make him more bulked up.

    The Suit and Belt is CTV. I also tried to display it more like the card this time around. I think it looks better this way.


    Now on to the Captain

    Head is from Austin - Thanks Austin!
    Body is the same swivel arm by Doc mego.
    Painted by Dave McCormmick - Thanks Dave! It is painted the proper Blue (no Black and has the correct eyes)

    I went with the Silk screen suit for this one - Mostly because it just looks better with the deeper blue and the scales. This is one of Ed's Best suits (IMO) Ut really pops in color and just screems Captain America for some reason. It is really finished off nice with the Cast Away red flap boots and red CTV gloves.


    The shield is mine - Normally I use a button backer - which is a pinch smaller than the front. It tends to get more bubbles - but I think it is better. This time around I was out of the back, and had only a front piece. So I go less bubbles but a little more clear around the red stripe than I liked. Something I will switch next time around - I was just so happy to finish it that I just stuck him to the card anyway.


    and the Awesome card is from Toyroom - Thanks Anthony! without him I would not own any 2 packs - which is like 1/4 of my collection now. They seem to be multiplying on their own LOL!


    Thanks for looking

    Enjoy!

      That's how Captain America should've been made. Nice job.

                  Because Hasbro has no common sense!
