    A Pair of Modified Captain Americas!

    A Pair of Modified Captain Americas!

    So I was inspired by EMCE's Pictures of their New Captain America from Comic Con.

    This Morning I grabbed a Pair of Captain Americas from the Bins and went to work.

    The Captain on the left:
    Is all Original Mego Type 2 Captain America.(except his star) I touched up his Wings, His A and his nose.

    Got out the needle and thread and made his correct sleeves, and added his proper belt.
    also up graded his boots and added the gloves. I used more of a flat red on his boots to be more in style as original Mego.

    Captain on the right:
    Got the head from Terry Wood - Not sure where he got it, or who painted it. - Thanks Terry
    The suit is a silk screen from Ed Naggy -Thanks Ed

    I modified it buy adding the Belt.
    added the boots & gloves. These boots are more bright and shiny red - but not use that will show up in the pictures.

    I made the shield.

    I wish EMCE would have used these type of boots on Capt. At the very least I wish someone would produce these again. I refuse to make a Captain America Custom with out them and they are becoming almost impossible to find

    Thanks for looking
    Enjoy!

                          for the 2 pack rogers - the head came from Bryan Bossart. Not sure if he made it but I'm sure he painted it. The army rogers - is a flash godon head from Austin - painted by Dave Mc, The modern version of Rogers was made and painted by Black Knight.
