I figured they'd lose the wings on the mask...Marvel has been itching it retroactively do away with those for awhile now....Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!Comment

Cap was a ww2 prophaganda costume plain and simple. He was supposed to be THE elite soldier, and essentilay a brazen one at that. I always liked the costume. If there are 4 costumes NOT to change it is Thor, Cap, Spidey and Hulk. every time they do, things get ugly and they turn back to the original anyway.Comment

This would be my guess, too. By the time he sees action in the Avengers movie, he'll have to get a more contemporary costume change. While I'm not in love with this new design (again, it's just a drawing - I'm waiting to see how this looks IRL), it does seem more practical for the time period (the whole movie takes place during WWII, right? Please correct me if I'm in err!).Comment

He looks like a patriotic riot control officer.
If the movie is decent, then I can live with this design. It certainly wouldn't have been my first choice.

In case anyone missed it, somebody slipped a link showing the actual costume (well..a drawing) in that sites reply sections:
Yfrog Image : yfrog.com/4wcapsuitjYou are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

Works for me looks more believable especially during the 40's Also Kirby designed the original to follow the Superhero boom that was happening during the time that he was drawing for KIDS not ADULTS.....He looks like he would fit in with the Boys if he WAS real during the War.......
Ultimates Cap is really Hardcore and more realistic.....IMO

Despite it's flaws, and there are many, the 1990 film got the costume correct. One of the people who commented in that thread said it right: There are no more iconic and simple hero costumes' than Cap's & Superman's. It's a case of throwing too much money at something. Best to stick with the basic design. See pics below of 1990 outfit. The best so far:

I have a very good Idea let's make a movie about Abe Lincoln, But no beard, in fact let's make him Spanish, with a zoot suit....
That's the equivlant of how I feel about the Ultimates, and the costumes.Comment

People going to see Captain America want Captain America. This conceptualized costume looks campy as h*ll. Why do they think the general public will find this garbage more appealing than the comic version? Why not do like they did with Daredevil and wrap him in a leather mask? This helmet is just ridiculous. H*ll let's put him back in the motorcycle helmet. Even THAT looks better than this. Jeez... I just knew they would screw it up.Comment

I was trying to place what he looks like, and I got it! he looks like a hockey warrior from "Strange Brew"Comment
