    Captain action returns

    Round 2 Corp: Exclusive CAPTAIN ACTION Interview - Figures.com Forums

    It looks like just as with the retro line, that it is an exclusive via TRU and Diamond.

    Interesting to watch how well this does, hopefully it won't need to do ridiculously huge numbers to be considered a success. Although I'm sure a Marvel license isn't cheap.

    These look really sweet and the price points, though not super cheap, are actually lower than I was expecting.

            O man.... Caps looks great and Spidey has a real good look to it. On the website it comes also with a Steve Rogers and Peter Parkers face. A must have and really trying not to buy anymore toys.

              Incredibly cool. All I can say to Joe Ahearn and Michael Murphy is, "Great work guys! Everything looks perfect! I want them and will support this line. Just stay on top of TRU. Don't let them screw CA, like they did the Retro heroes." TRU has a well earned reputation for ignoring the customer. And I squirm when I read "TRU exclusive". That translates into non existing stock and poor customer service.

                Wow, those look great. Love the Kirbyesque Cap head. Looks like his boots are cast off the original CA Captain America boots from here.

                  Wow! The Spider-Man figure looks fantastic! I'm so glad to see someone finally decided to include his infamous "underarm" webbing. I always did think that was a very cool touch and added a lot to his "spideriness." Kudos!!!
                  sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

                        A Kirby Cap?! Romita Spidey?!

                        This is the Marvel toyline I've dreamed of my whole life...add to that the fact they've already had discussions with DC, and this could end up being the greatest superhero toyline EVER.

                          I'm assuming this is a 12 inch figure?

                            yes, these are 12" updates of the Captain Action dolls that Ideal made in the 60's and Playing Mantis redid in the late 90s.

                              Captain Action looks great! much better than I thought he would! the costume is great!
                              The Captain America uniform has the blue pants rather than the white ones the Ideal set had and Spider Man looks great too!
                              I have loved Captain Action ever since I first got him from my parents when I was 8!
                              I hope the new CA line really takes off and we get the DC sets too and Action Boy!
                              Looks great!
