    ^^^ I don't think it's dead, so much as pushed back since Round 2 acquired the DC License. I would not be too discouraged. I'm sure if business continue to run as it is, this character will see daylight.

    Infinite Hollywood: Captain Action TRU Basic (Variant) Review

    Plenty of comparison pics and such in the review. With more Captain Action on the way!

    Another quality review. Love the detailed photos and the side by side comparisons. And I have to hand it to you. You are far more observant than this old fart. I have probably seven of the new Caps from the initial run and it never occurred to me to look at the latest offerings for differences. Great eyes! And not to get ahead of you, but I guess it's worth noting the officially announced alternate CA-Arctic Adventurer, also has the silver belt. So if it's the belt you want, you can also go that route. This was educational as well as entertaining. I'll need to start paying closer attention. Looking forward to your next review.

    Always nice to come back nine or ten months later and play catch up...

    Saw a huge run of these in OH. I initally bought the Loki because it's damn cool, but returned it when I realized it didn't have his staff.

    About a hundred Simonson Thor's but not one Kirby.

    Very disappointed in the Red Skull news.

    Round 2 should take a page from Matty's playbook and try for small online releases.

    I have no interest in Wolverine...

    ...but an Ant-Man/Giant-Man set would sell out in a heartbeat since the scale would fit Mego perfectly.

    Or a classic Nick Fury. F Sam Jackson. I cannot stomach Ultimate Fury anymore.

    I could see a stripped CA + exclusive suit for $30 as selling out on a regular basis, as long as it fits the Silver Age motif.

    yea i just found out why i havent found any, it was because lame TRU doesnt have the arctic version under "Captain Action" but under "Marvel Comics Classic Cover Series Figure- Arctic Adventurer" so luckily i found a TRU nearby and picked one up today

    Thats a Ton of CA ....
    Only a Couple Dr. Evil's Here.
    Seeing that Much CA on the Shelves scares me ..., I hope it moves, so more can be made, and not put On Clearance, like Everything Else I see that Much of .
