    Plastic dog vomit.

    That's all I can say about this sampling of Hasbro's new Captain America movie figures. I don't know what I like more...the horrible sculpt, the non likeness...huge forehead, or lazy eye.

    Looks like Doogie Hauser got into the Super Soldier formula.

      I'd rather have some plastic dog vomit, thank you.

      Boy, in the world of Ugly, this would win the Emmy Award.
      Are you sure it's not a cheap bootleg?

          doesn't Chris Evans have likeness approval?

              Yes. "Here Mr. Evans...take a look at your action figure after you put our new...ahh...awesome glasses on."

                  Bootleg companies should sue them for ruining the fine art of making crap figures...

                    Ya know, I can understand that a junky production piece comes out bad because of cost cutting in the factories, but...

                    Look at what Hasbro had to work with.

                    NOTHING about this design screams Captain America. I bet If you were to show this image to 100 random people on the street, nobody would ID it as Cap. And if I were a kid, this figure would not be my buddy toy that I'd want to take everywhere.

                    So yeah, they made a crappy toy. But I fault the film designers for providing crappy DNA, and for blanching the stars and stripes out of Cap (probably to appeal to a worldwide market).

                      To be fair, that design is straight outta Marvel Comics during that period when Bucky was Cap.

                        Doesn't matter. The modern aesthetic is 50% of the pukey-ness.

                          Wow. Looks more like Will Arnet than Chris Evans.
                          It's all good!

                            Mego's slightly off-kilter eyed Cap looked more like Evans than this guy.
