    The Cap set definitely appeals to me more. I hope the look translates at the factory, because both hero suits are hand-stitched. It's hard to tell from the pic, but the vinyl for Cap's gloves in the modern version looks better than the crap Mattel used.

      That set looks really nice! Love the "correct" Cap figure.

        I think they did a very good jo on the modern cap, I also like the steve rogers

        I'm hoping that these will still be tweaked before they produce them. the original cap suit looks off to me.
        also the bodies look a little funky - I'm hoping it is just how they were posed or the way they took the pictures.

        I really want this marvel line to work. I love the dc and marvel megos - But I really want these marvel guys along with marvel guys they never made

        I pre-ordered the spidy set.
        I will no doubt get cap as well.

          non sticker shield is a must! IMO and it looks great and the correct size.

          love the modern cap suit - the belt loops are a real nice touch to this figure! really I'm not a nit picker - I'm grabbing this set for sure. the only tweek I would make on mondern cap if it was me making these is - I would have used the castaway flap boots for cap. those boots are real nice. I love them on my custom cap figures. it is the only thing I would have done different.

          I cant really get a good pic of the rogers head - would like to see a head on shot.
          but these look pretty good. there is real hope for this line. hope they go deep into it though I heard they might not. but we can always hope

            *sigh*

            ... could someone at Diamond please take a few minutes and pose the figures a little bit so the display looks cool?

                Love it---updated Cap looks awesome! I especially like the Steve Rogers figure: it looks very faithful to John Romita, Sr artwork. This is a homerun all the way around!

                    Anyone know what type of bodies EMCE's using for these figures?

                              I'd use the shorter boots like Conan's were, because Cap didn't have such tall boots.

                                That's a nice Cap. I like the Rogers figure, too. And the Parker figure looks better than in previous photos. Hope this line lives long and prospers, to borrow a phrase.
