    Nope. I read that they were loose this time, so I was shocked (and peeved) when I went to take mine out and it was stuck to the side again.

      I hope my second Cap set doesn't have the sticky tape. They must have stopped mid-production on Cap, so hopefully none of the Wolverine sets will be taped in.

        My box wasn't stuck in. Would it be better to get a couple of repro stars, or just use a few drops of fabric glue to secure the stars on his chest?

          Depends if you want the stitch in the middle of the star to show or not.

                I think everone posting here wan'ts Marvel remegos but some people have less money to throw away (putting my daughter thru college)and expect to get a shield that looks new and not all crinkled up .Some will take anything and others wan't a better product for 80.00. No hatred to my fellow collector's some of you guys are better customizer's
                than me , like ''The Bat'' who did a fantastic job of fixing up Cap.

                  The real tragedy of all these quality control issues for me is the Parker head that no longer looks like Romita's version. I was really looking forward to having that. This is why pre-ordering action figures and statues is a bad idea: finished products very often look nothing like the prototypes.

                    Hopefully Thor's package will look okay.

                            Anybody else get a repro Cap boot that looks like this? I thought it had the leg material all bunched-up under the boot, but it wasn't. It looks like it was heated up and stretched out of shape. Diamond told me they don't have replacement parts, and to return it to the retailer. But it would cost $11.55 to return it. How did this boot end up on a figure? Where is the quality control? I bought the set to split up and sell, but I can't sell the figure wearing this boot...

                              Wow, that's terrible! I will check mine tonight to see what it looks like. I haven't opened him, so hopefully I can tell while he is in the box.

                                I had not opened mine( thinking I might return it because of the shield )and did'nt even notice that at least one boot possibly both have weird grooves like the one
                                pictured above( although not as bad) but definitly noticeable! The other boot is turned a little in box and I can't see it as good.
