Captain America: Brave New World Legends

Lieutenant Joaquin Torres, just to let you know.

Hulk is bigger than I expected.  Only had gladiator Hulk to compare to at the moment.  Even though it doesn't look like Ford, I really like the head sculpts.  There are common issues with both Hulk's legs: the thigh-to-knee joint doesn't flex at all and if you rotate the calves it's really tight and puts 2 stress marks on the front and back of the lower leg.  These issues don't really bother me too much.

The other 2 are fun to play with as well.

Though I might regret buying these, but I'm really digging them for the most part.

My Target stocked all 3 deluxe figures after their reset.

Had a good amount of each, but only left with Red Hulk.

Hopefully the other two hang around long enough and hit lower prices...

Spotted the same at my Target. Just one of each Joaquin and Thunderbolt, but two of Sam.

So far I've only found Falcon and the generic promo photo on his package is so odd - that's not Danny Ramirez. This happened on Green Goblin recently and another I'm blanking on, but they know the actor playing the role - is it a money thing? Approval hiccup? Easier?

I'm guessing with Goblin it was to avoid any of the above, but Danny is under a current contract.

The clip on Cap's shield is particularly fragile this time so watch out.  My first one had the swirly-twirly molded injection lines on the clip, and yep, the first time I gently stretched it around the wrist it began to break along the swirly-twirly line.  My son finished the job off the next day.

I got a replacement and that one also has a clip with TWO swirly-twirly lines so I'm more afraid of this one than the first that immediately broke upon its intended use.  If you're reading this Dan PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ask the engineering design team to come up with a new alternative to those clips, or at least stop using injection-molded plastic for the clips.

I let my kids' friends play with my Legends, and it's usually fine.  But back when Power Princess first released they had a new friend over, and the very first thing he did was try to put that shield on her wrist and it immediately broke.  My kids all ooo'ed and aaa'ed telling him what I can only imagine was stuff like "OOOOO MY DAD'S GONNA KILL YOU"--which is an exaggeration because they know I'm not actually a tyrant about this stuff which is why they think saying stuff like that is funny--but that was plenty to inspire that kid to stay away from my room ever since lest he incur my wrath due to the fragility of those shield clips.  😩 

I've had these figures for weeks and have had no inclination to open them. I guess I need to see the movie, but again, I'm in no rush. Usually for a Marvel movie, I've preordered tickets by now. I'm just so lukewarm on the franchise that I might wait for reviews?

Yeah, I'm definitely worried about how this one does at the box office. Not hearing much about it at all on social media. I know the movie had significant reshoots and is a holdover from before Marvel Studios started to overhaul their projects. 

Anyone else having no fun with Cap's wings staying on and then realize you had the wings on the wrong sides?

Just me?

Glad I held onto the extra unmasked Mackie head - thankfully, Hasbro made it compatible.

@ru1977 they called him Captain Torres at one point in the movie. Not sure if that promotion happened before or after events of the film though.

For what it’s worth, I really liked the movie, although some inconsistencies are kinda noticeable. You can tell it was due to reshoots or other marvel projects. Honestly this is a movie id like to have a director’s cut of- show me what they intended to show us originally.

For those who haven’t seen it yet, there is only one post credits scene. No mid-credits.

Can anyone with Falcon confirm his visor/top of mask can be popped off the face? I read online it was designed to be popped on and off back on for a more unmasked look.

@supreme_d Awesome, I appreciate when characters get promotions as the series progresses.

I'd love if Marvel started doing directors or extended cuts. Marvels is the first one that jumps out to me. But I'd also love an alternate cut of IW and Endgame where they use the plot of Banner and Hulk coming together during the IW battle. All you'd have to do is change some dialogue in Endgame.

So I posted in the wrong thread earlier. The movie was a lot of fun, and I am happy I got the three figures from the movie. The flight combat scenes were very cool, and the Red Hulk fight was great. I really like the helmet designs for Cap and Falcon. Falcon-Cap’s fighting style is very cool. 

Falcon-Cap’a shield is extra fragile. My kids mostly broke the clasp, although it’s still hanging together despite being fractured. Otherwise the figure is very cool. Love the wings. 

Those wings are the most tempting part, though I also like that he has a helmet now. It makes way too much sense for Sam to wear a helmet when flying around like that. but I'm holding out for the deluxe Falcon figure from the F&WS show rumor to be true. I love that look for him, and I'm finally down to one version of everybody, so I would enjoy getting rid of the IW Sam and have the F&WS version, even without a helmet.

I am starting to think maybe Leader was coming, but the redesign killed it. Hope I am wrong though
