Hopefully by Simonson Thor, the armored look is specifically what's being discussed. That look's only action figure has been a Minimate.
Ah, I forgot about that costume. I didn't realize many people liked it.

It's a Simonson design, which is always much-beloved, plus it'll fit a specific era of Avengers membership in a display.

I managed to get the MS Mr Fantastic and Invisible Woman- these have been hard to find online in the UK, but managed to pick up from a rare visit to a comic shop. Also ordered Human Torch- initially, I was regretting selling the MS Thing a few years back, and considered getting a new one to complete the team. But the more I thought about it, the more I realised that previous MS Thing wouldn't really fit in- I then remembered that I had the Hasbro Walmart Thing without the accompanying Marvel Legends team (as I didn't get a chance to complete the team as they weren't released in the UK).
To my eyes, the Hasbro Thing (especially with the wash, a rarity for Hasbro these days) fits in both in terms of scale and style with the MS team.
Love me that Simonson armored Thor! Add a Thor Frog!
Anyone miss those amazing 4 figure box sets MS made for Disneystores? Spidey w foes and Comic GOTG? Where there any others?

I don’t even remember them, I must have skipped them because they were figures I already bought individually. Were there figures included exclusively? Like you could only get them in the 4pk?

To my knowledge, they've never gatekept anything exclusive behind one of those box sets; all figures were sold separately too. I'm also reasonably confident the GotG were never packaged together and he's just misremembering.
Picked up the new Cap figure yesterday at a comic shop. Only my second Marvel Select figure and my golly he is fantastic! all the accessories and the options they give you with him. My only complaint is his knee joints are very loose after just a few poses but not so much that you can't get him to stand. Hey MSword Cap really needs some villains to fight like Red Skull or Baron Zemo pretty please!

Not sure what your first Select was, but I’d recommend Taskmaster. He’s a great match in terms of quality and accessories as a foil for Cap.
It was Ultron. I was using him with Legends but I got rid of him when Hasbro made one. Thanks for the recommendation! I will have to hunt Taskmaster down!Picked up the new Cap figure yesterday at a comic shop.

Still waiting on Entertainment Earth to get Cap in...
Oh and I'll agree that you should hunt down Taskmaster. I think the figure is one of the best Selects ever in terms of detail and accessories. Decent articulation too!

GOTG were released as single packs for Disney. We did a Spidey-Electro 2-pack, but they were also released individually. The only four-pack was Spidey, Goblin, Lizard and Agent Venom, I think? I believe only the last two were exclusive and they were all released as singles. The MS Wikipedia page breaks down everything.
I absolutely love this new Captain America figure. So many echos of John Byrne, Mike Zeck and even the later 90's artists who drew Cap during the Heroes Return era like Garney, Kubert and Jurgens.plus all of the extra looks and accessories really take this over the top. this is a Cap figure for the ages. You've really outdone yourselves with this release.
My third copy of Cap arrived, via BBTS. I got this one just to display unmasked, with the lowered cowl, round shield on his back, utility belt on. Also got my second copy of Crimson Dynamo. I think this one might go with ML, but he towers too much.
