These understandably flew under the radar (pun intended) a bit due to the sheer X-Men hype, but I think they both look pretty good. Happy to finally have a comic SamCap with proper wings, and I always liked that Steve design, even if Secret Empire is pretty trash.

It's a little funny that Hasbro kinda threw in the towel on the reveal of these, seeing as how they got screwed over with Cap 4 delaying a year, making these tangential tie-ins into just exclusives.

I like both of these. I bought a third-party wing upgrade set for Falcon Cap a long time ago, but this new version does look great. 

Hydra Cap is a must-have. I liked that suit in Secret Empire, although I liked Hydra Cap’s final green and gold armor the most. This Cap figure looks really nice, with the engineering from the Ultimate Cap figure.

Definitely picking up both of these but Falcon has all my excitement. Sam is an all-time favorite character, and I've been itching to get his Captain America look since I abandoned his wingless figure years ago. Really happy to see him coming soon!

Really like these two. Been wanting a Sam Wilson Cap, and I've always liked that Hydra Cap design.

Hydra Cap looks great! Lots of comic accurate costume details.

Cap looks great.  I know this is a weird hill to die on but I'm only interested in him if his shield has a strap+grip combo instead of the usual weak plastic wrist clip.  I'm guessing from his hand rotation in OP's picture that it will be the usual clip.

I actually kind of hate how much I like the look of Hydra Cap's suit. I really wish it wasn't solely used for an evil version of him. Would've made a figure of it worth getting.

A look at the backpack piece on Cap.

I like Sam's wings. Wings from Wakanda. So great!

Received Hydra Cap yesterday. It’s a really nice figure reusing the limbs from Ultimate Cap. All new torso with ball/socket ab pivot. The shield is nice but that antiquated hinge clip has got to go. I thought he could stab things with it, so the point of the shield could point down, in the same direction of his hand to his arm. It’s perpendicular to that, making the hinge off center when it plugs into his back. Enough to be annoying. That’s the biggest flaw. Paints are sharp, particularly in that face print, which looks even better on him than Ultimate Cap.

Evil really has the best costume designers.

Yeah the Hydra Cap I received has some outstanding paint details but I wished the shield would have come apart as did the shield that came with the 4 inch figure of him. I also wished Hasbro would have addressed the height problem of the Sam Wilson Cap by giving him some new taller boots. I'm going to try to address that issue by giving him the boots from an extra Ultimate Cap I have. Hopefully it works and I won't have to change out the lower legs because I suck at painting, lol.
