This is the only pic with the shield supposedly on the right hand:

I actually like this look with the right-handed shield as well. Something regal about it.

Ordered! My only complaint with this piece is that I wish the red parts of his uniform were actually red instead of brown. This is more directed at the movie costume designers than IS. I know they almost always go for dark and gritty in movie designs, but even a darker maroon color for his gloves and boots would have been better. Not IS's fault.

I see it as a dusty effect because of the battle he is involved in.
A colorful suit won't fit with a bloody face and a broken shield.

I understand IS has tried to give us options but IMO this cap comes from a VERY SPECIFIC moment in the whole Infinity stones saga. He is fighting thanos and that is clearly what the statues represents.

You misunderstood me. I didn't say he should be colorful, and I get that he's dirty from battle, and IS did a great job of representing him as he was in the movie. I'm saying his boots and gloves should have been dark red, like the stripes on his abs. Not straight up brown or black. The dirt didn't change them from red to brown. My criticism is for the costume designers not IS.

Iron man is my favorite character but Cap/thanos are the only ones drawing me in. I don’t think that iron man piece or thor especially in the headsculpts and the pose for iron man are enough for me to get into this line as much as that cap is amazing.

I’m not going to get cap if I don’t get iron man

That’s weird, I’m not an Iron Man guy and I think that statue looks great. I like how it’s similar to the Bob Layton look. I agree about the pose, I would’ve preferred a more museum like pose myself.

Are these statues numbered? I notice they don't number the smaller statues...

See what you’re saying and I agree. Still, that’s not a deal breaker for me. This will finally fill the 1/4 Captain America void in my collection.
