Wow, that looks amazing, definitely will be getting this to support such an excellent effort by GG, and the price is just right for me too!

I might get this. I have no Captain America in my collection except for the Bowen I'm going to sell.

Looks great save for the face which I think looks like Howard Wolowitz.

That looks awesome.. I also like the clear bases, puts all the emphasis on the statues.... I'll be Pre-Ordering this soon as it's up...

I agree the cloth sculpting is pretty awesome.... I prefer this then ill fitting outfits on statues.. Cough Cough Batman PF Cough Cough

I don't mind when they use material in some of the accessories on the statues but I'm just not a big fan of 100% cloth statues, sometimes they can end up looking more like dolls then a statue.

You must be watching to much Big Bang Theory , I don't see anything resembling Wolowitz in his face...

It's hard to tell what he truly looks like until we get a few more pictures from other angles.. but from this one picture he looks like a younger version of the actor... I would have to find some movie shots of him from that same angle to compare though..
