It's like they couldn't make up their mind what they wanted this to be, it's classic, modern, MCU and their own designs all mashed into one that imo just ends up looking like a mess. |
Wholeheartedly agree.

Cap version 2 !?
First I'm hearing about this, I mentioned a while back that they should make another Cap but in true classic style, I'm hoping this is what this new Cap is.

Why does it look so skinny and short in comparison to the body sculpt? Weird.

The arm being short is probably due to the angle he is in, looks almost as if the arm is on an angle and not straight out. Now, the Skinny part?well I have no answer for that.

Negative. This is true to the comics. IronMan 149 it is covered that Tony had a birth defect that gave him stunted bone growth in his right arm.
I thought they messed up and had his Left arm with the birth defect. Looks like they got it right though.
Can?t wait for this. I wish I didn?t miss out on Captain America. Thor is amazing and this will be a fantastic addition in the lineup. 1:3 is big. But if you?re gonna do it- Museum style is the way!

What?! I'll need to see proof of this...
If this is in fact true ...then I will admit ...I totally missed this fact.
Nevertheless ...it still looks ridiculous that his arm is sculpted this way. The proportions are off. And normally, XM does not care if they are comic accurate, but they went out of their way to be comic accurate with his "stunted growth right arm"?! ...If this is indeed true. That is the craziest thing to be comic accurate about.

My opinion this falls drastically short when it comes to representing the classic Iron Man?? The knee caps kill it for me they need to start from scratch. As it is it will not make it to my collection.
