..man.. this line might be the worst sculpted Hasbro line in this scale.

I freely admit that it's been a long time since my last sculpture/anatomy class, but I'm pretty sure that if your piece's hand has only slightly less mass than its head, you screwed up. Actors are usually pretty small and weird-looking in person, though, so maybe the guy playing the Falcon really does have a toddler-sized head on an adult body.

It's far from perfect, but this picture doesn't make it look THAT bad...

I think a Wayanscord head and some goggles might work better.

The unmasked Cap looks like he was designed by Rob Liefeld while given the Leader's (Hulk villain) humongous forehead.

Got My 2 Falcons from HTS over the weekend. Switched heads with my custom version using the Wayans head. Was going for this look for Falcon,

Reomoved the wings on version, since the wings are permantely attached.

Torso down, its the typical ariculation in the Cap line. But he has swivel wrist, swivel upper arm and shoulder articulation, but does have the Mattel elbow ariculation.

Thanks for sharing the info about HTS having these in stock, you know like back when they actually still had them in stock. ;)

Was NOT Impressed at all with the STEALTH SUIT Captain figure.

I ended up making my own.

Falcon is hitting Target, saw 3 today and they're on sale for a $1off.

I was finally able to snag a Falcon figure over the weekend and I was pleasantly surprised. The figure is a lot better than I was expecting (but then again, I had really low expectactions). The lack of waist/torso articulation is the only thing I foud to be disappointing. The lack of a double-knee joint and ankle articulation isn't that noticeable to me. The arms have decent articulation and the wings don't look silly at all. No side-arm weapon is a drawback, but at least both hands are molded to hold a gun. Luckily, I have tons of guns in the spare parts bin. Anyone have any suggestions on what to arm Falcon with? I kind of like the look of him dual-welding MP5's from the Cobra Shock Trooper for now, but wouldn't mind to see what you guys have to say.

I believe he wields a couple of mini-Uzis in the film. The Hot Toys figure shows they are mounted to slides on his wrists.

I armed my Falcon with 2 of Marauder's Mac10/11's.
