Custom #:80053

Base Figure:MIS/MU/CATFA/CATWS Capt. America
Height:4.00 inches
Ever since Hasbro released the Marvel Universe Capt. America using the modern buck, I've always made him my default Capt. America in my display. However, it does look too classic for me. Not that it's bad, but I've always wanted to customize a more modern looking Cap for my main shelf. So here's what I did.

I patterned the look after the Ultimate version, since I wanted it to look more real and tactical.

Recipe:
Head - Retained the original head of the MU/MIS Cap, and sanded off the wings and added chin straps.
Torso - I used the MU Ultimate Cap body since I wanted him to have scales.
Lower Arm - Got these from the CATFA Ultimate Cap figure.
Belt - From a GI Joe figure
Upper Legs - Retained the ones from the MU/MIS Cap
Lower Legs - I used a combination from the MU Ultimate Cap, then I glued on Steve Rogers' boots from the Winter Soldier line.

I assembled and painted them afterwards, and here's how it turned out.

Nice custom! One question though, how do you attach the shield to his back? Did you use the black straps that came with the shield or did you put a magnet somewhere there?

sorry for the late reply, that was just a sticky tack but I'm planning to add magnet to it when I find one.

Wow. I am not a Captain America fan, really, but I absolutely love this design. The changes look so simple, yet enhance the figure ten fold. Beautifully done!

1:18 fanboy here and I love this! My son has several MU and similar scale Cap variants and I'd prefer to play with this one later today when we do our battle . Looks better than any standard figure in their line and good job on colors, not the lighter blue we're used to seeing, your colors are darker and seem to provide the perfect tone and round out the figure better imo.
