    They're all 4" figures in these new images man, you talking about the one fighting Red Skull? That's the Toy Biz Superhero Showdown version.

    I was referring to this Cap, the Chris Evans pic one. Looks good for a 4 incher (3 3/4''?) Are Hasbro doing any 6'' like the Walmart only 6'' IM2 figs? Cuz I might pick up one of those, I've decided to stop collecting 3 3/4'' inchers entirely. :(

    i'm counting the days, since they look more promising than the hard to find GL crap. Patriots of the World Unite - kastorskorner.com has a review of the K-Mart 3-pack, which made me stoked thinking they were already out, but they stated that they will be out in about 2 weeks, and it was JUST put online May 3rd.

    I'm not sure what the street date is, but I stopped into Target last night and entered the DPCI # for these guys and it came up as in stock in the back. A friendly worker pulled the case from the back and brought it to me. I bought the Battle Field comic version of Captain America. This was really the only figure I wanted from wave 1. For those who are looking foward to the new Winter Soldier, I looked at all 3 from the case and all of them had really bad facial paint apps. It's looks like he has a really bad spray on tan.

    I also didn't notice a, "Do not open before this date" written on the case, so maybe it won't be to hard to get workers to pull a case from the back for those wanting these early. Here's the DPCI # 087 06 2273

    I know this has been retitled the Captain America toy thread, but I noticed today there's a variant Odin toy with a gold eyepatch, more gray hair and a completely different deco for his armor. This has probably been noticed before, but thought I'd share. Not sure which one I want since I prefer the darker hair but want a silver eyepatch.

    I'll probably just go with the marvel select figure. To go with my 6" Walmart IM2 War Machine & Mark VI. Here is a pic:

    Wow. That's pretty damned great. If the poseability is better than the IM2 figures, I just may pick one of those up.
