3 Stars Scared look on New Caps Face??
The paint work is great but the sculpture of the face is not up to speed. I recommend this figure only because it’s the best there is of Cap out there…for now! The arms are rather skinny in porportion to the chest girth too! I would give this figure a 7.5 out of 10. It would have been less if the paint wasn’t so superb!
5 Stars New Cap figure= sweet!!!
Very happy with the quality of this figure. It’s just as great-looking ‘in person’ as it is in its promotional photo-which seems to be a rare thing nowadays. I’m not sure how durable it is, since all I have it doing is decorating my shelf. Cap comes with a base, pistol, shield(of course), canteen, and knife. My only ‘complaint’ is that there’s only space for either the knife or canteen on Cap’s utility belt, and they are a little loose when added. Also, Cap’s shield can only be fitted to his arm–it would have been nice to be able to fit it to his back as well, although now I’m just being picky I suppose. This was my first Marvel Select figure, and it won’t be my last.
1 Stars Capt America WITHOUT a mask!
I ordered this product thinking finally a Capt. America figure worth adding to my son’s large marvel collection. When it arrived it was a figure without a mask. Totally misrepresented on the website. My advice is that you check with the seller before ordering to be sure you are getting the right one. The rest of the figure was awesome but who wants Capt. America without the cool mask??
3 Stars Need Picture Change
The toy is as what was expected except for the unmasked (variant) we recieved. I was hoping it had the mask but my son doesn’t mind.
3 Stars Bucky Barnes
This Captain America from Marvel Select sports an excellent sculpt and paint application. Sadly though, the articulation is not on par with the recently released Hulk or Thor figures. This figure has no balljoints except in the shoulder. This makes it very difficult to find natural standing positions or action poses. What makes it worse is there is not cut in the thigh or swivels at the boot. So, this figure remains a slightly poseable statue. Marvel Select has really done well this year on a couple of figures and struck out on a couple. I hope they stick with the formula they used for Thor and Hulk. This Captain America figure would have been perfect with a few balljoints here and there. I recommend it for hardcore fans only.

Marvel Legends Transformers Crossovers - Wolverine
Built to match the toughness and ferocity of Wolverine himself, this battle suit is fast, scrappy, and able to take a pounding that would turn other mechs into scrap. Advanced repair systems fix most damage done almost instantly. In addition, the mech mode pops out claws sharp enough to rip through almost any armor. One look at this Wolverine hero’s pop-out claws and you’ll know that he’s ready for the toughest of battles. Convert the mighty figure from hero to vehicle mode to unleash a rugged rally truck that’s sure to flatten any enemy in its path!

1 Stars Terrible toy
We bought this as a gift for our 5 year year old son (the packaging stated this toy was appropriate for ages 5+.) My husband and I are both skilled at engineering /building projects, however, neither of us could get this toy to “transform” according to the instructions. I have gone so far as to take the effort to contact Hasbro directly to express our dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, we have one very unhappy 5 year old here at our house who just wanted a fun toy (and instead has ended up with a sad looking piece of plastic.)
3 Stars Had a heck of a time until I saw a video
This toy is well constructed, but the instructions to transform it were over 20 steps long. I had almost given up until I saw that some kind soul had posted a video up on Youtube which catalogs how to transform it. Once you know how, it is very easy to transform back and forth. So in the end, despite our initial frustration, we’re pretty happy with the toy.

2 Stars Piece of junk
This is a piece of junk. Gambit can’t even hold both his cards or his pole and the paint isnt great too. Trust me, and dont buy it
5 Stars Piece of junk? Please…
The prior review is garbage. Gambit is the greatest and this action figure is a lot of fun. It could use a little more articulation but it looks great none the less. Mine doesn’t suffer from any of the card or staff holding issues. Gambit is one of the coolest X-MEN characters ever.
