I can agree the Walker suit can be just different enough to either love it or hate it.
I will say for me, that for every thing they did right in making a modern version of the CA suit look good, Hasbro took every shortcut in the book to release the US Agent version.
lazy repaint: check
less desired version placed in the wave: check
no unmasked head: check
i would hope Hasbro will curb these practices due the price increase. My days of buying inaccurate designs are over
The unmasked head is indeed an excellent rendition of Wyatt Russell but overall, this figure is just meh to me. I'm sure some of that's due to the limitations of the "alt Cap" costume itself. Can't be a straight copy of Cap's outfit, but can't be too flashy either 'cause its for the modern era. Nevertheless it doesn't move me.
This John Walker Captain America is a very cool, underrated figure. Also a little surreal having someone else as Cap in my collection.
The likeness is spot on, one of Hasbros best face printings. Also like the differences in Walkers suit. Very different but still says Captain America.
The Falcon & Winter Soldier was a fun show but way to brief to really explore John Walker complex characterization. To do him justice they needed to keep Walker as Cap for the entire season and have Sam take over in a second season. This would have made Johns fall more impactful and Sams rise more meaningful.
Really hoping Hasbro remakes Walkers US Agent suit in a screen accurate version. Though brief, it looked like one of the best comic to screen adaptations weve seen yet. They first version from this wave was really disappointing
