Chris Evans as Captain America action figure by Hot Toys!

Well, it looks like Hot Toys and Sideshow Collectibles have done it again folks…just when you thought their movie likenesses couldn’t get any better, they have upped the ante once more with a brand new and highly collectible Captain America 12-inch action figure specially crafted on the image of Chris Evans as he appears in this summer’s hotly anticipated Marvel Comics blockbuster Captain America: The First Avenger movie. Whether you specialise in vintage action figures or modern collectibles, this post is dedicated to a must-have item for all Captain America fans!

As we’ve come to expect from these toy makers, the figure has a stunning 30 points of articulation and is dressed in a highly detailed movie-accurate version of the costume, whilst the fabulous head sculpt is by Eom Jea Sung, with action figure artist J C Hong doing the hand-painted face work, and overall head art direction overseen by Korean master-sculptor Kojun.

Captain America is issued with a plethora of spare hands, weapons and a figure stand with a Captain America nameplate and movie logo.
