![]() ![]() Like the more recent Captain Americas, the boots use a two-piece construction, so that the ankles can still properly move. The suit is topped off with a shoulder harness, a belt, and boots, which are all plastic add-on parts. On mine, the mid-torso stripes do seem *just* a tad off-center, just careful posing makes them look just fine. That said, she’s still got that layered look like the Caps have, so as to properly recreate all the cool little details of the costume. The bulk of Captain Carter’s costume is a single piece jumpsuit, in contrast to the usual two-piece set-up we’ve seen on the Captain Americas. The application’s still really strong, and she’s got enough realism to her that she doesn’t stand out too much from other figures Hot Toys has done. ![]() As with the sculpting, Captain Carter’s paint work is a bit different from the usual, with something a little cleaner and bolder. They also both work really well for their respective looks, and add a nice bit of variety to what you can do with the figure. They’re both attached via magnets, so they swap out and hold in place pretty nicely. She includes two different pieces for the back of her hair, allowing for either a relaxed hang, or something a bit more dynamic. It’s still got a respectable likeness of Hayley Atwell, making her fairly easily recognizable. The sculpt is much smoother and streamlined than your typical Hot Toys head, but it’s nevertheless a really strong likeness of the character as she appears in the show. Whatever the case, the spot where this is most evident is the head sculpt. This appears to possibly be a licensing thing, since the Legends figures were the same way. They most often got for hyper realism, even when adapting non-realistic designs (as highlighted by the Clone Wars characters in their larger Star Wars line), but the What If…? figures are instead sticking closer to their actual animation models. The figure stands about 11 3/4 inches tall and she has over 30 points of articulation.Ĭaptain Carter’s head sculpt marks a change for the usual Hot Toys stylings. Captain Carter is based on her WW2-era outfit from her debut episode, which is definitely the more distinctive of her two looks (it also pairs well with the upcoming Hydra Stomper). Peggy stuck pretty much spot-on to her original release date of fourth quarter 2022, hitting back in early November. It’s a nice little stretch of What If…? figures there. She’s figure TMS059, placing her right between Zombie Hunter Spidey and the Hydra Stomper. Yes, straight from 2021’s What If…?, I’m taking a look at a very fancy version of Captain Carter, Margaret “Peggy” Carter’s super soldier alter-ego! THE FIGURE ITSELFĬaptain Carter is the second figure in the What If…? component of Hot Toys’ Television Masterpiece Series, which is their “small screen” equivalent to their longer running Movie Masterpiece Series. ![]() Today’s focus sticks with that, more or less, albeit in a sort of an alternate universe capacity. Look, I’ve got a new Hot Toy, and I don’t really feel like waiting over 200 reviews to get to it, okay? When last I was discussing Hot Toys, I had two different Captain America reviews, and indicated that was kind of the path I’d be sticking to for Hot Toys going forward. Notably, I’m also breaking formula, and totally writing a review of a Hot Toy, but not on a big review number. ![]() Greetings and welcome to a brand-new year, faithful readers! Today’s important thing is the official kick off the post-Christmas reviews. CAPTAIN CARTER MARVEL STUDIOS WHAT IF…? (HOT TOYS) ![]()
