Along with everyone else - I was furious over two things having to do with the original specifications of this figure. Those two issues being a non-removable helmet and a non-included Falcon accessory. Devastation. So, Hot Toys gives us a generic excuse (Just like with the original Iron Man Mark III BD Version Tony head sculpt!) about how the licensers would not "approve" a removable helmet due to the fact that it was never actually removed in the film. Lame.
At least they tried to remedy the problem by including a sweet 1/6th scale Predator skull, rock on! Now as much as I love this neat little accessory - I still need me a removable helmet, damnit! But, it's an official no go. Regardless, we got the Falcon! Fizzitiuck yeah! The only concern I had in this area was with the solid black color of the support brace for the Falcon accessory (See first picture), which made it look like an antennae of some sort.. not cool. But at last, some final product photos have surfaced online and I'm stoked to say.. it's now clear! Awesomeness! The final result makes for a much better presentation, IMHO.
Even though I really wanted a removable helmet, this character is just way too sick looking to pass up! MINE - will be here in just over a week! Until you all receive yours or in case you need help making a purchasing decision, peep the pictures below.
