I guess these guys go in here rather than in the superhero board.

Really nice paint yet again JB, they look fantastic.

My jury is still out on these sculpts, I would so like a nice Cap. without a gun

Great paintjob there! :) I am so happy I own a copy of these and to see such nicely painted examples motivates me quite a bit. Although I am thinking of using the old kite shield for mine.

It was US slang for Nazis. As in "You dirty rat... zis."  ;)

Looking good JB!  I was just looking at mine yesterday trying to decide which shield to use of Cap.

Those look great! I'm a big fan of Captain America and recently I've seen a load of these figures kicking around and I was just wondered where they're from?

The great thing about a few superheroes is that they can be pulled into WWWII games, I regularly use Cap, Union Jack, Human Torch, Hellboy, Red Skull and Batman in SoTR games.  :D

Now try going up against this guy!  The Golden Age Sup is nothing like the modern incarnation so it can be a lot of fun.

Sups make any WWWII game great,

FYI re: Golden Age Superman. If you do netflix online you can find a circa 1942 Superman cartoon video. It's over an hour long but just a collection of short (5min maybe) vingettes all packed together. Great fun. I can find the exact title if needed (Wii is off at the moment).

The classic Superman shorts by Max Fleischer are fantastic!  That's how I depict Sup in my games, still indestructible but can still be knocked around and put on his ass.
