The bigger Armored guys don't have to be super-articulated, but these Captain America hip joints suck it!!

Thanks bro! | Some people may like them. I just found the photographing experience left me quite disillusioned, given that it was nigh-on impossible to get him to stand without a base (and he doesn't include one) and even with one, he's still too top-heavy.
