I couldn't resist making a custom Cap after getting my hands on some of the movie figs. I like them, but the hip articulation is craptacular to say the least. I also think the sculpting is a bit too cartoonish looking. So my solution was to combine some Joe parts and gear with the classic Cap fig from the movie. It became a sort of street-fighting, urban warfare version of the character.
I wanted him to look very muscular compared to normal Joes, so I used the biggest forearms I could find - ROC Lt. Stone. I also painted a Wolverine motorcycle and gave it an American flag theme. I'm not sure how much I like the helmet, but I went through the trouble of making it, so I put it in a few pics.

Cool custom. Everyone is torn between keeping that headsculpt Duke or making him Steve Rogers now. They can easily sit down. Just turn the hip joints forward as with every other Marvel movie figure.
