I was upset that Hasbro had no plans to make a Marvel Legends scaled movie Falcon figure, so I had to make one myself. This one was pretty time consuming, and I had my moments of self doubt, but I'm glad I pushed myself to finish it, because I think this turned out not too bad. The torso is from an ML Bucky Cap, the legs are from a movie Winter Soldier, the arms are from a Punisher, the head is from an ML movie Blade, and the wings are from an X-Men Classics Archangel. The head was dremeled and sculpted over and the face was reworked some to look more like Anthony Mackie and I added goggles. I sliced off the shirt pockets from a NECA Hicks figure and attached them to the Bucky Cap torso, used styrene for the zipper, sculpted all the fabric wrinkles in Aves Apoxie Sculpt, and used the harness straps from a Survival Suit Bruce Wayne. I replaced the hands with those from a movie Nick Fury figure. I took some pieces from an Ultimate Iron Man figure and used them for the armor on the back of Falcon's legs. The wings were definitely the toughest part. I cut up the Archangel wings some, and pored over lots of images from the movie to get the designs right. Several different types of styrene strips were used and glued down over the wings to get them to look right. Very time consuming. Very frustrating. But something I felt was important to do. Of course everything was painted accurately to the movie, down to the camo pattern on the pants. Last thing to do was to give him some pistols and a flight stand. And now Sam Wilson is ready to fight alongside Cap to take down any threat!   Please wait... |
