"Proud Americans."

Awesome. I didn't think I was going to get USAgent in time for this one, but the Comic Book Shop had him for me. (They were down to an Iron Man when I left...) Although it would've been nice if he was maybe a head taller--like maybe as big as Thunderball or Piledriver--he's pretty good. Although I hated him at first in Captain America, much like fellow asshole Guy Gardner, USAgent eventually won me over: he's a dick, but all right. I often thought of USAgent as "Red State Cap," but honestly? I like him more than that...

And Uncle Sam, a couple weeks before he actually comes out from MattyCollector.com, loose from eBay, and directly from China. Nothing ironic to see here, no. Buying him loose, I didn't get the Dollman pack-in; but a small price to pay. Literally: he was $11.03, with free shipping. I wasn't planning on getting him, honestly, it was merely good timing.

Sam isn't a bad figure: paint on mine is nice, no stuck joints. He shares a lot of parts with previous figures like Gentleman Ghost or the Joker, I think. I don't much care for the hips, though--had the devil's own time getting him to sit down--and the neck might be a balljoint in theory; in practice it's just a swivel, barely any up or down movement.

We have a few posts scheduled for tomorrow, and maybe another one with Uncle Sam and USAgent. Wednesday...well, we'll see how things go...
