"
It is a legit concern!" said one of the people leading the movement, now called "
CapsTrunksGate". Last week,
Mezco Toyz revealed their new
One:12 Collective Captain America (Silver Age Edition) action figure, and all hell broke loose on the internet. See,
Mezco had the audacity to put (
comic accurate) trunks on
Captain America's suit, in a different material than the rest of the suit. "
What did we do to deserve this?" asked a collector.
ToyFarce investigated...
"Why is he wearing Daisy Dukes?"
"
First, there was some deception involved." said
James, a collector from New York who was aware of the situation early on. "
If you look at the early promo pictures, Mezco definitely tried to hide it. But once the figure was up for pre-order and more promo pics became available, we saw it and we knew right away it was going to be an issue."
"Should have been the same material as the pants!!!!"
"
It was horrible. There were people vomiting!" he added. "
The trunks are made of a different material than the rest of the leg. There will be creases on them if we pose the figure. Creases! This is unacceptable!". Collectors have long been nervous about creases on action figures, as thousands of
Hot Toys collectors do not dare to pose their
Spider-man action figures, literally the most acrobatic character ever, to avoid creases. "
I sincerely hope Mezco will reconsider their trunks decision. I get that the trunks are accurate to the Silver age Comics costume, but those trunks have to go."
"America's a$$ will have creases :("
"
This is fine." - Cap, probably.

So, you're worried about my trunks..."
