FREEDOM PREVAILS!
PRESENTING CAPTAIN AMERICA – ALLIED CHARGE ON
HYDRA
For over 70 years, Captain America has been a symbol of freedom and
liberty, fighting for the red, white and blue.
Created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, ‘Cap’ was first seen punching
Adolf Hitler on the cover of Captain America Comics #1, a direct
response to the booming popularity of patriotic superheroes in the
1940s. He became an instant fan-favorite – recognized as a true
leader, upstanding citizen, and hero deemed as American as apple
pie and comic books. Today, Captain America remains one of Marvel’s
most prominent and enduring icons.
SENTINEL OF LIBERTY
Long before Captain America became an Avenger, the atrocities of
World War II on the newsreels inspired Steve Rogers to enlist in
the U.S. armed forces and fight for freedom against the Axis
powers. He volunteered to receive experimental Super-Soldier Serum,
which successfully boosted his physique to the maximum of human
potential and efficiency. Rogers vowed to use his heightened
abilities to fight the enemies of America, and at the top of that
list was Hydra, the rising evil terrorist organization lead by the
ruthless Red Skull. The U.S. Government gave him a costume based on
Old Glory, an indestructible shield, and the codename ‘Captain
America’. With remarkable abilities, unwavering courage and a
“never say die” attitude, Cap became a beacon of hope and
freedom.
“I can’t surrender. I don’t know how!”
Sideshow is proud to celebrate the World War II era of Marvel’s
legendary patriot with the Captain America – Allied Charge on Hydra
Premium Format™ Figure.
Featuring a stunning combination of comic book stylization and
enhanced realism, Captain America vaults over rubble and onto the
battlefield in this expertly crafted, dynamic composition. Equipped
with his signature weapon and defense, Cap will face the enemy with
two variations of his iconic shield – the classic triangular
badge-shaped design, and the modern circular disc shield he is best
associated with today.
The Star-Spangled super soldier dons his classic USO hand-tailored
fabric uniform with sculpted armor details and authentic standard
issue WWII military belt, fitted with storage pouches, holstered
knife and sidearm, and entrenching shovel with scabbard.
With one arm raised high above his head, interchangeable fist and
signal hand gestures demonstrate two of Steve Rogers’ finest
traits; determination and leadership – and with the addition of the
Sideshow Exclusive, he is armed for his mission with a Thompson
submachine gun (see below right).
