Title: Captain Britain- WalMart

I think something similar was posted before, but the general consensus was that iu was a one-off custom job.

This, however appears to be on the market- in the US anyway

And I want one

I got one of those in the seaside town of Newcastle a few years ago in one of those shops that sell all sorts of tat. Cap is pretty cool - although he has some strange wristbands (may well be a different figure repainted). It's much better looking than those other figures.
