It’s rather appropriate that that news came out on Veteran’s Day, but some collectors were upset with the revealed lineup and a glaring omission from it. Those fans may be in luck, however, as it turns out that the rumored Marvel Minimates Winter Soldier lineup circulating is apparently incorrect…

UPDATE 11/13/2013: Diamond Select Toys has now confirmed the configuration of the Marvel Minimates Captain America: The Winter Soldier Wave 55 series to be as follows…

Not to pile on all the bad news at once, I decided to hold off for a day before spreading a bit more gloom.

Well, apparently, Hasbro still hasn’t found any way of releasing those figures…

2014 Captain America Marvel Legends Mandroid Build-A-Figure

While Hasbro brought a decent number of new figures to their NYCC 2013 press event to reveal for their 2014 Marvel Legends Spider-Man and Amazing Spider-Man action figure lines, the amount of new product they had to show for next year’s Captain America push was comparatively low.
