From what I have seen, the USO and Rescue are two separate figures. It is not a complete costume under the Rescue outfit.
I was hoping it might be a bonus outfit, guess I'll have to get a fourth Cap, thanks for the info.
Yeah, people were hoping that Rescue had both outfits so you could swap out, or that Rescue would come with the USO in a two figure pack. Didn't happen.

I pre-ordered the Black Widow figure from Sideshow today, and John Barrowman was ahead of me in line! He was wearing a faded Captain America t-shirt. I can't stand it that the Marvel Avengers movie series (the Wal-Mart exclusives) and the Marvel Select Avengers series are both missing Black Widow! I'm crossing my fingers that there will be free shipping. The guy said he's pretty certain that anything from Hot Toys gets free shipping, but technically he had to put down "TBD." It's coming out in December. I can't wait!

Did John get anything from Sideshow/ Hot Toys too?
I almost went for those Wal Mart exclusives, but the same thing crossed my mind. It wasn't everyone, and who knows if they would do another set, or this was it. I decided against it. Later, my friend sent me an article he read about HT and that they were going to do the entire team. Then I saw the figure quality, and I was hooked. Here I am paying a lot more for a figure line than I ever have before, and I am thoroughly enjoying it.
Yes, all of the Avengers figures up for preorder from Sideshow so far have had free domestic shipping.
Not sure Natasha will actually make it out in Dec. There have already been some delays in the release schedule (par for the course with HT from what I read in the Sideshow forum) and they are putting out a lot of figures and vehicles in between now and Dec just with Avengers and Batman.
My expectation is that the 'first wave' of figures will indeed be released by the end of the year (Fury, Hawkeye, Captain America) since they have a few months leeway. The last one is Cap Am in Sept, so if there are 1-2 month delays, they have plenty of time before Dec. If delays keep sliding their schedule, we might not get some, if any at all, of the 'second wave' that are all set for December at this point (Widow, Thor, Loki).

That's neat that you saw John Barrowman in line! I wonder what he was buying? Maybe he's a fan of Hot Toys.

Aw, I hope not! I've got my fingers crossed that the December figures will be on schedule, but if not, at least they shouldn't be too far off. (I'm just hoping to have Loki in time for Christmas...)

If they all happen to hit as scheduled, so much the better. Would be nice to get more than one at the same time.
On the other hand though, delays make me want to pick up other figures in the meantime to tide me over
Fury is going to be shipping at the end of this month. He was originally set for June, but got bumped one month. Hawkeye has too... got moved from July to August. However, I maxed out on the payment schedule, so I won't actually get Fury til Sept.
So I decided to get another figure in the meantime. Odin will be here Tuesday

Just read that the title of the second Cap film will be Captain America : The Winter Soldier, without even seeing what the movie version will look like, I want a Hot Toys Winter Soldier and eventually a Captain "Bucky", roll on 4.4.2014.

I still wish we could have had 2 pre-Avenger films for Cap in WW2.

Disney/Marvel is a big enough company, unless Chris Evans is too busy, they could and should do this, Cap in WW2 with the Howling Commandos would be awesome.

I'd expect that we might get flashback scenes (ala Highlander, Forever Knight) to his WW2 days.

Ok that is seriously awesome. I would never have expected to see a regular action figure of Coulson, let alone a Hot Toys Coulson. The fact that they're actually making one proves what an amazing company they are!

And just when I thought I had the end in sight for Avengers figures... HT, here's even more money for ya
I'd have to see the full figure though. From the 'regular clothed' figures I have seen from HT before... they don't look as good attire wise. Scaled down suits and such don't look right.
Now if they do him, I can still hope for a Agent Hill figure too

It looks like Hot Toys are doing all the characters from the Avengers, so would that mean a Bruce Banner as well as the Hulk, because no offence to Mark Ruffalo but I'd rather get an Agent Hill too.

From Friday HT will be revealing prototypes of Phil Coulson, the Chitauri Footsoldier, the mk vii Iron Man and most importantly the Hulk, does anyone know if Fort Knox does loans?
