REVIEW: “The Winter Soldier” Captain America 9FIFTY Snapback Hat by New Era

Today is the last day to enter our Captain America: The Winter Soldier New Era Hat Giveaway, which you can still enter here! To celebrate the end of our latest contest, I thought I’d do a quick review of one of the hats from New Era’s new Captain America 2 Movie Collection. The Blot really loves this “The Winter Soldier” 9FIFTY snapback hat! This black, red and grey hat pays tribute to The Winter Soldier, one of the best “new” characters Marvel has introduced in over a decade. I don’t want to give away too much from the movie or the comics, but The Winter Soldier plays a huge role in both (and probably will for years to come).

The simple design of the “The Winter Soldier” 9FIFTY Captain America snapback is really striking. Not only does the black and grey hat with red accents color scheme look sharp, but it accurately matches The Winter Soldier’s costume. It was such a great decision by New Era to use shiny, reflective material for The Winter Soldier’s red star logo on the front because it really pops off the black fabric of the hat. And I like that they use that same red shiny material for the bottom of the brim of the hat, especially since it’s hidden from most people’s view of the snapback. It’s hidden little touches like that, which make New Era hats the best!

My only slight complaint is nowhere on the hat does it say Captain America or The Winter Soldier. Personally I’d like it to outwardly tie-in to the movie with a little text on the back, but I’m sure for some that’s probably a positive. In some ways it extends your wear of the hat since without the film’s title it can easily pass for a non-comic book or movie hat for years to go. It is definitely a Captain America: The Winter Soldier hat though, as the tag inside features the film’s logo.

“The Winter Soldier” Captain America: The Winter Soldier 9FIFTY Snapback Hat by New Era should be hitting stores everywhere soon. It doesn’t look like it’s currently available at the New Era online store, but I would imagine it will be showing up there soon.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier New Era Hat Collection

If like The Blot you’re a fan of Captain America and Marvel’s live action movies then you won’t want to miss out on New Era’s new Captain America: The Winter Soldier Hat Collection! While I don’t know too much about these hats, from the pictures I’ve seen they look fantastic. My favorite of the four Captain America 2 hats is the fitted “Marvel Captain America Character Suit 59FIFTY Cap” featuring the Captain America logo from the film (bottom right in the pic above). I also think it’s really cool that New Era has produced a Winter Soldier cap featuring his red star logo and signature red, black and silver color scheme. It’s a very down low comic book inspired design.

All of the New Era x Marvel Captain America: The Winter Soldier Collection hats seen here will be available for purchase at the New Era online store and retail locations worldwide soon for between $29.99-49.99. However, the polyester Marvel Captain America Character Suit 59FIFTY fitted cap is available now!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Teaser Character Movie Poster - Chris Evans as Captain America

The Blot’s been holding onto this very last Captain America: The Winter Soldier character movie poster for today, Friday, April 4th - also known as the US premiere of Captain America 2!!! This action filled poster features Chris Evans as the titular Captain America (unmasked of course). It’s not my favorite of the Winter Soldier one sheets, but it’s not terrible either. Sadly, I have to wait another week before I can see CA2 in theaters. When are you going to see Captain America: The Winter Solider?

Marvel's Captain America 2 storms into theaters on April 4, 2014.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Screen Print by Rich Kelly

Is it really April 4th already!?! As you read this Captain America: The Winter Soldier is now in theaters and The Blot can’t wait to go see it. In the meantime, check out this awesome Captain America 2 screen print by Rich Kelly featuring Cap, Black Widow, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. For fans of Mondo’s Marvel Movie Screen Print Series this is definitely a must get! The Blot, however, is holding out for a Guardians of the Galaxy release!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier by Rich Kelly is a 24”x36” hand numbered screen print. The Standard Edition has a limited edition run size of 435 pieces and will retail for $45, while the Variant has a limited edition run size of 225 and will retail for $70. These prints will go on sale at a random time today, Friday, April 4th, at the Mondo online store.

Cast & Crew Exclusive Captain America: The Winter Soldier Movie Poster by Paolo Rivera

After designing the Cast and Crew Exclusive Captain America: The First Avenger Movie Poster back in 2011, its fitting that Marvel would ask comic book artist Paolo Rivera back to also design the cast and crew exclusive poster for Captain America 2! All of the cast and crew members who worked on Captain America: The Winter Soldier got a copy of this exclusive retro movie poster. I love that Paolo stuck with the retro theme of his original poster, but went with a slightly more modern take. This design gives off a more 1970s vibe, don’t you think!?! Boy would The Blot love to get my hands on a copy of this poster!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is scheduled to invade US theaters on April 4, 2014.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Final One Sheet Movie Poster

What The Blot loves about this final theatrical one sheet movie poster for Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier is how versatile it is! I’ve gotten my hands on three different versions of this poster, the US, UK and Japan editions, and each one is slightly different. The American version is actually my favorite because it’s the only one that shows Captain America with his signature mask.

While all three versions feature Captain America, Black Widow and Nick Fury prominently, it is interesting to note the main difference between the two international posters is they’ve substituted Winter Soldier for The Falcon. I wonder if what the reason for that change was? The Blot would have gone with including them both, but that’s just me!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier stars Chris Evans as Captain America, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Sebastian Stan as The Winter Soldier, Anthony Mackie as The Falcon and Robert Redford as Alexander Pierce. Captain America 2 storms into theaters on April 4, 2014.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier IMAX Movie Posters

The last few summers IMAX has really upped its marketing of movies released in its signature Image MAXimum film format by producing some pretty sweet IMAX specific movie posters. They’ve even started giving out exclusive one sheet movie posters at their midnight screenings. IMAX has taken things one step further by releasing an entire set of red and black Captain America: The Winter Soldier character movie posters!

While the aesthetic is quite striking, it’s a little disappointing that all IMAX did for marketing campaign was trace the photos of Marvel’s original The Winter Soldier character movie poster set released earlier this year. Where’s the creativity in that one? At least they designed an all new Captain America 2 theatrical one sheet, which is really the coolest poster in the entire set!

The Captain America: The Winter Soldier IMAX Character Movie Poster Set includes Chris Evans as Captain America, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Sebastian Stan as The Winter Soldier, Anthony Mackie as The Falcon and Robert Redford as Alexander Pierce. Captain America 2 storms into theaters on April 4, 2014.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Teaser Character Movie Poster - Emily VanCamp as Agent 13 Sharon Carter

While The Blot’s been waiting for a Captain America: The Winter Soldier character movie poster of Cobie Smulders’ Maria Hill, I never saw this one coming of Emily VanCamp as Agent 13 (aka Sharon Carter). But what a pleasant surprise! If you’ve ever read a Captain America comic book then you know Ms. Carter is a pretty important character in the world of Steve Rogers, and with the release of this one sheet movie poster I expect to see VanCamp as Agent 13 in many Marvel films from here on out.

Captain America 2 storms into theaters on April 4, 2014.
