That's good info - thanks...! If this is the case, I would have to stay true to the intention of the peice which is no-flesh tone.

I think the b&w face makes much more sense seeing this is from a b&w serial plus I think it just looks better.

I like the flesh colored version. Gives it a nice little "touch" of color.

You & me both. I don't think the face color is a deal breaker at all. I'll buy whichever is made.

Im gonna go with the flesh colored face, that way it'll match with the other caps. I think it'd be cool having a "different caps" display including bucky cap, newsreel cap, and ultimate cap together.

All b&w for me. They both look good but the flesh color one looks like he's wearing a black costume. It would look very awkward next to another cap statue. It's gotta be grey face in order to fit in with my Cap/Avengers statues.

I think that was Randy's original idea. What if they gave Cap a uniform to wear when they filmed the newsreels.

I love the looks of this sculpt!!! I may buy one to repaint with Caps modern color scheme. From the looks of the pics so far, this may be my favorite look for Cap yet!!!

I agree! I think there should be a modern color scheme variant for this statue!!! I would definitely buy one!

I'm not sure if I'm buying or not, but if I did I would choose the black and white face. I don't remember seeing any old newsreel footage where the faces were flesh toned.

The flesh-colored face is just weird.

Perhaps a "Colorized" Cap face as a compromise?? "colorized movies have softer contrast and fairly pale, washed out color." Film colorization - Definition
Either way (BW or Flesh Tone) .... Newsreel Cap is a Fantastic sculpt.
Maybe a Film cannister or A "Hollywood" Star and "Buy War Bonds"
