The screws were absent on the shield in the equipment close-ups during the ending credits.Does the Avengers shield not have the five screws that are seen in the CA:TFA shield?
What seems off is eFx's statement about a fiberglass shield being less prone to damage compared to an aluminum shield.
Fiberglass doesn't dent it just cracks and shatters.
Plus, the shields made by the folks here look much better.
I agree that metal looks better than fiberglass, but the deciding factor for me is going to be price. If I can't get fiberglass at less than $1k, I'd rather get metal.
Does the Avengers shield not have the five screws that are seen in the CA:TFA shield? I like it all, but I think I would still stick to the shield as a wall hanger. The hammer looks amazing though.
BTW, where'd you get these pics, and any word on price?

I think they are talking about the spun rivets in the points of the star...
The Caps shield like Thor's hammer shouldn't change. Here are some close ups of the movie uniform with the shield in the background.

Would anodized blue and red parts help with scratch resistance on the shield?
Guess that would require individual rings...increasing the cost.
I remember my dirt bike being somewhat durable.
But what is a fair estimated cost for the official shield?
Edit: The pictures of the new Hot Toys Avengers figure has the "screws" on the shield.

I'm not sure I follow you... The shield didn't change from movie to movie, and the "screws" are actually rivets, and are on each version of the shield
