Originally displayed in Prospect Park in 2016 to mark Cap's 75th anniversary, it moved to the Barclays Center for fan activations, before finally being placed inside the Bed, Bath & Beyond complex at Liberty View Industrial Plaza in Greenpoint.

The unveiling in Prospect Park!  

Comicave offered an edition of 750 1/12 scale bronze replicas for $450 each, and 100 pewter 1/4 scale replicas for $4,000. Is it just me, or does Cap mirror the pose of the Statue of Liberty?
