The Wrap reveal that it went for an amazing $228,000, while the Mark II "autopsy" suit from Iron Man 2 ended up fetching $132,000. Concept art from the movie made thousands of dollars, as did a portrait of the Red Skull.

TheAmazingChrisReeve63 - 4/16/2012, 3:24 PM
That a lot of $$$ for that costume. I wish I had both the USO Capt. America costume and his other one. I'd be the happiest dude in the world.

Love that poster. They should show it during a part of the Avengers. Maybe Coulson shows it to Steve or something (since they said Coulson is a fan of Cap)

I agree, I love the poster. Man, I would have loved to win that 640 million jackpot, I know where I would have spent it!

NickKaseAKAthePieEATERxGETIT - 4/16/2012, 7:08 PM
His uso suit didnt look that bad if he would have had a better mask ... Imo
SCURVYDOG619 - 4/16/2012, 8:00 PM
What I want to know is what happened to the '70's armor Iron Man that used to be displayed at the Marvel Mania eatery at Universal Studios Hollywood? THAT would look good guarding my comics...lol
AUSSYACE - 4/16/2012, 9:38 PM
Holy shit that costume is better than the one now in Avengers...
Cartoon22 - 4/16/2012, 10:11 PM
Dude that cowl would of been better than the helmet we got in the AVENGERS but better fabric more premium material

I got tons of videos from C2E2 I was so lucky to have covered the event

My brother and I signed up for this, I actually thought I could grab something cheap, I was'nt too surprised when the ice encrusted shield went for $20,000 but when the peanuts sold for $400 thats when reality hit. His main costume went for $190,000...I'm thinkin the $233,000 was the final price with tax!

I don't care what anyone says, if they hadn't purposely TRIED to make that costume look rediculous with that cowl, that costume would have been awesome.
