The Avengers Suit Edit
Captain America has a standard, blue, minifigure head printed to resemble his mask, with black lines to give the mask shape. A giant "A" is on the front, along with holes for his eyes and mouth. His head has a little bit of back printing depicting more of the helmet shape. His torso printing has a belt, red and white stripes, a zipper, a white star in the center of the chest, two grey strips in the top corners, and black lines to add creases in the suit. He has backprinting depicting a continuation of the belt, the grey strips from the front, and red and white strips along with black lines to give the creases in the armour. His body is mostly dark blue with some red and white, and dark red hands. He comes with his iconic shield, which is a new rounded piece.
This version is based off Steve Rogers' appearance in The Avengers.

Background Edit
In 1942, Steve Rogers was deemed physically unfit to enlist in the U.S. Army and fight the Nazis in World War II. He volunteered instead for Operation: Rebirth, a secret military operation, he was physically transformed into a super-soldier dubbed Captain America. At first the army only used him as a propaganda figure, but while in Europe he saved hundreds of prisoners of war, which also included his friend Bucky Barnes. Steve and Bucky then created a team to fight HYDRA, a Nazi organization created by Johann Schmidt, also known as the Red Skull. While he tried to prevent Schmidt from bombing America, Captain America crashed Schmidt's aircraft into a glacier, after Schmidt was transported to another dimension by the Tesseract. Captain America was frozen in the Arctic for almost 70 years but survived due to the super soldier serum and was discovered by S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists. He awoke in a mockup of a 1940s hospital ward in S.H.I.E.L.D. HQ, but realized it was fake and broke out, and ended up in the streets of present-day New York, where he met S.H.I.E.L.D. director Nick Fury.
Later, Fury appraoched Steve to help retreive the Tesseract stolen by Loki. He informed Fury that they should have left it at the bottom of the ocean. Steve was brought aboard the Helicarrier and ordered to apprehend Loki in Stuttgart, stopping him from killing a civilian and saved by Iron Man. Rogers later stopped the fight between Iron Man and Thor. Aboard the Helicarrier, he argues with Tony Stark about not angering Bruce Banner and about Stark's personality and acheivments. He broke into the weapons vault and figured out S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted the Tesseract to make weapons. During the attack on the Helicarrier, he helped Stark fix the destroyed rotor, but not before Stark's suit was wrecked. After, he mourned Coulson's death and helped Stark realize what Loki wanted.
Captain America then became a member of the Avengers, which also consisted of Iron Man, The Hulk, Thor, Black Widow, and Hawkeye. He took out many of the Chitauri and prevented the bombing of a building. After the battle, he witnessed Thor and Loki return to Asgard.
