The black is the worst part of the outfit for me. I could see them going with a darker blue, since it would blend better with the chestplate.
> That being said, I actually really like the "American shield" being incorporated into the costume, because it looks modern and Goldern Age all at once, even though I could do without the metallic glossiness of it (which really doesn't work against an otherwise mostly all-black costume), and while I can accept that Bucky-as-Cap would wield a gun and a sword, it still just looks ... wrong, on any Cap's costume.

I agree with you about the chrome look as well, though it doesn't seem quite as pronounced in the other art previews. Really, if they were going to go with a new costume, they should as swiped as much from the Ultimate WW II Cap design as possible.
