Winter Soldier (MCU)

A mysterious and deadly master assassin and living weapon, the soldier known as the Winter Soldier is secretly the best friend and believed fallen former member of the Howling Commandos from World War 2, Bucky Barnes. Best friends with Steve Rogers since childhood, Bucky managed to enter the army before Rogers, eventually getting captured with the rest of his unit, where he was experimented on by Arnim Zola. While Steve, now Captain America, was able to save him from the HYDRA camp, he would later be shot out of a moving train into a frozen river below, seemingly killed-in-action.

Truthfully, Bucky was recovered by HYDRA forces, who used electroshock torture to wipe his mind and transform him into their personal cyborg hitman. From the end of World War 2 and on, Bucky was kept frozen until they needed a mission completed, preserving his life while allowing them to eliminate targets for decades, including SHIELD founder Howard Stark. He was eventually released on Captain America himself, who was able to discover his true identity and break through his programming, reminding him of the man he used to be.

Marvel Legends: Infinite Series- Winter Soldier (2014)
Released as part of the Marvel Legends: Infinite Series tie-in wave for the Captain America: The Winter Soldier movie, the Winter Soldier figure was a completely original sculpt based on the character's costume in the film. He includes two different heads; one based on the combat mask he initially wears during the highway fight sequence from the film, and an unmasked head based on the later half of the film. The unmasked head is infamous for having significantly too much paint wash across his eyes.

He also includes a large red sci-fi sniper rifle, not based on anything, repainted from the rifle used by the Hydra Soldier, which doesn't fit properly into his hands. He also comes with the left leg of the SHIELD Mandroid, the build-a-figure for the wave.
