Background
Winter Soldier in-game
James Buchannan "Bucky" Barnes was an ally to Captain America and assisted him in various missions as a member of the Howling Commandos. During one mission he was seemingly killed in action by falling off a train on the side of a mountain.
However, he survived and was frozen like Rogers. He was revived and received a metal arm, but lost his memory. He was trained to be an assassin and given the code name Winter Soldier, and sent on many missions.
He fought with Captain America, who managed to restore Bucky's memories. Bucky then re-teamed up with Rogers, and inherited the mantle after Rogers' death.

- The suit Bucky wore as Captain America is a Minifigure.
- James Arnold Taylor who voices the Winter Soldier reprises his role from the animated film Ultimate Avengers but for the first time as his Winter Soldier persona as in the film Bucky never became the Winter Soldier and lived a happily married life.
