Was this vest on Captain America used on any others figures or in any other toylines?

Can't say for sure, but I don't recognize it from any of the other Cap or Marvel figures. For some reason I feel like it might not even be a removable piece.

Rats, was thinking it would be perfect for my Monkeywrench WIP...

As far as I am aware, it has never been used on any other figure.

As far as being removable, EVERYTHING is removable to a customizer :)

A single cut where the bandolier meets the vets (either side) would allow the vest to slide off and the cut could be glued back together after being put on the figure you want it on.

If its a separate piece, yeah, or just pop of the arms. But something about how it sits on the torso makes me think it's actually part of the torso sculpt. Could be wrong, never had one in hand.

If it's this vest it is glued on but an exacto takes care of that

Sweet, really looked like part of the torso in the cappy TRU pics. Excellent idea for a Monkey Wrench custom DJ.

There was a single carded (or maybe a deluxe) figure in the Captain America movie line that used that vest as well.

Thanx, guys, I knew I had seen that vest before, just blanking when I saw the one at TRU.

I have had a Monkeywrench WIP for some time now.

I put some Barbacue feet onto one of the Dreadnok legs, and found some black gloves from a random X-Wing Pilot. I've had one of the Wild Bill type vests on the torso, but I knew it was a placeholder.

Might use this head
