Well I wouldn't go to the extremes of purchasing a product just to do one single render [although that Creature Pack should come in handy for a while]. I think you're just looking in all the wrong places for what's already right under your nose.
Ya say you need Cap wings? Well if you really don't wanna do a whole lot of postwork then just go over to Animotions.com and download either the freebie P4 Captain America by Hasdrubal or the P4 Whizzer by Hasdrubal too...both figures come with head wings that you can easily parent to your figure. They might not be picture perfect but they look like the real thing and unless you're doing extreme closeups of Cap they should work fine. I used them in both of these images.

As for Wasp wings. You could go the same route and try using some of the wings that come with the P4 Wasp figures [I think there's about 3 of them] in the Animotions freebie section. They may not be perfect but I'm sure you can work with the surfacing to get what you want. There;s also some prretty good wings at Renderosity on this page.

And if you're gonna use Aiko 3 for your Wasp the set at the top of the page won't require any tweaking.
As far as the Thor texture for M3 goes I can't help you there. I don't really like making costume skin textures [although doing Thor wouldn't be much of a challenge]. But here's my suggestion. Use the Ultimate Thor mat. Just take the texture into Photoshop and make the changes where you need to. The two costume are fairly similar so it should'nt be too dificult to make the changes. [I am of course assuming that you are Photoshop literate  ]
If worse comes to work, try making your own texture. If you have the M3 Guide template then it'll make things a lot easier.
If none of these are to your liking, then just screw the whole project and do the Defenders instead .
