I'm surprised to see the lack of enthusiasm for this figure's release. Is this gonna get heavily discounted due to slow moving inventory?

Doubt it.

We’re all too busy checking tracking information every 5 minutes.

I'm getting this regardless, it can definitley be posed but can't be left in that pose or it will get damaged over time, which makes sense it should only be posed for photos and left alone after. Yes a lot of us like to keep figures in certain poses on our display but some are better left alone then others you have to compromise sometimes. I'll be happy to keep him in a heroic museum pose, and occasionally pose him for photos. Also we might never see classic spidey made again by HT.

I'm very much looking foward to it, and can't wait to get it.

Lmao I mean it's accurate to the game so why not just stick to the T pose.

Lmao no seriously though I think it's still going to be a decent figure I've passed up all Spider-Man figure until Miles and now this figure.

Man, after watching this video sadly this figure looks bad when it's articulated...even in minor poses. That suit material crumples up, which is fine, but since the muscle definition is overlaid over the suit it gets all crinkled in an unnatural way. I'm mostly an in-the-box collector and don't pose much anyways, so not a major problem for me, but still a bit of a bummer that you can't really put this figure in super dynamic poses since it's Spider-Man after all.

The best poseable Spidey HT has ever done were the Tobey figures in their cloth suits. I sure wish they’d make a classic comic version like that.

This isn’t Spider-Man this is PVC-Man

The ankle articulation was horrendous on those and the mask was stitched onto the neck joint

Even if the material was more suited to dynamic poses I wouldn't trust the clamp not to damage the suit eventually.

@cbulas1 Looks like the sculpt sorta fits, the neck is definitely longer and wider than the advanced suit one.

The ankles broke, yes. That red plastic was notoriously fragile. But the use of the very well done cloth suit allowed for dynamic posing which is what I was referring to. The black suit Spidey didn’t have the sculpt stitched to the neck and that release was just about perfection.

I get it..trust me but it annoyed me that the ankle was horrible nevermind the fragility, you couldn’t stand the figure on it’s own on some surfaces and the old HT stands were meh. I actually liked the material from the old Medicom RAH series ,( Tobey spider- man from 2 )the problem was the body was lousy plastic parts so the articulation was mediocre and th suit design was really toyish looking in the webbing and overall appearance

So if there is a way to combine the latex or soft goods material from the RAH but use HT quality in looks and engineering and add this new ratcheted TT body, then we the right direction

I never did care for the Medicom suits myself. I much prefer a skin tight spandex over a muscle body. HT can do it right as shown by the Superman figures but I just don’t understand why they’re hung up on the rigid plastic suits for, of all figures, Spidey.
