I was promised I was done with this but no one will let this be.
It it not the angle, the body is completely different, if anyone on this board thinks otherwise then I challenge any of you on the board to do the pose like the one on the building.
Maybe that is photoshopped, I dont know but a figure should look normal just standing, it should not have to be posed in weird positions to look acceptable, so it can hide the flaws. For example, 89 batman looks fine standing straight, but the spiderman figure looks so big and bulky to me just standing, well that's my opinion.
When I opened the box up of this figure I was like WTF?
Yes you are right they did a fantasic job on the costume and yes I agree the plastic boots would suck and webbing also, but I rather that than some big body builder with thunder thighs and broad shoulders in a Spiderman suit, because it does not look like Spiderman.
What also pisses me off with this board is that you think I am trying to put pictures of the black spiderman down. The black spiderman looks awesome and I hope the black one turns out to look like that and not like the last one, which is the only thing I said, which started this mess.
Nevertheless, I respect people who like the body and like the figure for what it is. However, it seems none of you respect me for my opinion that I think the figure sucks.
Wow sorry to dig this up but didnt see your reply.
I fully and totally respect your opinion.
First of all I would like to thank you lavoi for not abusing me like many of you have because I said hot toys deceived us.
TBH it is a good figure for professionals like you that are really good at posing and are able to hide flaws. Like I saw my friends ones and they said yeah it only looks good if you can pose it well, it does not look good standing straight.
I notice how you bend the shoulders back to make the arms not bulky and make shoulders appear less broad, because it is not just that the thighs are too big, the shoulders are too broad and arms are to bulky. Nevertheless, you do a great job at lessening that with your posing!
I tried to do the crouch position to hide the thunder thighs like u but was unable to do it because it was very restrictive and the costume began to stretch.
For people like me that just want to keep a basic standing pose, the figure looks horrible and looks like a big body builder in a Spiderman suit.
Overall it is not a bad figure it just has IMO a bad body and because of that, I hate it overall.
This is an image promoted by hot toys for Spiderman 3 before the actual figure came out. That body looks nothing like the final product, I don't know maybe that is photoshopped? Look how nice and slim it looks and look at the shoulders, they are not big and broad.
I wanted mine to look like that instead I end up with a figure like this with broad shoulders and big thunder thighs. I can not pose a figure like this and make it look good like you guys because I am too scared of breaking the thing because of how restrictive the costume and the joints are and I am not talented enough to even be able to achieve such good poses like a lot people on here.
Ha ha beat you to the punch by two minutes!
