Super Freak
Of all the figures I've gotten recently, DX Joker, Jake Sully, Babydoll, this is the one that I keep coming back to, fiddling with, posing and reposing. It's just so much fun to do, it's a great figure.
Just secured me an exclusive one of these babies, sourced from my local supplier. Price at £200 (a fraction under $310) complete, which when you consider that it's the exclusive (which SSC do not seem to offer to us UK residents) plus the cost of getting one in from places like Forbidden Planet or even a US site - with all the subsequent import taxes - would be considerably more...I am very happy with this price indeed.
Plus the supplier is a friend and I have no problem pushing a bit of business his way in the hard times.
I think what makes this one so like able is the fact that it's simple and doesn't have a bunch of accessories getting in the way of dynamic poses. You are able to pose it however you like with complete freedom. It's very refreshing.
As much as I loved having jack sparrow DX it seemed like all the stuff was a hindrance when posing. Not that it was difficult to pose just that there was a lot of futzing to do. Spidey has none of that.
I did not know sideshow does not offer exclusives to the uk, that sucks wonder why that is
I was'nt saying that its not true, just saying that it sucks for uk collectors and I was wondering why they will sell you a regular but not an exclusive

No, that's fine. Didn't think you'd meant that. And believe me, I am just as confused as you are! To me that is just a choice.
Still, I now have a Black Exclusive Spidey (with 'hammer-hand') and a Red/Blue Spidey on the way! Such great looking figures, I had to have both. Despite SSC's attempts to foil my plans...
Blame Hot Toys on this one. They typically only license retailer exclusives for certain specific markets.
...now even the exclusives are not so exclusive
To those who own both the Black and Red Spideys, which one do you like best?
I would like to pick one up and I am thinking of going for the red classic but the black one does look very nice, some great pictures in here.
