Hot Toys - MMS179 - The Amazing Spider-Man: Spider-Man

Oh well, I'm still getting the figure for the suit as it is the USP on this figure. Shame they have ruined the sculpt as it would have made for some interesting bashing with a regular body/hands.

I like it ^^ Just don't get what they've done with the spider-eyes

I think the sculpt looks good, not as good as the proto but its decent!

What's up with his neck when he has his mask on? Looks odd.

 

[Viking Spawn]

I'm leaving mine displayed with his mask on anyway. HOWever, those newer pics inked posted look okay.

How anyone can say the headsculpt is ok is beyond me, it bears no resembelance to Andrew Garfield whatsoever.

If you showed that to 100 people without the Spider-man body as a give away, I don't reckon a single one of those people would say Andrew Garfield.

The proto had some few minor errors, but now it's like they redone the whole headsculpt based on a cheap Hasbro toy.

It looks like it's going to be a complete swap-out neck, there must be another in the box...one fully webbed and the other only partially so.

I really wish I'd not put those drawings up here now, if HT have 'adopted' them they look like seriously terrible crap!

I don't know if anyone would recognize RDJ if he hadn't his distinctive beard.
I know enough people who say he doesn't look like himself. That beard-gimmik sure helps a lot.

In the Andrew case it seems to depend on the haircut

I disagree. There is some................. "resemblence." But compared to other HT figures, I can understand why you're/others are upset. I'm not crazy about it either (from what I've seen) which is why I will be leaving the masked HS on display instead. Again, I'm hoping OMG's pics will be more promising.

What have they done? I can't put my finger on it. Is it the eyes? I think it's the eyes.

Definitely squintier. I may have just made that word up....

Looks great. Will order.

Damn, 1st head sculpt is spot on

do 100 people even know who Andrew Garfield is?

It's not spot on but it's much much better than the new one. The big hair, the long face, are very close, the new version has less Garfield character, is a more generic human looking head.


Where are these pics coming from?

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

The neck molding is the only part of the head i dislike. If i can switch out the neck post it'll be a non-issue

 

[Sturanich]

It looks like he's got the mumps!

He's that kid from The Social Network, right?

 

[Apone]

I don't think the second figure is Hot Toys. They couldn't go that far backward from looking like the actor to (relatively speaking) making it look like a Ken doll.

Hot toys posted them on their Facebook

They were posted on the Hot Toys Collectors page not the official Hot Toys FB page. The most recent ones are by someone named "lolol" and the first ones were by "Kcnneth"

This is laughably bad. Medi wins.
