The “Emissary of Hell” known as “Supaidāman” is getting an official action figure release! Tamashii Nations has released official photos and full details for their upcoming releases based on the Spider-Man Live Action TV Series from Toei. The show, which ran from 1978 to 1979 in Japan featured a wildly different take on Marvel’s wall crawler. The show featured Spider-Man taking on a variety of monsters and creatures. When the enemies became oversized, Spider-Man would summon the giant robot Leopardon to pilot during battle. The new releases from Bandai include an S.H. Figuarts Spider-Man, a Soul of Chogokin Leopardon and Marveler Summoning Set, as well as a Super Minipla Leopardon.
The new S.H. Figuarts Spider-Man stands just under 6″ tall. It includes swap out head pieces, multiple interchangeable hands, swap out feet, a bracelet on his wrist, and an assortment of webbing effects. The figure is set for release in August. It’s priced at 7,150 Yen (about $65 USD).
The Soul of Chogokin Leopardon and Marveler Summoning Set features not only the giant robot Leopardon, but also a life size wearable summoning spider bracelet!
