Spider-Punk pegwarmed bad where I am... Noir and Mysterio were always gone though. The Into the Spider-verse sequel is delayed, but according to leaks Spider-Punk is in it... so that should make his old figure go even higher on ebay... unless they re-release him or make an updated version.

But whatever... I still think he looks dumb... never even used the Spider-Punk suit for one second while I was playing the PS4 game.

I am sick of sets. Sometimes I only want one of the figures. I don't want to get the set for one and then sell the rest. It's just better for me to just skip it and hope maybe it's released as a single later. And if not, oh well.

I never even saw Lasher, nor anyone else from his wave...
LOL wut?

That Riot is so much better than this blue version Hasbro is doing.

They've yet to do Hybrid, right?

PLEASE Any body get an Extra that are willing to trade ? I have an extra sealed deluxe venom ,captamerica symbiote,+ alot more .
Id be willing to even pay for your extra and give some figures for a bonus incentive . I dont feed scalpers but im willing to give to a fellow collector for their trouble.

i'm sure it will come back in stock, just give it some time and check back periodically

By being addicts. I wish I was kidding, but obsession is the name of the game nowadays, even more than the "toy hunt" days of yore before two-day shipping was the norm.

I gave up on this stuff years ago. The last thing a toy should ever be is a source of stress. It goes against the very nature of these items to be staying up at all hours refreshing or taking breaks from work to check for toy drops or dropping 3x retail on eBay to buy a literal plaything. Once you're of the mindset that the toy collecting world is addiction-based and artificially difficult to drive up demand (and friggin' revolting as a result of all the shady conniving nonsense) it becomes a lot easier to ignore the latest drops and let things chill.

Same. It's one of the most godawful spider-costumes ever. Also I don't know too much about the character's back story but is he super into punk in his civilian life too or is the punk thing simply part of the facade. I just saying it'll be kinda dumb to disguise yourself in a fully concealing costume but then accessorise it to display one of your actual fave interests giving a huge clue that it's you under the mask. Though if it turns out Spider-Punk is actually super into K-Pop or something and not punk at all then aye, good cover.

I've read Spider-Verse and the only thing I know about Spider-Punk is that he is Hobbie Brown, who was Prowler in the main universe.

Aye, I knew he was black and not Parker or Morales but had forgotten just who he was.

It looks fine. The blue color scheme is a bit unusual for Riot, he was grey in the movie and in the Lethal Protector comic.

Heh the “godaweful spider-costumes” comment reminds me of the underwear suit from the ps4 game, it got some very mixed reactions.

Yeah, it gets difficult. I lucked into a Mysterio of that wave just visiting another state by chance. Of course, it lessened the achievement when they just re-released him later, altho the OG was better colors, I think. Got Lasher from a toyshop that sells random stuff people give away etc.
The things I will never get, apparently, are the Walgreens exclusive comic-accurate Moon Knight, & I guess I won't be getting Jigsaw! I was on top of it as much as I could be, never got the chance!

You should try it, the game gave it some fun features, the little details, and there's a unique JJJ podcast on that costume specifically.
I don't like it as a concept or that enamored with the character design, but I think it is good for at least a minor look in the game.

[JPs]

WHY DON'T THEY HAVE AGONY'S FINS/BLADES!!! 1 of the main features that set her design apart, and they don't do it? Just lazy as can be, including the way they just repaint big Venom for Riot. It wouldn't have been difficult, seeing the good things they did with Phage. But they would have to like the fans.
They keep saying Separation Anxiety, but this isn't related to that storyline, it's actually a more recent Carnage storyline--as evident by Riot's new coloring & head sculpt. I'd also have prefer his OG face in some ways, as it looked a bit unique for symbiotes back then.

Singing to the choir, my friend. I've been saying this for over a decade. I do NOT want spend $40-$60 just to get one figure. Nope, you can keep it.
