Guess the black Future Foundation Spidey is not that popular at that pricepoint... all the Iron Spideys around me sold out though... glad I got the one I did.

I wish the Spinneret had been a standalone, that figure looks great and don't need another traditional Spider-Man figure, so too much cost just to get the one figure I want. Though it's all moot for me at this point since I am still not down with plastic free packaging. Which is unfortunate because I think the Stealth Suit Future Foundation Spider-Man looks fantastic, easily my favorite out of these.

Picked up Pinless Pete yesterday I like him! Still weird he doesn’t have four arm leg things

I think there's a good amount of people willing to sell you Spinneret by herself. And the good thing is since the listings are for a loose figure, you can see the paint apps in photos.

That's a great point, and so I just went out and looked, and you are absolutely correct, several loose ones up for sale. But the neck on them looks long to me, somehow it didn't bother me in the preview pictures. I'm probably going to end up passing on this one

In general though, I also like the aesthetic of the clear window since sometimes I open them, but sometimes I don't and I still want to see the actual figure. Just personal taste!

Finally sat down to watch the first episode of She-Hulk. Outside of not liking the origin change, it was a fantastic premier. Can't wait to see more.

Agreed. I've enjoyed it so far.

Realizing that his revenge attempts against Spider-Man were futile, Alexei finds a new outlet to vent his frustrations. Hopefully the controller holds. And the couch.

Thanks for the laugh. Seriously, some of the stuff you people put on here, brighten my day, in this sometimes cruel world.

Hasbro gave me notice Iron Spiderman is shipping…

My wife is enjoying the show a little more than I am thought She is very picky about how the VFX artists did her hair and suits as Sh-Hulk. Episode 3 is good. Watch all the wag to the end and then go find the promo for the Episode online.

So far, IMO, the show is great. And, wifey loved the third episode, especially with "Megan Thee Stallion" and She-Hulk twerking at the end. I am surprised I like it so much, and anything that makes wifey like Marvel more is a plus in my book.

In spite of the pins this is a great figure. The fire effects are beautifully sculpted. May Thamtarana KILLED the portrait.

I'm glad that gave you some joy. Originally I had a different photo plan but I don't have a 1/12 toilet lying around. Yet....

Yeah, we watched 2 and 3 a little while ago and this show continues to rock. I have no idea what the haters are talking about.

Anyway, so Pulse shipped out my AF Spidey yesterday and Amazon did so today. I guess I'll have two of him in my collection.

MeLikeJinx · 09-08-2022, 10:30 PM

Found Baron Zemo at my Walgreens today. Without a doubt for me the price increase hurts the most with these Walgreens exclusives. Used to buy them without thinking about it at $19.99... now at $23.99 I passed on both Binary and Quasar and picking up Baron Zemo hurt more than it should.

Still hoping BigBadToyStore will get him in because the Walgreens in my area don't stock for shit. The last exclusive I got at Walgreens physically was Medusa last year and that box was dusty as hell. I only got it because of like a coupon or something that made it like $8.

Dr Kain · 09-09-2022, 04:21 PM

YES!!!!

My early impressions, beyond his head having a messy paint job, is that I wish the webwings were made of a softer plastic. They're a bit too stiff, which is going to make posing him a tad trickier. Nevertheless, I love him. I just hope the one coming from Pulse has a better painted head.

Dr Kain · 09-09-2022, 10:57 PM

Webwing McSpidey:

As you can tell, I'm really loving this new Spidey. Like I said earlier, I wish his webwings were a bit softer so theywouldn't pop off just from the slight bang against the body, but that aside, this dude rocks. I do think his head might be sitting a tad lower on the neck than it should though.

Lastly, I didn't realize how much I needed a pinless Spidey in my collection until now.

Wh's the blond dude that looks like Thor?

Hopefully that's not the same Taskmaster.

Why is Leader the villain of a Captain America movie? What about actual CA villains?

Blond Dude is Red Guardian. I have no idea why Leader is the villain I am just glad he is back in the MCU

I was buying him anyway, and I actually think he comes in next week, but your pictures have really sold me on it. I felt like I might be spoiling myself too much if I got this one and the Spinnerett two-pack but to hell with it. My gripe with those web wings is I wish the lines were painted black. Maybe a sharpie will do the job.
