Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man In-Package
 

OK that lizard i just dont know... But the spiderman is a buy for me...

I might actually get these two as it looks like they went "all out" on the articulation for both these guys. And despite my loathing for "no snout" movie lizard this figure of him actually looks pretty badass. :)

That being said, is this the only lizard movie figure in any scale that we've seen so far that has ball joint hips?

Judging by the fact that the Lizard in the movie is about 9 ft tall this guy might be in scale with MU size figures.....which means I will buy him.

maybe ML but wouldnt it seem just a little to big for mu>?

If you put this Lizard with your MU, he'll translate to about 12 feet tall. Way too big for MU. Of course, you could use him as a random, giant monster for your MU characters to fight. That's what I do with any cool looking monster toys. Like the MOTUC Shadow Beasts.

Wow. FINALLY some decent looking Amazing Spiderman toys.

^BOOM. That's what makes toys fun. I'm buying this guy in multiple scales to battle my multiple fave toylines. GIJoe, MU, and MOTUC!

I get that the new Spidey lenses are kind of goldish, but when that translates to ORANGE lenses on all the toys, I want to puke on toymakers faces.

This.. The eyes on this figure turned me off from the start.

That lizard design is hideous, and not in a "hideous monster" good way. I don't understand why the face can't be more lizardly. Probably so he can show more emotion and we can empathize with him instead of having an actual cool looking villain.

Comic book movie staff need to start thinking in terms of what would make a attractive looking action figure a kid would want. Maybe then will we get movie character and costume designs that actually look good. Be careful though, that approach might bring you too close to the original source material! (Gasp!)

Disagree. That design is opposite of hideous and should scream "awesome toy" to most people.

I admit it's not what I think Kurt Connors should be. But we all need to take off our hipster googles and accept the movies, cartoons, and video games will always be different from the comics.

I absolutely hate the way Lizard looks, and I'm not crazy about Spider-man's eyes. I try very hard to judge different versions of stories on their own merits and not in such a biased, superficial way...but I REALLY hate that Lizard design.

Ummm.... but why? I don't have hipster goggles, and I hate this Lizard design. I hate this Spider-Man costume. What was wrong with the traditional costume? If they are THAT badly trying to get away from the Raimi flicks, why not subtly change the costume, and use the Ben Reilly Spider-Man costume (huge black spider on front and back)... This costume just looks horrible.

As for the lizard, with the quality and accessibility of CGI now, you can't tell me that's the best face they could come up with for The Lizard... Really? I'd rather watch Land of the Lost. There is no menace there. Blunt teeth? no scales? Looks like a freakshow with full body tattoos, rather than a powerful human/reptile hybrid.

So far, the ONLY character in any of the Spider-Man movies that they stayed true to is the least liked among fans, and that was Venom... His story, mannerisms, and look had VERY little change, and yet still the fans whine.

I don't like any of the designs, and I don't like the script either. Sadly, it reads too much like the recent (2000+) attempts to add MORE drama to Spider-Man rather than make him an enjoyable hero that deals with angst via quips and witticisms, rather than brooding and whining.

The Lizard looks like a Sleestak.

I agree. Land of the Lost should sue Sony.... if Sony had any money to be taken, considering their dwindling electronics sales...

and there....you see how they blur out the spiderman variant....we all know they had to make one....lol....just show it...

B-But.... This Lizard is basically Ditko Lizard. It doesn't get more old-school than that. He's been shown with the labcoat, are the purple slacks needed?

I politely disagree, Venom was probably the most different comic book villain in the entire Raimi-Trilogy. We're talkin' about Eddie Brock here, big ass, muscular dude straight out of a 90's action flick, not very Topher Grace-esque. Even his origin scene was desperately bad, he was originally there for suicidal reasons, not no whiny-ass "God, are you there, lol? It's me again, yea, kill Spidey please? Kthnxbai ^_^!" Not to mention he never once said: "We are Venom." That's kind of an important line for him, it's like Wolverine's 'Bub' line, he (they?) never leaves home without it.
