So, the thread is somewhat self explanatory. There's been plenty of Spider-Man figures throughout the MU line, as we all definitely know by now. But is there a perfect one? I know they're getting close, but I'm surprised they're not there yet. First we had the Wave 1 Spider-Man, which wasn't that bad. It just felt very fragile to me. Then we got the new mold for Spidey, the House Of M/Secret Wars one. Which was good, but not very poseable.

Now we're getting 3 new Spider-Man figures (that I know of at least). The Spider-Man from the Captain Britain & Spider-Man comic pack. The FF Spider-Man. And the Ultimate Spider-Man. But are any of those the best? I think they're close... but not quite there.

The Spider-Man from the pack looks good. Same looking mold as the House of M one but, at least according to pics I saw from SDCC, has a thigh swivel. Which I LOVE. I think if you could only give one figure a thigh swivel, it should be Spider-Man. What's the problem though? That damn open hand he has. I don't know about everyone else, but to me, it's just stupid. It looks like he's trying to grip something but his arthritis is getting in the way.

FF Spider-Man looks good too. Nice articulation. Nice looking costume. But it looks too bulky. What we saw was a prototype (I think) so hopefully they'll realize that and change it. I personally think it looks like the worst out of the 3 new Spider-Man figures, but I'll get it for sure just for the FF costume.

The Ultimate Spider-Man has what I want. It has what I like to call "web slinging hand". I love the web slinging hand. Sets him up for cool poses and everything. But by the looks of the SDCC pic, they got rid of his thigh swivel. Very disappointing... so close to a perfect Spider-Man! Of course that may be a prototype picture, so maybe they'll give the thigh swivel to Ultimate Spidey.

And the end, they're ALMOST there. Combine comic pack Spider-Man with Ultimate Spider-Man then I'm sure it'll be the perfect Spider-Man figure. That's what I believe at least.

But what do you think? Do you agree? Has the perfect Spider-Man already been made? Or will the perfect Spider-Man never be made?

Anyways, this was my rant. Please enjoy.
