Whether you like it or not (and I already know you don't), Marvel Universe IS that line right now. Well, at least as far as Marvel characters are concerned.



This is basically what I meant by saying Spidey's main gimmick should be articulation. He is known for extreme agility and dynamic poses, so his toys should reflect this (unless hampered by a different suit or mutation).

And I agree that same reasoning should apply to all other characters as well. Characters like Rhino and Sandman don't need tons of articulation. Venom, on the other hand, should have just as much as Spidey himself.



Don't get me wrong - every Spidey line goes overboard with the Special Mission suits. But some of them actually do have a precident in the comics, and I feel those are justified.



You will be broken. We all float down here, Billy.





Personally, I'd say that one has the bare minimum articulation for a Spider-Man figure. Definitely not super-posable when compared to the MU version. Of course, if you compare it to other figures within the same line, then the call-out would be appropriate.

Rhino ought to have knees though. The sculpt is SUPERB, same with Venom. The lack of articulation is highly disappointing though.
