While I originally had no interest or intention of picking up the Cyborg Spider-Man figure, I ended up grabbing him during the buy two sale at Target last week...he was free...so why not?

A couple of thoughts...

It's kinda amazing that as many times as we've seen this body used with other Spider-Man figures, we have never seen a Spider-Man in a costume as close to the classic version of his costume on this body as we did with this figure. Just thought that a bit strange.
The figure itself is not all that bad, despite my not having any sort of attachment to it. It's well painted and fun to mess around with, although the butterfly joints will chew the paint on the arms if you are not careful.
Really hated that almost translucent grey plastic they used for the bionic arm...ended up giving mine a bit of a heavy wash, and really liked how it turned out. That over-sized robot hand though...someone dropped the ball there. Makes the figure feel kitbashed and not in a good way...
The 90's were a strange and XXXTREME!!111 time indeed...
