That's what I was thinking, I had some Mego stuff when I was a kid and these remind me of them - a lot!
I saw Demogoblin, but he's got a glider - Demogoblin never had a glider, so that bothers me. EDIT: Checked myself on Wikipedia. Appears I was wrong. My bad. I think that I was thinking of Carrion. They remind me of Doctor Octopus's arms - which, in a book I read, were said to be a device called "waldoes." (I can't find a Wikipedia entry to confirm that this name is correct.)
I thought he had a "flame glider" like the one the toy comes with? I really don't recall. I only remember his one or two appearances after the Doppleganger/Infinity Gauntlet stories.
No luck on the Iron Spidey anywhere. Going to Michigan City tomorrow, maybe he'll pop up there. I did see the Punisher from the Origins Signature series. Didn't look to bad.
actually, yeah. i like these guys because theyre like the megos used in toyfare twisted theatre. famous covers sux
As far as toys go, I am mainly into TFs, but I do occasionally get something if it looks like a nice representation of characters I like. I do like Spiderman a lot, but I have quite a few toy incarnations of him, and when I saw the Origin toys, I couldn't help but think they were really pushing it, especially when I know a slew of toys will be hitting along with the movie later this year. I guess my question is if these are really worth getting if you already have a few good Spiderman toys?
Yea, get em if you like em. if you don't really collect them though and have enough Spideys, dont get them. I got the recent posable Spidey from Origins today with some web flipping thing. The gimmick is the flip, not on the toy so I didn't mind. Well I get him out of the package and he's not that super-posable. His next is cocked funny and his hands are molded in position. Toy Biz did a better job on their first run of classics than these Hasbro ones.
finally got a chance to shoot my DD figure, i present to, the man with no fear! also, the man who bumps into things.
I bought Venom a couple months back...pretty cool. I've been thinking of getting a Spidey to go with it, but I haven't seen one I like yet. Good thing there's like 30 Spider-Man molds in a single wave
Streeeettttch. It's like his wife starched his crime fighting pants again. Damn that woman at Prime riding Grimmy , yee haw!
Well, it seems (in my area, at least) that the Origins line is being cleared out (presumably to make way for Spidey 3), so grab 'em while you can.
