    Yeah like @Slave IV says they come with the figures and to be honest they do the job just fine, you do need to tighten the screws a bit as they tend to be a bit loose out of the box. I wouldn't use then for anything much heavier that these figures tbh.

    Like I said above I think the two scale together just fine. It will be interesting to see if their wolverine is short though(like he should be).

    Exactly. Once you have them up on a stand or posed dramatically it's not even noticeable.

    Yeah I missed the cut off on Anime-Export so thought I'd try them, the service was fine but due to their branded boxes and honest customers declaration you'll get stung every time.

    I think Hobby Search (1999.co.jp) handle customs declarations a little better, not sure since I’m in the US where it doesn’t matter.

    Got Mafex Miles. Very good just like the other recent Spider-Man figures :D  one thing I have trouble with is removing the neck piece for the unmasked head :confused:  going to try heating it up to get it off. I think this is it for me and Mafex until the Spider-verse figures coming next year.

    Nice! I skipped this one but will be getting the ITSV version. I just got my Venom and happy to report it is on par, if not better than the Comic Spidey release. Pictures to come maybe this weekend but main improvement is web gripping hands and webbing that does not use that ugly wrist attachment. It is funny how a bulky figure like Venom has better articulation by far compared to the sleek Gwen figure. It's like the opposite of Amazing Yamaguchi where their already incredibly articulated figures are even better on the female figures.

    Mafex Miles looks good! I might be in the minority but I am personally not too into the comic designs because of the more simplistic costumes but something about Miles just does it for me. Haha. But then I remember I have the Spider-verse Miles pre-ordered so I'll just wait for that instead.

    Proportions look little weird but I feel it's probably just because it's an image of a page which isn't sitting flat. But I am satisfied with my SHF one so I think I'll pass on this.

    In other news, Mera dropped recently too which was a definite pre-order for me:

    Nice. I'll be preordering Mera to go with Aquaman and Black Manta. Hopefully they reveal Ocean Master at the next convention they're at.

    You’d be surprised with how closer maefex spidery is closer to the movie than S.H. spidey.

    I don't doubt he'll look good, just that in that specific shot he looks a little stout and the neck's a little short. I'll wait for more clearer pictures to see.

    obviously mafex's spider-man suits will look more movie accurate, after all this, and all of their other movie related figures, are coming out way after their respective movies have been released so they have more time to look over every little detail while bandai or hasbro only rely on whatever trailer or concept art is available to them and nothing, in either of what they see, is ever final if they want the figures to release around the same time the movie does.

    Yeah I'm gonna be needing that. How often does Mafex do retools? A Mera in her surface clothes would be quite fun, but they've given her main accessory to this figure.

    I don't think I've found my perfect Aquaman movie figure. Jason Momoa's hair is uncooperative for plastic. Does anyone here have Mafex's?

    Mera looks good but I've had the Mattel for a year and have been happy with it.

    You know I've owned both the Aquaman and Justice League version of the Mattel figure and neither of them wanted to stand (I also snapped the wrist peg on the Justice League version while swapping out her hands). I'm thinking this will be a better figure overall. But at almost five times the price it really should be.
