    Honestly though it's insanely overpriced. (MAFEX is going to raise the price all across the board too, just watch. Others will start charging more because MAFEX gets away with it)

    It's a $40 figure. No clue why I'm paying $90 shipped ($70 give or take when you minus the shipping). It's not worth what we're paying for it.

    Cool figure, but not a $100 figure (or even half that).

    Are you happy with him? My only real complaint is that my wrist pegs look like they weren’t made well and have a gap between the ball and are overall feel very fragile. Maybe a loose shoulder joint.
    I agree that it’s over priced and probably should be a fourty dollar figure. I think it’s the best looking six inch Spider-Man figure released to date. It makes the marvel legends look goofy, and I like that figure. A5C7C562-966E-4D16-969A-DB610E153BEC.jpeg 3EBF0E3F-91E7-4FEF-ADE8-21942EF305FA.jpeg
    Ultimately it costs what it costs and it was worth it to me. I’m excited for Venom and hopefully a Black Suit or Scarlet Spider version but that’s my limit.

    I agree it's overpriced too but I'm ok with it. Amazing Yamaguchi is my favorite modern look Spidey figure and I think It's the best value by far. Mezco has the classic Spidey look for me and this Mafex knocked ML out of third place. I do like how they all come with some different accessories.

    Mezco is still my favorite classic Spider-Man figure of course. Mezco is in a different league above Mafex and ML. It is not as articulated as the Mafex but it has a presence that they do not.
    I’ll try and take a pose off with all three soon.

    Agree but I think AY will destroy them all at a poseoff unless the pose is standing straight, lol.

    I still don’t have that figure. I bought the KO that was junk and I bailed on the reissue last year. I was holding out for the convention exclusive two pack with him and Venom but I couldn’t seem to order it anywhere. You can barely find evidence of it’s existence. So I caved and bought Venom, who I love, and moved on from their Spider-Man. To be honest I’m getting out of the Revoltech line, Mezco is more what I’m looking for in a six inch figure line.

    Understandable. I'm good with whatever figure is good.I was going to pass on this Mafex but the board enablers motivated me to get it and no regrets there.

    Definitely happy with it. Just struggling to see where the $ went.

    This is something that Toybiz would have made with 10 more years advancement. For a lot less.

    It is what it is. I'll be buying everything they make in this line too, just with some price bitching mixed in. ;)

    Yeah, the shades and unmasked cowl add another level that even the Mezco One:12 version doesn't have.

    I wasn’t going to order Wolverine but just because of the Cyclops beam effects, I went ahead and ordered both Wolverine and Cyclops. Lol, some expensive ass beam effects.
