About this deal

He’s got a lot of joints (the majority of them are Revoltech’s signature Revolver joints), to be sure, but how they interact and are used is slightly different that your typical action figure. And yeah, I wouldn’t mind just having the Spider-Man and Gobbie to keep carded as showpieces, but no… I have to draw the line somewhere. They definitely follow the Todd McFarlane style guide for webs, which is a good a good one to go by. The quality 6-inch Legends Series Retro Collection Gwen Stacy figure features multiple points of articulation and is a great addition to any action figure collection. It was followed shortly thereafter by a whole two series based on Spider-Man3, which included the pair I’ll be focusing on today, Unmasked Black Costume Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy.

I also found that these new feet made the figure a little more stable when standing, which I definitely appreciated. Her arms are a bit on the thin side, so posing them is a slightly delicate affair, but it’s not as bad as I was expecting. And sure, he’s got sculpted webbing again, but it’s at least recessed instead of raised, making it easier to fix the lack of painted lines this time if you were so inclined. This one, on the other hand, gets an all-new sculpt, which is more properly attuned to her look from the movie.

Check out the Marvel Legends Series Spider-man Retro Collection with comic-inspired decos and character depictions. After butchering poor MJ’s debut ‘mate, I guess DST felt the need to prove that not every woman in Peter’s life was a horrible monster mash. The original Gwen Stacy may have been dead for 45 years, but that hasn’t stopped all sorts of variants of her from popping up. She marks the second of the two figures I’ve looked at so far that don’t actually really fit in the packaging style the line is emulating, but, honestly, that’s become something of a running theme with these figures. Of course, some of these releases are simply recycled figures in new packaging, but some, like today’s pair, are brand new.

But of course, reviews and an occasional rant can only go so far, that 's why we encourage you to contribute! The comics kept Gwen as pretty central to all the follow-up “Spider-Verse” events, and Across the Spider-Verse has the movies following suit. You get a little gold paint on the belt buckle, and that’s about all I have to say about the body sculpt here. This action figure is part of the Marvel genre within the Marvel Legends Sets and included in Wave 1. It is, however, a notable improvement on the prior Gwen figure, and just generally pretty good overall.In its second year, Marvel Minimates worked to fill in some of the gaps left by its first year, but also looked to find its footing and how to successfully carry on a brand when you’ve already put out a lot of the heavy hitters. This is THE place for all things MARVEL LEGENDS: news, discussions, release dates, first-looks, photography, displays, customs, Haslab, kit-bashes and anything else related to this incredible line. Spider-Man arrived in early 2017, with Gwen arriving just a few months later (Venom bridged the gap between the two of them). Hasbro continues to stick with paint for their comic characters over the more realistic halftone method that they have adopted for their MCU figures, and I’ve got no complaints here.
