Currently bidding on a Spider-Man figure.....
It looks absolutely mint. Will look good next to my already pre-ordered CR Superman. I hope I get it.

Here's a shot of what he looks like.

Greetings,

I see you have some spammers...

Image not appearing.

I didn't win it BTW...

Does look cool, though.

Just bought this off of ebay... from "Jeff bricks and toys online"

This version of Spidey is not being made anymore as far as I can tell and could not find anywhere in the UK that could supply them at a reasonable price. Amazon wanted over £230 + shipping for it.

ebay? £176 including shipping from Hong Kong...

Pictures will be posted!

WooHoo!

It's on its way. But is coming via economy international freight, which means 30-40 days passage...
Oh well, I'm not in a hurry.

It arrived last night, took 59 days! Perhaps I'll pay the extra postage next time...

Here are a few images... Sorry for the lack of quality, taken on my iPhone.
Let's start with the box itself, which is really nice.

Click on any image to embiggen!




This is cover sheet that is inside the box, over the figure itself



Shot of everything inside, left the plastic cover on, dumb move.



Couple of quick shots out of the box




I certainly did not realise that the webbing on the costume is very thin rubber/plastic! A neat touch but means this will have to be treated with kid gloves.

Not exciting I know. However, if I ever get to have somewhere to put them, then I will attach strong magnets to a small, clear, strong rubber band and place them on his feet and hands. Get a thin steel sheet and cover it in an appropriately dimensioned brickwork pattern. After which Spider-Man will be a true wall crawler!
