So why did you preorder to start?

There is a mob/group think thing going on with this figure. I am happy with my figure. Can Hot Toys do better? Yes, but it’s not the over exaggerated fail that the internet mob keep harping about.

He looks too big to me.

More pictures. Awesome figure! Best Hot Toys Spidey to date!

Here is mine. Very happy with it. The seam in 1/6 is not as noticeable as it is in close up pictures.

I have the Tamashii C3PO and it was always too clean. This is the definitive C3PO with a little weathering. Will post comparison pics when this one starts shipping.

I think the point made which I think you are also now saying, is it isn’t black and white that you can convert “a height” to 1/6. I believe your first post was saying that Hot Toys should. In a perfect world, you could just apply math, but Hollywood takes artistic license to portray a character...

To be fair, in the Raimi series it was clearly not Tobey in the suit for fully masked scenes so which scale do you use?

It looks great to me and it’s “Raimi Spider-Man“ which does check the nostalgia checkbox. If it didn’t look like it, it would miss the nostalgia checkbox. You can’t really separate that aspect can you? Just because it isn’t hitting your mark, you want everyone to see it your way (confirmation bias).

Thighs, shoulders, upper body, turkey neck, and saggy socks were V1 biggest flaws. The proportions are significantly more accurate with V2 and the saggy socks are gone. There was a trade off, we lose the turkey neck and we lose the neckless suit running all the way up to the head, and as a trade...

I am with Sandcrawler. The figure looks great. It’s a big improvement from v1 and any non licensed version that has come out before. It has flaws, but they all do. And no, not justifying my spend since I would only be out the NRD if I cancelled.

Do you mind taking a picture of the pin that you pushed out to turn the canons around? Is it those tiny ones the canon swivels on? I used a needle and the pin won’t move. Thanks

Here are my helmets. RS Prop Masters Storm Trooper, Darth Vader SL, and RS Prop Masters Boba Fett. Thanks

Thanks, too late. I opened it thinking it was Velcro. I fixed it with a little glue.

For those that have the figure, how does the strap on his thigh connect? Is there a magnet that I am missing? It seems like two pieces of strap with no magnets or velcro. Thanks
