CT Toys - Spider-Man (Classic)
CT Toys is heavy on my radar right now. I was pleasantly surprised with Wolverine but this Spider-Man figure has made me a full fledged believer. Included are 5 sets of alternate hands, 1 with magnets (6 in all if you count the ones he comes equipped with), 1 extra set of articulated feet with magnets, 4 web streams and an alternate McFarlane style head sculpt. Oh, and a display stand. I've said in the past how sucky I am at posing action figures. That said, MAFEX/CT figs are great for posing, even if you're not very good at it. It's "kid gloves" with these guys, though, as they are a little gummier than Legends figures. CT Toys Wolvie and Spidey! Here's CT Toys Spidey next to a couple of Marvel Legends Spider-Man figures. The differences are pretty pronoun...
1990 Toy Biz Marvel Superheroes Daredevil
Growing up we had lots of cool superhero toys to collect. There was never a shortage of Batman, Superman or Spiderman figures in the toy aisles. Mainstream characters got all the love. Dudes like Daredevil, not so much. That all changed in the mid to late 80's (Mattel Secret Wars) and in 1990 Toy Biz would start releasing their seemingly neverending line of Marvel Superheroes that gave us action figures of everybody from Daredevil to Deathlok.
Very solid action figure Tony!

ReplyDeleteI totally missed out on the 25th anniversary joes. I found Bazooka down here for a whooping 15 dollars. I balked. Now they are really expensive on Ebay.
ReplyDeleteBazooka Is one I've always wanted.He's gotten down to 10 bucks on ebay on good days.
ReplyDeleteIs this the one that came with the air chariot? I have the one I got loose, but think he was the single carded one, this guys paint and accessories seem better overall. I'd like to see them take another shot at this character to get him right as he always seemed a bit off.
ReplyDeleteHe's from the Arise Serpentor set,D.I think of all the Serpentors he's the closest to the cartoon version,but still not on point.The removable helmet is a plus,too.
