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.
Pretty cool pic.

ReplyDeleteThanks ,Fuji!
DeleteThat is a great looking figure! What series is it from? It reminds me of a modern version of Cap's Secret Wars figure.
ReplyDeleteIt's the Marvel Universe Secret Wars comic pack version I believe.He came packaged with Klaw. Still one of my favorite lines.
ReplyDeleteVery Nice! I believe that all foes who chose to oppose his shield will yield
ReplyDeleteHa ha!Indeed!
ReplyDeletePretty cool picture, very heroic.
ReplyDeleteWhy does the Captain America stopped using weapons after WW2? did he made an oath like Batman or something? I'm not into the avengers at all but I have seen him with weapons before in pics and in the movies but always in the past and so it is a bit curious to me.
A great question,and one I don't have a definitive answer for. I'm thinking the guns were carried over from the war and his time spent as a soldier for the U.S. I guess once he developed his super powers the need to carry firearms became kind of a moot point.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks,Kanov ;)
