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...
Sweet display!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing Warpath and Powerglide. I remember having both of those guys sitting on my toy shelf as a kid.
ReplyDeleteThat's an excellent 1980s display! FUN FACT: I'm actually finishing up Treading The Tommyknockers right now and there is a reference to G.I. Joe figures in the book, with Crystal Ball and Snake Eyes being specifically named. Crystal Ball seems out of left field as a mention but King and possibly his son, Owen, helped to develop the figure in some way.
ReplyDeleteAwesome little nugget of info there ,BBQ 👍 I remember my sister taking me to the store to buy Crystal Ball. She told me he looked a little like Vincent Price. At the time I had no clue who he was but now I see the resemblance!
DeleteAn absolutely fantastic display of goodness.
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys!
ReplyDeleteThis is the sort of thing that needs to become a trend!
ReplyDeleteAgreed! More shelfies, please!
ReplyDeleteOh man! Lion-O, He-Man, Rambo, Optimus & Chuckles!!! You have all the greats here!
ReplyDeleteThat was my aim. I wanted to group all the icons together.
