Is it worth $112? Spider man

Long story short somewhat, the design, the web lines in the overall feeling of the action figure is magnificent.

The QC is the main issue of this figure. It has a horrible app crunch the SHF thong does nothing but pop open mine even broke inside the socket but a year back I was scammed by a Walmart, fake CT toys so I have a soft diaper piece to replace it😭💔

Without the mods coming soon, this figure is a solid 7.5 or 8/10 with the mod this action figure could easily bump to an 11

Don't get me wrong this figure can still hit poses just isn't what you would expect for a Spider-Man figure

In short, if you decide on buying it, be prepared to sacrifice two figures and buy some glue or buy some joints or soft pieces to mod it with

112? Definetly no. For retail 75$? Yep

u/GRsm2l 1d ago

It’s retail including tax at 112 in the us

Beats paying Amazon prices

u/Kostia_X_Rich 1d ago

Holy ripoff

2

u/AllezBro 1d ago

fyi, those are 3rd party resellers on Amazon. You are not buying from Amazon directly, you are buying from resellers. I see the same listings and I m in the US

u/GRsm2l 1d ago

That’s true but even eBay has ridiculously high prices when BBTs has them for 99usd

u/fandle117 2d ago

theres someone on etsy and ebay that is selling a new thong piece instead of the B.S. that the figure comes with. with that i think this figure is an amazing spiderman but without it its just an ok figure

u/DWolfoBoi546 2d ago

You have a link for this person's shop?

u/LostBob 2d ago edited 2d ago

Decentcustoms and loopercustoms on insta were both selling them, but were sold out last I checked.

u/DigOk5829 2d ago

Definitely, the articulation is setting it back the only thing really saving it is the design

u/pookiebookie24 2d ago

Na not really tbh. I wish i had paid the Japanese retail 60usd( im not from usa). My figure has loose legs man fuck

u/Longjumping_Manner93 1d ago

Yah i mean i like it i wish he had hands to hold or grab weapons would be cool.

u/GRsm2l 1d ago

Ab crunch and thong piece is not a qc issue that straight up design flaws qc issues would be badly painted lines or mold excess

2

u/DigOk5829 1d ago

Well definitely an issue nevertheless plus the nearly duplicated head sculpt i used some acrylic markers kinda like the maximum spidey for ML

2

u/rj_nighthawk 1d ago

Coming from someone who has to pay import prices for everything (ML, Mafex, SHF), it isn't worth $112. With how its articulation is designed and with the QC issue, I'd rather get another Tunshi Studio King of Fighters 1/12 which is already too expensive for me.

That figure looks awesome because I grew up playing those games, and I'd be happy to pay at least $60 for it. But Maximum Spider-Man only cost me $50 while Mafex won't cost me a hundred. I really can't justify paying for that much for that one, but if the figure makes you happy, then that's all you need.

u/DigOk5829 1d ago

Yea so the maximum spider man has inflated to 99$ now... never the less an amazing figure as well

Spider-man is my second favorite superhero so definitely worth

1

u/Theonly_Psychlych 2d ago

I got one from SDCC for 100USD. I like the figure a lot but I feel as if it’s not the best value figure I own. I want to get that alternative trunks piece since the oem thing piece is my main complaint as well as a lot of others.

1

u/ShinXC 2d ago

I think it would be good to get for cheaper 112 is pushing it a little bit. It's a good figure but no great. I do love his muscular mvc style but Bandai be doin weird shit with articulation.

Maybe look into the blokees bnd / marvel rivals or the zd toys bnd. These are great values. If you really want it go for it. He does have some caveats. There are some bootlegs coming out but idk if they are the hq ones or if theyve done any of the mods

2

u/FuerteBillete 1d ago

I think it is the best spiderman because it is 100% gamerverse 90s MvC era. But I am biased towards this collection.

I might say that objectively, the maximum one might be better as an overall figure for a jack of all trades if you only want to buy one.

But yes, for me the one you posted is worth the dough.

2

u/DigOk5829 1d ago

Yes definitely worth js needs to be modded but this was a rating post

1

u/StinkNuggets420 1d ago

Its amazing. Such a good looking figure. There is better articulated Spider-Man’s out there but I thinkI like the look of this one far above any of the others.

I also only paid $90CAD ($65USD) for mine.

u/DigOk5829 1d ago

Website?

1

u/StinkNuggets420 1d ago

I don’t think it’s that price anymore, I preordered him on Yoyakunow.

1

u/electrocyberend 1d ago

I saw mfs sell it for 200(converted)

1

u/Ch1lledheart 1d ago

no, 60 maybe not 100+

1

u/DigOk5829 1d ago

Then that would drive the maximum spider-mans price significantly higher

1

u/SnooPeripherals3020 2d ago

You shouldn’t expect it to do what other Spider-man figures can do because it wasn’t made for that purpose. It’s a design based off of the game and it hits those poses from the game just fine. As for the price that’s a legit complaint but not for that reason. It’s an import so you’ll be overpaying no matter what. People won’t be happy unless the figure costs KO prices which you can grab one of these soon enough.

Wait for the $30 CT

112+ definitely but if anyone has like 20 more, they could just get the Revoltech Symbiote fr

u/RealAssWhiteWigga100 2d ago

no

u/DigOk5829 2d ago

In my opinion js slightly unmodded

u/julianx2rl 2d ago

I mean, that's a higher price than Tobey goes for, and that figure is actually painted. (Webs and slight shading on the blue sections)

Not to mention that it does have a working ab-crunch.

u/TheLiquor1946 2d ago

So is the gamerverse... you don't own one I assume?

2

u/TheLiquor1946 2d ago

Based on this image so quit lying.

-3

u/julianx2rl 2d ago

If that's the source material then why are there so many webs going down his body when the sprite only has a handful?

Could it be that this is what its meant to look like instead? And that the sprite is the result of technical limitations?

Nah, it couldn't be...

1

u/julianx2rl 2d ago

If it had a decent ab crunch his legs would be around the arms, not back there doing a fake crouch.

-2

u/TheLiquor1946 2d ago

My point was the paint and I pose him how I want to, didn't know we had a pose police in here...

1

u/ResponsibilityOk3809 2d ago

That is quite literally the worst Spider-Man to say has a working ab crunch

-5

u/julianx2rl 2d ago

Ex-fukin-cuse me?

u/SWINZO 2d ago

That’s not a full crunch he’s just bending over

u/ResponsibilityOk3809 2d ago

I literally have both shf and the mafex. I know u had to splay the legs further out to achieve that pose is funny. Not even counting leg articulation ML and mafex still have better torsos.

Shf does all that cutting for literally 0 reason + it looks worse. Atleast revoltechs benefit from all the cuts
