Not bad? This is a terrible 3 pack, Tom is just a reuse of another figure and Tobey is as ugly as sin. The only redeemable figure here is Andrew. That makes it 1 out of 3 figures being “worth it”
As far as these figures having the dumbell joint necks instead of the disc hinge necks, dumbells are usually better. The problem is that Hasbro is terrible at utilizing import level articulation. It's better for them to just stick with their outdated articulation
100%. At least these pieces can be modified a bit to further improve it but I cannot believe how they'll implement something like this that gives you more limited range than the old methods. Very frustrating. You shouldn't have to modify further.
@commandershepaaarrrdwrex2881 Yeah, Hasbro's drop-down hips are terrible, too. I have the SHF Sailor Moon figures with drop-down hips, and it actually improves the articulation by a lot. She can do the splits both out to the sides and forward and back. Much more range than any of Hasbro's figures, and that's with her skirt in the way even I think Hasbro is just terrible at making figures
Still better than those crappy Spider-Man figures you would get at a random street market in some random country like Armenia or something like that At least these have detail and functioning articulation unlike those abominations
My local Marvel Legends dealer advised me today that all 3 Spider-Men, Tobey, Andrew, and Tom, will be released this December as singles in a wave, along with a Charlie Cox Daredevil and BLADE. No word yet on the other 3 figures in that wave and no word on the build a figure either. Stay tuned.
I like the Andrew Garfield figure but the other two are really disappointing. I think if I’m gonna pay 100 just for that one may as well get the shf and enjoy the accessories and articulation. Shf Tobey is clearly superior than the one here. Good review!
You're not though just paying for one though, you're paying for three. You could sell the other two and get more than half your money back. If you don't like them it's fine, but saying one imported figure is better than three solid figures (one being better than some imports) feels hyperbolic, especially when SHF isn't nailing the accuracy either.
@@lex_rodriguez you’re still paying 100 for one fig may as well do it for one I know will have better articulation accesories and paint. Nobody wants that Tom holland figure. So just selling Tobey it is still too much money for one ml.
It's a shame that even in the promo pics there's misaligned paint on the heads. I wouldn't mind having a Tobey and Andrew Spider-Man figure, but they're not so high on my list that I needed this set. Andrew looks great however Tobey would be the one I'd want the most, but more so one proportioned like his appearances in the Raimi trilogy, ever since those first CG renders the proportions looked off to me with that figure. In No Way Home most of the time it seemed like he was CG when he was wearing the mask and in action scenes so it's harder to tell how different his proportions were, we never really get a great shot of him just standing with the mask on. Either him or his stunt actor had broader shoulders back in 2002-2007, and the head seemed narrower compared to this figure, the SHF version captures that. He just had more traditional heroic looking proportions and this new figure doesn't capture that to me, but I'll give the figure the benefit of the doubt that it's based on the newer movie rather than the older ones. I know they're going back to windowless packaging and I hope that supposed NWH wave is part of that, I think I'd need to see it in person to determine whether I'd get that figure.
I mean, Tobey is a middle aged man reprising a role from 21 years ago, that happens to involve wearing a skintight costume, and it shows... Sure, his digidouble looks very similar to how he looked like in his prime, but I'd say that was more of an oversight, and both figures (ML and SHF) look quite close to the way he does in all of the non-action scenes of him wearing the costume.
@@rickrollerdude Like I said I get that, I'd just prefer a figure based on his earlier appearances. Either way the proportions just look somewhat awkward to me, the SHF I think does a much better job executing a natural body shape, and even things like the masked head shape match up more with what I associate with Tobey than the ML figure.
I honestly love this pack so much despite its many flaws like the no masked heads and the price but my biggest problem is if only hasbro wasn't so stupid and made it available to every retailer and not hasbro pulse exclusive. Cause I tried numerous times to purchase it but it kept rejecting my card, tried getting in touch with their customer service but they were almost no help with me.
@@godzillamaster077 I did I tried my card then my friends but it just kept giving us transaction declined gateway rejected, told them about that but they were just being really stubborn and kept telling me to try a different payment method
12:55 I feel like they might have used the PS4 Insomniac video game as a reference. The Raimi suit is in the game, and the colors on the suit are brighter than they are in the movies. So I feel like they based the colors on that but obviously sculpt on the movie
Nice review, very well laid back! Peter 1 is a semi-fail! Peter 2 is an epic win but Peter 3 is a SUPER-WIN!!! I can’t wait for hasbro to give us a wave 2 of no way home figures with Peter 2 and 3 coming with unmasked head sculpts.
I dont see the point of drop down hips that don't afford any additional articulation. I feel the same about the reverse ab crunch/diaphragm too. It's a great idea, with poor execution. Especially considering that we have to sacrifice a waist twist. A good example, is the Carnage figure, from the venom wave. A simple ab crunch and it bends just as far and looks equally as good, if not better. I just say, stop adding articulation points and focus on maximizing the articulation that we've all more or less come to accept. There are SEVERAL examples of basic ML articulation being done well, without having to add articulation points that don't seem to serve much purpose. ...hell, even toybiz did it... IE. most toybiz Spider-man figures, could do a full splits. Just saying. Having said that, I really like the webbing color on that integrated suit and I'm really diggin the aesthetic of that ASM f8gure! Sik
Its so frustrating to me that two of these figures are new sculpts and instead of learning from their mistake with the dumbbell joint, they double down on them. I dont understand who looked at that neck articulation and said thats good enough for spider-man figures.
Peter 3 is the best figure out of this set. And I’m overall happy to have another Tobey (Peter 2) but I also got the SH figuarts and I like that one better.
I hate the reverse ab crunch so bad. That’s along with the fact Hasbro can’t do a double-ball peg is so frustrating to me. These figures so look great though, aside from being engineered like dookie.
I just have to say All three of these Spider-men figures all look movie accurate. They did a Great job with these figures. I really want to get them so bad. They look Spectacular. 🕷️🕷️🕷️
NWH baf wave wishlist from Marvel legends 1. Doc Ock 2. Sandman '3. Green Goblin 4. Electro 5. Tom's Spider-Man (the new suit) 6. Green Goblin Final Battle Version (Deluxe set) 7. BAF - Lizard
I love the Tobey and Andrew figures, Tom I have no need for, but that price point and lack of accessories does put a damper on it. There is supposed to be a No Way Home way coming at the end of the year where all 3 Spider-Men have their unmasked heads, so there's that, but its still frustrating that this 3 pack did not come with something so essential.
I ultimately enjoy the set Tobey spidey isn’t the best but checks the necessary marks but the Andrew figure is my new favorite marvel legends figure ever
Let's face it Toby and Tom are a letdown, Andrew's is Really fuckin good. So yeah ya know, this was a must buy originally but I'm glad I skipped it, I mean I just don't have the funds for everything and seeing that 2 of the 3 figures are a miss, I will just wait for rereleases. Loved the review though bro.
My Andrew Garfield came with two left thwiping hands and no right one. I was kind of bummed out for that, but other than that, I'm completely happy with the way the figures turned out.
I wanted to put these in their iconic "Statue of Liberty poses" more than anything, but boy it was not easy because of the stupid dumbbell head joints. Why did they decide to go with those instead of the neck hinge?! I managed to do it but not as well I'd like for Tom and Tobey since they're looking more to the side than anything. Andrew was a piece of cake to pose because he's the only one not crouching. I still love this set and I'm happy to finally have it, but like Shartimus I have a few gripes and am a little disappointed about a few things. 😢
you definitely got lucky with your 3 pack. That shartimus luck came in clutch lmfaoo. the paint apps on mine and many others were either missing or completely missed the mark on certain parts. My tobey and andrew have white from the eyes bleeding into the mask and are misaligned and my andrew is missing paint on his arm. Wish Hasbro tried a bit harder with quality control on this pack
I was excited about this 3 pack. After waiting a year for it. I was highly disappointed when I went to pose the Marvel Legends Tobey McGuire Spider-Man and his arm broke right off. My gripes are mainly with his figure. Not because of the broken arm. First off they made Tobey appear to be fat. Fat head, sausage fingers, and lacking big time in posing. They did great on Andrew Garfield and Tom Hollands figures. Just did my favorite Spider-Man Tobey dirty. I also agree he is also a bit to bright. Paint rub on his webbing.
I like these. I ended up un-cancelling and using Pay in 4 on this. I didn't get a Hasbro Tom fig since Infinity War and I actually really like how he looks. Andrew is great and Toby came out nice, minus the non gun metal.
I think it would be perfect if it had the head sculpts, and if Tobey’s suit was a shade or two darker. That red does throw me off too. Maybe it won’t be too noticeable in my dimly lit room lol
Andrew's amazing Spiderman is the star from this set, even though the red is a bit too dark (and should be satin finished) and the blue should be less vibrant, and the webbing is gunmetal / dark steel colour, but alas custom wouldn't be a problem, but still...an amazing figure.
I remember collecting a crap load of Spider Man figures and almost eventually losing all of them from the movies either by losing them or them falling apart. So the fact of Hasbro re releasing them with different sculpts is exciting and they look better!
Minor gripe that Tobey’s web lines are silver. In reality they are supposed to be gun metal black like the SHFiguarts one and under different lighting conditions that’s when they appear silver. Painting it just silver makes it appear white under harsh lights. Anyways, I’m still happy to see that we have a new Tobey fig. I hope it’s not the last
@@chewymew Still better than those crappy unlicensed Spider-Man figures you would find at a street market in some random country like Armenia or something
@@ShartimusPrime but it is possible with one set a bigger ball joint next to top of the neck and the end to the head a small one, just try it, ingeniering teachs me something at least
@@El_capitanazo I'm open minded enough to want to see it. Which figure has a single dumb-bell joint with more range of movement than a ball joint with a hinge?
I was massively disappointed with these. The hands on Tobey’s and Andrew’s figures seem WAY too small, and the boots don’t go high enough on the calves. It bugs the heck outta me
I love the look of this set great to see the web lines filled in sucks the price is high The Amazing Spiderman is my favourite from this wave i hope i get lucking scoring these in the UK having all 3 would be perfect :)
It sucks because I already have the integrated suit Spider-Man from no way home, and I actually painted the webbing and it looks exactly like this. So if I were to purchase this, it would be just for two figures. Granted I can sell it, but I prefer to keep my work rather than sell it for hasbro labor. 😂. I’m dying to find somebody who is selling Tobey Maguire. That’s all I’m looking for.
Am I the only person who thinks both this repainted version and the previous one of the Integrated Suit portray the suit color incorrectly? I've watched the movie many times now. It was the red and black upgraded suit with the gold trim from the iron suit added (integrated) onto it. At what point are the black sections suddenly any chase of blue or bluish gray?? Even during filming he just wore the red and black suit and they used CGI to change the look in post right? Both of these are color inaccurate to me. Sorry just had to get that off my chest. Otherwise, I agree. The Garfield Spidey is easily the standout of the 3, definitely the best movie Amazing Spidey figure, and possibly my new favorite ML Spidey in my collection! Great review as always @ShartimusPrime !!!!
Tobey is sculpted like a melted snowman. When we have companies like Jada Toys giving us QUALITY for $25, it just makes it so much more obvious how much the legends team doesn’t care about their customers. This is a half assed three pack. And that stupid ab articulation is so bad. Just do the gi Joe ab articulation and you’ll get much better sculpt and range. Spider-Man STILL can’t do full splits in 2023? The legends design team truly is clueless
Honestly very disappointed especially w the price point, the neck articulation is horrible, and the leg and an crunch is just not spiderman material. Much happy with imports ag I know more expensive more quality but still Hasbro could have def done better with the price point
The problem is Hasbro doesn't know how to make action figures. These might have been impressive in 2010, but not nowadays, especially compared to their competition
Thanks for the review Shart ! As expected, I don't regret not ordering it. A reuse, a missed mark and a figure barely better than a 2014 import. It baffles me how they charge 30-35$ a pop and they don't have good neck, hips and toe articulation. I can forgive a lot, but not bad articulation on a Spider-Man. I have passed all of them since the RYV one. It's probably the super hero character with the most figures made and sold of it every year. (Maybe tied with Batman) They should know how it should be done by now. With the money saved, I preordered the SHF 2099, I think it'll be way more worth it.
I heard someone say when they re release with a head sculpt, that the Tobey should be the symbiote suit and andrew asm1 worh the gold lenses so that way we don’t feel so screwed lmao
Hahahahaha I like the idea of the who is spiderman but the way you did it was better. With the durpy voice and the camera moving so fast and out of control. And the reference of the Fantastic Four with the movie toy biz Thing knocking down the big time let down spiderman. Shartimusprime you are the best man ever and the funniest.
I told myself if I heard Shart call Spider-man"s web patterns "cobwebs" one more time, that I would unfollow. Think about how lame Spidey would look with dusty old cobwebs all over him.😂
What Iv noticed that nobody seems to point out is that they used better quality plastic because they feel solid when posing opposed to the gummy soft plastic we have been getting lately.
Not only Tobey, but I’m pretty that Andrew doesn’t just have flat out black web line, he had gun metal weblines too on his suit, but it was just a bit darker than how Tobey’s were, he also had a gun metal spider symbol just like Tobey too, at least SHF made Tobey’s weblines and spider symbol the correct gun metal color as it should be, that colors overall were just great on the SHF version, and I’m also pretty sure that Andrew was a slightly brighter red and had pretty much the same suit colors as Tobey but his red was more metallic which Hasbro god right, but the red should’ve been a tad brighter and maybe the blue should’ve been more like a navy blue, or maybe it already is, Idk, but still tho, Andrew also has gun metal weblines and even his spider symbol too, oh and one more thing I want to point out is that Tobey’s lenses were all a gun medal color in the movies, not black or grey like the SHF and marvel legends figure had, the SHF and Marvel legends figures both should’ve had gun metal silver lenses, and they should really paint Andrew’s souls and give them the accurate soul details that they had in the movie, even for Tom
@@lex_rodriguez If you look at his suit in some of his movie renders or posters,for TASM2, it is a darker gun metal grey color for his web lines and spider symbol, I’m not joking, even in the movie itself, they were like that, maybe a certain angle of the lighting made seem like they were black but they’re really the same and Tobey’s weblines, just a tad darker
I don't know where the guys who design action figure got the idea that the web pattern on the Tobey MaGuire Spider-Man costume is supposed to be silver. They've been doing that crap going all the way back to the ToyBiz days and I've always hated it. It doesn't look silver at all in any of the movies. It either looks dark gray or even black, but definitely not shiny bright silver. It totally ruins the look of the figure for me. And this one is the worst offender yet.
