That's right, kiddies! The very first Spider-Man offerings from Hasbro are now available. You've got Spider-Man Origins: Signature Series and Spider-Man Origins: Battle Packs now in Toys R Us and presumably other stores.

For those who may not have known, the Signature Series is a collection of 8-9" figures in fabric costumes. The packaging is interesting, but the figures themselves are highly lacking, especially Dr. Octopus, who looks like he has a pillow stuffed down his shirt.

The Battle Packs are even less inspiring. Re-releases of older Toy Biz material, but with sloppier paint jobs than the original releases had. Though if you always wanted a movie Green Goblin figure but missed him the first time around, this is your chance.
 
I'm curious as to what they'll do with the movie figures. The titanium figures are top notch.:yay:
 
Well folks, the Signature Series wore on me over time and I decided to try them out. Spider-Man and Green Goblin, precisely. They're not perfect by any means, but they are nice in a hokey retro way. They're slightly out of scale with the old Famous Covers of nearly ten years ago, but their inner proportions are much better, particularly in the hands and feet.
 
Love new Mysterio but shame they can't make the dome more rounded.

Anyone seen him on Ebay yet?

:woot:

I bought Doc Ock and have him next to my Famous Covers Spider-Man, and yes, Ock is slightly taller, but you dont really notice unless you're actually looking for it.

I'll probably get Punisher when he comes out.

Whats your thought about new Mysterio figure and have you seen him yet?

The dome is alright but I'm sure they could have altered to make it more rounded.

Like to know what others think?

:woot: :meow:

You know, when i first saw the photos, i decided to pass on this line (i have all the animated figures, Famous Covers, Spider-Man Classics, Marvel Legends, movie figures, mini busts, book ends, and a few statues already!)...

But i happened upon it by chance, and loved it in person. He's not quite as stout as i would liike him to be, but the sculpt for his face and head looks excellent, imo....every time i look over at him on my shelf, i cant help but grin, so yes, i think he would make a nice addition to your Doc Ock collection.
 
Thanks Captain. You've sold me on it. I'll be picking him up as soon as I see him in stores.

And let me say that your new avatar is totally awesome :up:
