Spectacular Spider-Man
At Toy Fair, Hasbro had toys from it's Spectacular Spiderman toy line on display, including zoom & go motorcycles, 6" action figures, & super motor heroes.

Hasbro will be making Sinister 6 figures in this line! Each figure will come with a mini spider. Vehicles and playsets are set for this line as well.

I am sooooo getting that black spidey and Vulture. Venom looks basically the same. When will a v2 Ock come out?!

In the Marvelous News Spectacular Spiderman report, they said the Hasbro would be releasing 21 figures in the 6" line this year and they would focus on the Sinister Six.

21 figures may soun dlikea lot but remember that 3/4 of those will be Spidermen.

So far the new figures we know of are:
Venom V2 (claws)
Vulture
Sandman V2
Super Articulated Spidey with different web
Spidey with blue scuba gear
Black Spidey with stealth gear
Lizard V2
Spidet with glider attachment.

theres 8 right there. Hopefully we will get a new Doc Ock and a Shocker by years end.

I know this may sound a little weird, but I actually want to buy all of those toys. And I'm 16! I'm not actually going to play with them. The toys just look pretty cool.

 

[Web-Head408]

Those Vulture and Venom figures look great. Definitely picking those two up.

All I hope for now is a revised Doc Ock and a Shocker figure; which seems to be happening. Some of the other villains would be big bonuses, too.

To comment on my post...

i am that they are planning to complete the sinister six...

i wonder whats that mini spider they are talking about...

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

Wow, those look amazing! Can't wait to pick them up.


Also, I picked up TSSM GG figure today. Completes my collection TSSM Villian figures that are actually out.

Same here. Did you know that the ratio of kids to collectors is 3:1 ?
that means that 25% of people who buy toys are older than the age range (4-10) of the toys.

at first...i dislike collecting toys which is normal for an adult

but my love for comics and media related spidey stuff....made me realize toys are 3-D representation of characters we grew up with

so yeah...the reason i collect toys and others as well is to see them in 3-D form...a cheap art form. hehehe

 

[Ratcrawler]

Well, I have a 3 and a half year old nephew I can technically buy these for and play with. So that's my vicarious life excuse lol

 

[SpaceWay2009]

^lol...

I will eventually buy all of those toys.

 

[Webhead2006]

yea i stoped collecting toys years ago. Though i still collect comics to this day.

 

[atgscl]

ok, so apparently Hasbro sent a mass email to all retailers letting them know to drop the street date on all the new toys and just put them on the shelves now. I know Marvel Universe, Wolverine movie, and Superhero Squad figures had the March release dates. And judging from that SSM poster that was found a few weeks ago, the next wave of Spidey figures probably had a March street date too. There have already been reports of the Ooze playsets being put out so hopefully the Vulture series will be found in a few days!

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

You know what I think? I'm sure they will release the figures in alot of cities, but I really think RI will be one of the last to get them. I really don't know why.

 

[Ratcrawler]

I just found the little big heads on motorcycles at my TRU. Can't wait for those happy meals.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Cool!

 

[atgscl]

any sightings of the new wave that has Vulture?
it was slated for March

 

[atgscl]

well Marvelous News just posted this. Supposedly Hasbro is re-releaseing some older figures that are still clogging the pegs in most stores but now they are including a plastic spider with each figure.

http://marvelousnews.com/index.php?catid=23&itemid=12116

What the hell is their Marketing dep. thinking? Just give us the series with Vulture already!

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

^^ Interesting. Anyybody picking those up? I mean, there are just spiders included this time around, that's all.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

What's a cyber spider mean to do?

 

[atgscl]

I think these 'cyber spider' series figures will sell very poorly becasue most everyone already got a chance at these figures two, three, and even four times already!

I really hope this series isnt going to turn out to be the last nail in the coffin for the SSM toy line. The entire line is already semi-popular with retailers.

I really like the figures for SSM, I plan on getting Spidey, Gobs and Electro here soon. I'll likely end up getting them at Target for around $10 each, unless I can find them at a better price. Anyone know of somewhere online that I can get a better deal?

aside from checking ebay every so often for a good deal, theres not much else out there. HTS just restocked all the figures but they are retail prices. Thats a good backup if your local sotres dont have the ones you want.

Cool, thanks.

I have an Ebay account, I'll check there sometime, though Ebay can be a hassle. I'll keep Hasbro in mind too, if I can't find the figures I want around here.

For now I really just want Spidey and Electro. I love the interchangeable head on Electro.
