Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Gwen Stacy 6-inch Collectible Action Figure Toy, With Spider-Ham Mini-Figure

Product Information

This was already visible with the Doc Ock and Unmasked Spidey set from last week, and it becomes even more obvious with today’s set, Masked Spider-Man and Gwen Stacy. Marvel’s pretty much never going to back down on Uncle Ben, and bringing back Gwen would, I guess, be viewed as a mistake. Under the mask is a Peter Parker face, with more or less the same expression as what’s on the bottom of the mask piece.

Fans can enjoy this 6-inch-scale Gwen Stacy Retro Collection figure, inspired by the character from the Marvel Spider-Man comics. I believe the figure was originally solicited as “Half-Masked Spider-Man”, and perhaps they realized this was too many words to fit on the packaging. I also really like the implementation of the new ankle articulation (like we saw previously on Moon Knight and Spider-Punk). So, yeah, I’m wondering the same thing you’re wondering: isn’t “Masked Spider-Man” just a regular Spider-Man? Gwen did eventually get the Toy Biz treatment in their Silver Age line, one of their many one-off lines distributed through specialty retailers, so she wasn’t entirely left out of the fun.It’s more cohesive, and less of a direct take-off from the standard Spider-Gwen design, making it feel a lot more in line with the classic symbiote Spider-Man design, while still respecting the more character-specific elements of Gwen’s appearance. With the Marvel Legends Series, fan favorite Marvel Comic Universe and Marvel Cinematic Universe characters are designed with premium detail and articulation for posing and display in collections. Gwenpool is figure 1 in the Lizard Series of Marvel Legends, which was our first Spidey-themed assortment of the year. Check out the Marvel Legends Series Spider-man Retro Collection with comic-inspired decos and character depictions.

There are two full-length weblines and two shorter ones, as well as one with a slight hook on the end, for actually using to hang the figure. Her jacket could probably stand to be a few more shades removed from the flesh-toned plastic, but that’s a minor issue. But of course, reviews and an occasional rant can only go so far, that 's why we encourage you to contribute!X-Men, Spider-Man, Daredevil, Hulk, and Fantastic Four all had to make due with loose, comic-based tie-ins. Fans, collectors, and kids alike can enjoy this 6" scale Vintage Collection Marvel Legends Gwen Stacy Figure, inspired by the character. In her case, it’s a new head, upper torso, forearms, hands, and feet, as well as a new jacket overlay piece.
