I get that. I really do. But McFarlane always had his blue darker like that and the figure really nails his look and style. It truly is one of the best figures Legends have made. The fine line on his webs, the mobility & posibility, just a 10 out of 10 for me. Now the extra heads leave a bit to be desired, but the figure on it's own is damn near perfection in plastic form imo.
Oh yeah, I don't disagree. But I think Max figures are generally fairly overpriced, especially in the Canuckbucks. So you have to -really- grab me to convince me to spend that money. And I like a lighter blue, more cartoon-inspired Spidey. So it's all about my preference and not something Hasbro did 'wrong' or anything like that.
Throw in pinless and a distinct Romita Sr. or Jr. head - you've got a winner. Basically, that figure on the Maximum body.
$50-$60 for something that you know's arms are going to rip at some point and you'll either have to buy another or buy a formerly cheapo Black Panther closeout for $20 in order to fix, or have to riddle with screws in order to fix. That's what put me off the "Ultimate" Bad Idead Deadpool.
Neck range is really limited, hips are very tight, causing some breakage. I haven’t had the problem with the hips; they’re tight, but I’ve been able to move them with care. I like the figure a lot personally, but I could see how others have gotten burned and pissed off by it. Especially given the price.
