Marvel Legends Maximum Series

hmmberto said:
Symbiote Spidey is a little underwhelming to me. After finally releasing a figure worthy of the Maximum label - and price tag - with Thor, this next offering seems to revert back to formula. I don't really care because there are hardly more costumes out there with as many options, but I'd rather see them make the most out of this formula.

I've got my $50 in hand, demanding to buy Maximum Spidey in red/light blue. Romita and Bagley heads and I'm there. Please.
 
Remember Dwight's comments about Magneto and a cloth cape? Do we think he was actually hinting at Doomsday Magneto and not a Maximum Magneto now?

Sensational Spider-Man is my favorite Spider-Man suit. I just love it to pieces.

Also my OCD brain gets annoyed because now Ben, Kaine and Peter have different body sizes which isn't right for CLONES!!

But they've lived different lives! Ben and Peter are still more or less the same size but Kaine is (hilariously) supposed to be way more jacked, yet still super agile. They almost never drew him huge in costume, and then when he was walking around his was John Cena.

Yeah, that's how I see it, too. And wasn't Kaine described in the 90's as a clone defect as well?

Yeah - his body was breaking down but he was also simultaneously a tank. A bit of narrative gymnastics were done to explain why he was drawn so physically different before the clone reveal, likely because it wasn't the initial plan for him when he was first introduced.
 
Yeah buts been less so in recent years. Since he went through "The Other" and stabilized, he still has scarring, but is more or less the same build as Ben and Peter now

Yep, during his Scarlet Spider initial run he was still taller and bigger. That's why the first Kaine Scarlet Spider was on that bigger body. However the height wasn't there, lol. It hardly ever is but what can you do, lol.

Is the Peter Parker head that comes with black costume Maxi Spidey new? I see a lot of Tobey Maguire in that sculpt.

It's been used before on RYV and Kraven two pack Spidey and elsewhere. I think it was the head from the MJ TRU set. I still have them all and use them over anything else they trot out.

But their print keeps getting better, so every reuse it gets better.

Speaking of Kraven, I think all of them have been pretty lackluster. I'd like a new one on a bigger, pinless body with today facial print tech and without the fucking super-hard lion vest.
