Spider-Man Retro 2026 Wave with Cardiac, Owl & Hypno Hustler

This is why Marvel Legends is such a difficult tightrope to walk. They relaese a comic accurate variant that has never been made before and have some fans lamenting that it wasn't Spider-Woman, a character who has been released numerous times previously - that would have had some fans complaining about revised figures instead of new ones..

Personally the Kurt Spidey was my favorite figure in the wave that wasm't Cardiac or Hypno Hustler.

You're absolutely right. A brand new costume/version should definitely be embraced. My interest in modern comics has completely waned in the past 10 years, so a brand new version of Nightcrawler from a recent mini-series isn't my cup of tea, and that's my bias. My ideal version of "modern" characters will be captured by the completed Astonishing X-Men and New Avengers standing side-by-side in the display

I got him because I love Nightcrawler. And I think the suit looks cool as hell. I'll probably end up putting an unmasked head on at some point. But the figure and design are just so cool. I'll buy just about any Kurt they put out. Miguel is also a really good figure. He needed that update. I think the Jessica Drew figures are about perfect as is. Maybe pinless and double elbows could help? But I always liked the Moonstone buck. It wasn't the anorexia look alot of the other females had.

I’ve always thought the similarities between Nightcrawler and Spider-Man have been neglected/needed exploration in comics. Was always surprised they had very few run ins, as far as I’ve read. So Nightcrawler moonlighting as Spider-Man is like an adolescent dream come to life. I love the concept even if I haven’t read the book and know nothing of its execution. It’s just a genius pairing.
