I definitely still prefer the look of the comic paint version or the reissue version to this. The problem is that the colors on this new one harken back to the Romita Jr. or even Ditko eras, whereas the overall style of the figure still looks like Bagley or McFarlane. It creates an incongruity. If they wanted to give us a truly classic Spidey, they should've given this release a new headsculpt with smaller eyes, along with the lighter blue. Great review, yours is the only one I've seen which shows a comparison between all four paint variations. Btw, I definitely prefer the camera light on.
@@DCSG81 I skipped the reissue because the blue was too shiny and the wrong shade to be the 90's. This new one matches up pretty well to the Marvel Vs Capcom game, which had a 90's Spidey in classic colors.
Lights on. The figure pops from the background. Some suggestions could be playing with your exposure and white balance. A defuser could help with the harshness, but definitely light on.
Nice details on this figure!. As far as the lights go- the bright light is a bit too bright, but the other light is kind of darkish. ( if that makes sense) . Maybe something in between is best?. You know, to be honest I’ve never liked dipping my figures in water, I prefer the hairdryer method. This is a decent looking figure, nice paint job. Thanks for sharing. And Merry Christmas to You and your Family my friend. Cheers!.
Me too, I preferred non-wet method too… hahaha.. Have a Joyful Merry Christmas, best of health and safety and lots and lots of joy and happiness to you and your family, Mark!
Thank you for this review. Honestly, I only have a bootleg of the 075 and planned on getting this one. You just confirmed that I really want it. I know it's accurate to actually nothing (or perhaps the start of the Ultimate Spider-Man comics, I don't know) but I like its coloring. The metal paint threw me off which is why I skipped on getting the 075 one. Now I kinda regret it. In the best of world, you would get a 075 version and the Classic Costume version.
@@DCSG81 I got it, after getting the Black Spidey. I don't regret it, I think the Marvel Legends and Mafex figures are going well together. I kept my bootleg for spare parts, we never know.
Got mine but haven't opened it yet. I need self space. This figure looks like the definitive version to own. The others are nice but this one a faithful to it's classic design.
The eyes not áre the same of the Classic head. Mafex maked the same head in all yours Spiderman, type Mc Farlaine. This is a bad decision. The rest of the figure is beautiful. Grettings My Dear friend.

Yeah I agreed, they should have at least change the head sculpt..

@@johnchow3308 That's a good point, it does look right out of MvC.
@@Synthetic_Strigiforme yep! i got mine precisely for that reason ^ u^
Nothing wrong with mixing eras. I think it looks amazingly good.
Your poses are getting better i see🔥🔥
Thank you man!! Appreciates it
Without the lights is better ✌🏻
Okay!
I honestly didn't get a chance to get any of the Mafex Spider-Men. So I'm certainly going to get this one.
Yeah it’s a good one
Great review. Going to pick this spiderman up
Yes he’s a beauty
please do without lights, reason is that the colors look natural without lights, light makes color saturated.
Cool thanks for letting me know!
Lights on. The figure pops from the background. Some suggestions could be playing with your exposure and white balance. A defuser could help with the harshness, but definitely light on.
Cool thanks for your feedback!
How well do the mafex spidermen scale next to the neca 1990 movie ninja turtles and shredder?
Hey Dc What color blue is on the spider-man figure mine came in with scratches on it and I was wanting to know what is the color called
Erm... I am not sure.. you might want to bring along your figure when you go buy your paint... maybe it's called sky blue?
@@DCSG81 good idea and thanks man
Turn the light on and keep it on... Put a filter on it though (a sheet of paper will do). Do the same thing that you would do for an ACBA photoshoot.
Ahh I get you… but the light ring is kinda big.. got to find a huge paper to cover it
I’m so torn, I don’t know if I should get the reissue or the 185 spidey
The light blue one will be better since it carry the iconic look
Nice details on this figure!. As far as the lights go- the bright light is a bit too bright, but the other light is kind of darkish. ( if that makes sense) . Maybe something in between is best?. You know, to be honest I’ve never liked dipping my figures in water, I prefer the hairdryer method.

@@DCSG81 🙏🙏🙏🎅🧑🎄🤶🎄☮️
Great review btw looks better without the lights 2:37
That’s why I thought too…

Thanks so much for your feedback and support!

You are most welcome!!
I hoped you get him too.. have you?

I do wish we could've gotten an unmasked head or a partially unmasked head with maybe a slice of pizza or a camera maybe.
A partially unmasked head will be awesome!
Best Mafex box *EVER*
Oh yeah Hahahah
Which one do you suggest me to buy if Im looking to buy only one spiderman fig?
I would recommend the latest light blue version as it very classic look
Got mine but haven't opened it yet. I need self space. This figure looks like the definitive version to own. The others are nice but this one a faithful to it's classic design.
Yeah it has nice painting
Nice detail and colorization on this guy i just got this guy on bbts and tbh im scared because of the figures wrist pegs
Hahaha
Easy like for using the 90s spidey theme.
I traded my reissue spare for this. My reissue display is now being stored in box.
Cool trade!
Awesome review!
Thanks so much, man!
@@DCSG81 no problem!
Bro, can you put a battle damage head sculpts by rxtproject
Yeah I did, you can check it out in my channel for the head swap
dude, you should try swapping the shoulders, I need a tutorial 🤣
Yeah I’m worried about that mean mine comes
Yes I’ll make one soon please stay tuned!
i prefer the light!
It does have a swivel at the foot i'm not talking about the pivot side to side
I see
I prefer with lights and I think you need to swap your shoulders since a lot of reviews had that problem
Yeah I heard about the shoulder too
with light
Really? It’s not too bright?
lights on bro
Alrighty!
Mine is coming
Cool, congratulations!
@@DCSG81 just got it today my first mafex
Which is the best for you?
The light blue one

Yeah I did, you can check my head swap video
First. Also amazing video!
Thank you!!
No lights for me
Cool.. thanks!
The eyes not áre the same of the Classic head. Mafex maked the same head in all yours Spiderman, type Mc Farlaine. This is a bad decision. The rest of the figure is beautiful.
Grettings My Dear friend.
