Grabbed the pre-order this morning. I'm 100% committed to this line and this fig looks great. BUT...now hear me out. I think Mezco is up to some trickery with the "Exclusives" The release of the Classic Punisher (limited to 400 units) has put collectors and more importantly speculators on tilt...
Reading this thread, people are a little too passionate about Mezco's interpretation of these characters. It's like those who don't like the figures just can't deal w/ the fact that others really enjoy them. Stop being such haters and get use to the fact Mezco is putting out a quality product...
2016 will be the year 1/12 scale figs (specifically Mezco) begin to take a bite out of the Hot Toys money grab.
Many collectors will be content with a 6in figure as long as it has a premium feel similar to HT at a $70ish price.

Occasionally i open the detolf and re-pose my my HTs just to keep them fresh. Well, the posing options and overall articulation of...
It's pretty basic, the center of the web is a clear line similar to fishing line but much thicker. I found in the hardware store near the wall hanger supplies. Then the wire is the smallest Guage metal wire I could find. Wrapped it one way down the clear line then back the other way.
The more I posed this figure, the more I enjoy what HT has created with a good articulated spidey. Unfornunately the webs that he comes with really are terrible and replacements web options are not a great solution either. Made some webs myself, what do you think? The scale seems to fit 1/6 i think.
