He does not take more than hulk or Hulkbuster or so many others I could name off. I like the idea being able to stagger displays at diff heights as I don’t have mine inside cabinets . Statues like Lizard and Electro I sold the giant dinner plate base I found more awkward to make them work with other pieces. You can’t force a circle to be anything but a circle so I said goodbye.

Vulture is a great piece, especially in his top position, which is where I think it looks best. Very underrated and one of the best in this line.

TBH, the only two that I wasn't a fan of were Sandman(just too big) and Kraven(just didn't like it). I'm not a fan of the upcoming Green Goblin either. It just looks really lack luster to me.

I'm hoping for a Hobgoblin and Symbiote Spidey. Those should complete my Spidey collection.

I def want both of those . The green goblin is best licensed goblin we have so I grabbed him . I don’t mind OG premium format tbh I’m in market for a new Carnage and smaller foot print electro . Kraven and sandman I agree were a bust!

Whoever put this Doc Oc together messed up on the bottom left tentacle.

It should be GRABBING the Building.

I also like the classic head. The bowl cut is classic Doctor Octopus for me. But I really like the shades on the modern head.

My only complaint about this piece is Doc Oc is floating or flying or hovering because his arms mostly aren’t touching anything. I guess the one top claw is kinda gripping something. I know he keys in somehow, but he has the illusion of just floating.
BOTH THE TOP RIGHT [from viewers perspective] & BOTTOM LEFT TENTACLES ARE GRABBING THE STRUCTURE.

THAT IS PRECISELY WHY THE CRACKS ARE WHERE THEY ARE!

It takes some playing with . People are eager to get pics up . The tentacles and claws take a little time to place correctly . Mine were placed in quick to avoid breaking anything when I got it . It’s all good now.

WHY THE CAPITALS WE ALREADY KNOW THIS!!!!

We as in owners . Not everyone posts pictures here some on Facebook I know most of the guys who have received them . Your assessment is correct but not easily achieved because of the fragility of the claws and difficulty getting them into place . Collectors are content not breaking them just for the sake of making it fit or maybe there is a trick to do it . I’m not sure but my bottom claw def does not touch in three places like the top

So to be clear, your statement was unsubstantiated.

Btw, the bottom claw on mine looks just like the correct pics that I posted. Cheers!

Some ppl care, some leave it as is. Yours has perfect paintjob, so exchange is difficult decision.
The body doesn't have to fit some larger specific parts, so another body will fit on this wall also.
Maybe the tenticle will fit better as well. Good luck.
I got lucky with mine. No issues with paint, tentacles, claws, or BUCKLES.
