this one is not bad as the tentacles pretty much ARE the base and as someone pointed out could even maybe be a sentry robot and not doc oc himself
I'm that way too, I'd rather have the base be themed after the character. Just a preference thing, I still think this base is very cool. Maybe there will be a Spidey PF for every rogue.

The more I look at this the more I think this would make a better symbiote suit statue.

1. The fact he is tearing a Doc Oc tentacle apart doesnt fit with peters persona I think of. He was more of an immobilizer, than a destroyer of any of villians (maybe that is the 90s animated show in me though)

2. Also he is tearing the tentacle apart with one hand and his foot, while have his attention elsewhere and focused on his next move. I could see peter having that strength with his symbiote suit, but not really in his regular form.

3. Purely aesthetic. I think his chest being so open and flexed, makes it perfect for showing off the white spider on his chest.

4. His camera on the base is the only thing that makes me think the original costume is better, becuase i dont remember him setting up his camera, while he was using his symbiote suit.

I don't remember Peter being any stronger with his symbiote suit. In the comics at least. (I wasn't interested in the animated series.) It 'just' created its own webbing and could morph into Peter's civvies.

Sideshow’s modern take on costumes has been hit or miss but I guess because I already have 4 different classic suit Spideys in 1/4 I would’ve preferred slightly more risk with this costume than the few extra lines sideshow threw on it.

Figures the character I’d like to see more updated has the closest to traditional costume out of all the modern updates sideshow has done recently. Ever so slightly disappointed by this.

Anyway, here’s to classic suit 1/4 Spidey #5. I barely collect anymore but I’m in for this.

I would like something different 1/4 Spideys though. Noir, PS4, MCU, a teenage 1960s Ditko version with the web pits, stealth costume, one of the modern Spidey armors...just something else exciting.

Also, classic Kraven and Hobgoblin would be cool, but sideshow’s Spidey foes typically leave me underwhelmed (Rhino is still my only).

You're going to get another Venom and Carnage PF instead.

I’d be down for that. Preferably the first costume.

If they make a Doc Oc as a companion piece wonder how they’ll design it. The four tentacles are already on Spidey’s base...unless you have 4 switch outs going into the ground it wouldn’t display well with this piece.
