True. Every round of Spidey related figures, we know what they’re offering. So it’s cool they switched it up with these vinyl figures. Would be great if the PFs could follow. Although I guess they almost did with the latest round of PFs on those sub par forced perspective bases. But mainly because Venom and Carnage are already in stock.

Yeah, the movie did boost their popularity. I’ve been reading Miles since UF#4 but it’s cool to see the growth of the character. Especially after all the complaining when he debuted and the continual complaining from a few folk.

Like I posted before, I had Miles and he came broken and they had no replacements so I returned it. But although cool, it felt like it shouldn’t have cost as much as it did. I hate to say it felt cheap because I really dig the art of it. I’m tempted to get Peter but I remember my reaction to opening up Miles and how light and “less expensive costing” it felt lol. so I think I’ll just stick to statues.

I love the first one, too. For me it’s one of the best Spider-Man movies, up there with Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2 and No Way Home. It’s probably the one I’ve repeat watched the most because it’s fun.

That said, this one joins it as one of the best Spider-Man movies to date. We already knew this was a Part 1 of 2 early on, especially since the original name literally was “Part 1”. As far as the tone of the movie and thematically, I’d say it’s what Empire Strikes Back is to A New Hope.

Avoid spoilers. There’s some cool stuff and implications in this movie.

Awesome! Thanks for that. Will try to stay clear of social media and YouTube for a few weeks. Can?t wait. Empire Strikes back of Spider-Man has me excited.
