He looks like a cool dude.

I will not hold my breath for SS to make villains it’s ridiculous in all these years they still haven’t .

SS wants products they can sell 5000 of....see Symbiote Spidey.

Great pics Subby! This could be the best Spidey statue yet made. For me, Electro is still the one to beat.

Regardless, an absolute must have for anyone who considers themselves a Spidey fan.

Cool and thanks for the pics.
Nice personal review.
Vulture look perfect next to it.


Apart from the fact that the tentacles can not be 100% positioned same way with every statue (as supposed). Your statue is flawless indeed.
Saw two small concerns with some other ppl statues, which yours does not have.

Congrats, the modern portrait you like the most, is the best i've seen. I like both equally, but prob display classic one myself.

XM did a good job with the silver metal look of the tentacles. They used a bronze like weathering over the silver, which give it a perfect realistic look.
Plain silver can easily make a statue look cheap.
Also the color of the teeth (both heads) is very realistic. When I saw details like that with first inhand pics, it convinced me this is what I bought it for.

For the price, I wish it came with one switchout tentacle. Been a while receiving a large statue, can't wait.

Thanks for words friends. It’s such a cool piece . You can’t not notice it when you walk into a room . Gary I agree Electro was awesome but his massive base was set back for as it made dinner plate hard to place where I needed it . Same with Lizard. I really like villains with the brick rumble bases. It matches them more . Doc Ock, vulture , scorpion , venom , green goblin all have these it makes them more uniform .

Subby,
I just noticed one little Oopsie they had with yours.

It is not a 'flaw' but unique overlooked mistake. Do you want to hear it, or better not mentioning?

It is something they changed from proto to production.

[Subby1938]

There are no mistakes . This is how XM wanted this pieces to look . No sense comparing production to prototype . There is only one prototype and they never promised us exact matches anyways .

I was under the impression no coins would be falling out of the bag.....

I am not talking about compairing proto to present outcome.

Look at your belt buckle (right side of coat).
Compare it with post799 from Grumpy (first picture/is also an inhand statue).

XM had this coat-strap buckle, first designed at right side and they changed it to the left side going in production.
They did this for overall look, so not having all the straps at one side and all buckles at other.

But yours got these buckles at both sides, right should be the strap and left the buckle.
So you have a unique one ;-)

Thanks for posting these great pictures guys; Doc Ock looks absolutely amazing!
Due to a lack of space I had to settle for the Doc Ock bust from Bowen Designs a long time ago and even though I really dig that bust, it is with all due respect not as awe-inspiring as this fantastic full size statue.

Congrats to every fan and collector who can add this statue to their collection!

It is something they changed from proto to production, but yours is still closer to proto.

I want to thank you for your keen eyes. I never noticed that and it’s major error but not end of the world . I brought it up to Todd and Ang they agreed they would help me get proper body . It’s def the old proto body type that was painted and shipped . They both assured me they would take care of this .

I guess this is why we post pictures and at first I was mad to be honest but after breathing lol it gave me opportunity to test out the customer care we hear so much about and both sellers responded with directions for me in zero time . Pretty amazing stuff !

It was not my intention to ruin any mood.

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.
