Hot Toys Spider-Man 3 Sixth Scale Figure (Black Suit Version)

The second of two Spider-Man figures in my collection (I'll post pics of the first one at a later date), this one is the black-costumed version with a highly detailed likeness of Tobey Maguire (something the original sorely lacks).

Normally, the figures arrive quite tight and take some time to loosen up for proper posing.  I had a problem with this figure in that the removable head sculpt didn't separate at the neck but at the body base, which shouldn't have happened.  This resulting in me trying to replace the neck to the body without causing damage to the costume surrounding the neck area.  Unfortunately, I wasn't successful as you can see from the second pic.  At this point, I'm quite tempted to give Sideshow Collectibles a call and see if they can replace this figure.  It's a minor issue but for what these figures run for, I'm certainly going to try and get a replacement.

The specs and summary for this 12" figure are as follows:

  • Authentic and detailed fully realized likeness of Spider-Man in black suit, featuring the likeness of Toby Maguire as Spider-Man / Peter Parker in the Spider-Man 3 movie
  • TrueType body with 30 points of articulation
