When the newest Hasbro Marvel Legends Spider-Man retro wave was announced it was easy to sarcastically say "Yay, more Spidey, some redo villains, and Hammerhead." While I don't have Shocker or Hobgoblin in hand yet, I will say Hammerhead is cool while Symbiote, Ben Reilly, and Spider-Armor MKI are nice upgrades. Or if you don't have previous version, here's your chance!

Legend has it, everytime Robo tears up a card, he feels a sense of euphoria knowing that somewhere, a mint on card collector is dramatically screaming at the screen. 🤣
I.....can't deny that claim, haha!
I love it when he does that. The more people do that the more valuable my mint in box stuff becomes.
Me
Bro, i buy these for my children to play with lol.
@@lazylefthand by "children" you mean your inner child? Lol
The best thing about Robo is that he likes to open all figures in one whole instead of doing separate reviews along with his customizing is great and his play days are perfect, While this 2nd Retro Spiderman wave is cool, I'm still going to get Gamerverse PS5 Miles Morales, Retro Spiderman 2099, Retro Sandman, and Morlun
Gamer Miles is amazing, I haven’t opened my Sandman but he seems cool and be careful with 2099 I keep seeing people complain it breaks & such.
@@SeanBeanie4191 Retro Sandman is such a good figure, aside from the biceps feeling like they could break from any moment
@@SeanBeanie4191 The thigh swivels are frozen on mine.
@@alandoane9168 did you try warming the joint up?
@@SeanBeanie4191 Multiple times.
Hasbro needs to keep the first retro Spidey in circulation... a basic Spidey would be an evergreen if they could keep it out there....
They need to keep one with wall-crawling hands and web effects and an extra head in circulation. A deluxe spider-man in circulation would print money until the end of time
Fwoosh is amazing. Words don't describe the joy I feel when a new Fwoosh video comes out.
Aw, I appreciate that!
"three spider-mans and a hammer head... and a microphone" is like a alt song.
The rectangles on the hands of black suit spiderman are accurate to the cartoon. It's not most people's preferred look, but at least it is based on something.
The good news is that the previous black suit hands fit on this new figure.
Ah, that makes sense. I didn't watch the cartoon so I didn't make the connection.
I was confused why everyone seems to get upset about it. The package literally looks like the cartoon into. I was under the assumption these figures were all based on the 90's cartoon.
@@dglenn247 They're not, for the most part. Just the packaging is meant to evoke the original packaging.
Funny enough, Jon Favreau played Foggy Nelson in the 2003 Daredevil movie.
Haha, that's what shot into my brain, for whatever reason.
I love that they're redoing Spidey figures on the new body mold. I hope they redo Superior Spider-Man and Big Time Spider-Man.
I'd definitely take both of those!
I love that black suit Spider-Man
I know everyone's going to gush over the symbiote, but I think that the armored version is absolutely the best figure in this wave. Good luck to everyone getting the ones they want!
I have both they're super dope in different ways
I can't pick a favorite. Hammerhead is really well done, Shocker despite some paint issues is still a lot of fun, and I don't care what anyone says I really dig that Hobgoblin. I never found that last version or the older Zemo so it's mostly new parts to me, and it captures the character enough for me to be more than happy with it.
I would agree if he wasn't the PS4 design
@@SoftEndy he's evocative enough of the comic version, that I don't mind. If we're going to hold ML to comic accuracy, then we might as well bin 75% of them right now.
@@TheQuikMix It wouldn't be a problem, but they put him in the retro Animated Series packaging.
I know that the new Spidey model is going to be used for a very long time, but I think, as Robo mentioned, it only works with some designs. The mold is a little chunky, but the original Spidey and Black suit makes it appear thinner. The Ben Reilly suit looks so odd, with a chunky neck, small head, and chunky torso.
It's better than the long booty pizza spidey mold.
There needs to be a good inbetween. If they could take the Gamerverse miles and size that up.
The legs on the back logo of armoured Spidey makes me think of Tetris!
The armored up Spiderman is the one I’m looking forward to the most. I loved them putting it in the PS4 game but, it will always remind me of the PS1 game. I always tried to keep it as long as possible.
Armored up? Armored down, more like! Poor li'l guy.
When are we gonna get a possibly suggestive t-shirt that says “Forward facing pin for rocker”?
When you got to articulation of the black suit, I was expecting you to go, “ok, let’s do this one last time.”
I'm not kidding when I say that there silver Spider Armor figure is genuinely one of my most wanted figures. I'm so glad to finally be getting one!
I remember Armored Spider-Man from issue #100 of "Web of....". I think it had one of those holo-foil covers. I'm gonna look for that figure AND that issue now! hahaha
This figure is exactly the secret wars symbiote upgrade I was looking for!
Uncle Ben: With New Figures comes empty Wallet
Even though I have 2 of these figures already you know I’m gonna still watch it 😏
I generally prefer the Sensational Ben Reilly design when the logos match the blue of the suit so that the torso doesn't look like a t-shirt, you know? Unless it has Bagley's proportions of broad shoulders and a good v-shape to the body, the design looks INCREDIBLY boxy at times (much like this figure). Having them be blue allows the logos to bleed into and flow with the suit instead!
For some reason, the allure of the Sensational suit is really dependent on the artist at hand, where it either looks like one of the best spidey suits of all time, or it's super awkward lmao
I ended up customizing my Mafex Ben with a metallic blue over the logos and rest of the suit, and WOW, it makes such a difference! I really recommend it for any Ben Reilly enthusiast
"more plastic for more people" Love that
Mmmm, mmmm, that aroma of fresh new action figures. Nothing else like it.
The web piece with the bend in the middle looks like it’s meant for Hammerhead’s bat specifically, like he knocked it out of Hammerhead’s hand and webbed it down.
Was lucky enough to get all Spidey figures online at Target except for Ben Reilly and Black Suit Spiderman. Both are on backorder. Thanks Target
The sneaky pose had me LOLing
I'm definitely getting the symbiote and armored Spideys.
Yes, retro wave…. More please!
I really love how the simbiote spiderman look
I was planning on buying the whole wave except for spider armor but after watching this I might change my mind, but anyways they’re all pretty good
Spider-Man is one of the strongest Marvel characters and I've always preferred a physique that exemplifies this. I've never liked him looking like a twig next to Captain America or whoever. While I still love and appreciate different interpretations, bulkier Spider-Man gets taken more seriously in my opinion, and I prefer that.
I totally get that, and maybe that's why I'm gravitating to this new one more than I thought I would. But I still dig the thing, spidery contortionist look too.
All great looking figure. Something about Hammer Head with his Gangster Chic.
The blue on the Ben Reilly figure is eye catching and black suit Spidey just looks classic.
Can't wait for Robo to review Shocker.
Robo, Where it's at by Beck is my all time favorite song. You rock.
They were nice glad I pre-order not happy that i am still waiting but my day will come
Cool cloaked iron man on the soundproof foam!
👏👏👏👏👏 dig them all!!!!
Legends have it !!! All my hero and villains will be purchased securely when it comes to marvel legends
I just got the armored Spiderman today. I think that figure falls into the realm of a work of art. 99% of figures I buy need to be posed at least minimally to bring them to life on the shelf. I feel like this armored version looks perfectly ready for action in his yearbook pose.
Everyone gets Symbiote but me :(
Sandman BAF Black Spider-man: But you still have me!
Me: I never loved you!
Definitely a solid enough wave to get a solid foundation of Spider-man figures. Add on Sandman and maybe Venom(if you got him).
Removing the vest from Hammer Head gives him awesome articulation and he looks amazing.
The armored Spidey was the one I looked forward to the least but after owning it, it's become my favorite spiderman figure even with less articulation... In a flight stand for jumping poses, his details in sculpt makes him stand out so much! Now I just wish they would do a future foundation white suit with that kind of detail
I pre-ordered Ben Reilly and Black Suit, but dammit now I need the Armored one too lol
The armor suit actually has an additional texture on the neck. Incredible detail on the black and silver. Like a batman version of spiderman.
Love it, Robot. I've found Shocker and Hammerhead, but I'm still waiting on pre-orders and pounding the pavement for those sizzling spiders!
That new black costume spider man would make a great black panther. Just remove the spider and you got t'challa
Officer thinking.
Personally I only want the armored Spiderman. I don't want to buy anymore of the figures with pins in them since they are just going to re-release all of them on the updated pinless bodies.
The hoodie design is the best design
I'm really happy that Black Suit Spidey is on retro. He feels more closer to the Defalco/Spec and Black Cat era than the one on Pizza did.
Just got my Ben Reilly today I’m so excited
Man, I can't wait for that Armored Spidey! You've talked me into Hammerhead. I'm still skipping the Hobgoblin tho, I don't know how you can get better than the BAF version. It's on of my all time favorites
Got my Armored Spidey this week and I like it way more than I expected. Like you showed in your review, there's allot of details you can't appreciate until you get it in hand. I don't mind that it isn't a classic comic version. It's just going to be part of my Spider-verse display and variations fit right in.
Yep when I first saw this figure online I was always thinking they were Secret War hands and not for wall crawling. 😄
When robo called the happy figure foggy he wasn’t technically wrong. As long as people remember 2003 Daredevil.
I wish the armored Spider-Man was not so short. He should have been the same size as a regular Spider-Man.
Wow you can do anything you could play them
the Armor spicy was in the tv show too and he had a shield as well.
Thanks Robo! Appreciate you as always! Stay Blessed bud!
I have no attachment to that Spider-Armor look but damn that figure looks good. Shimmers like a disco ball.
The cool thing I’ve been noticing is that Tom Hollands spidey is libeling up to be the more classic spidey from the 60’s and that’s why there lining him up for the classic Secret Wars story
7:35 Summer 2015, Robo!!!
I have Shocker and Armor MK-I. I'd love to get Ben Reilly and Symbiote
I honestly love your reviews. Keep up the great work!
That armored Spider-Man seems to share some engineering DNA with the armored Daredevil, though if it they DO share some kind of base it's heavily modified, with a lot of those Gamerverse details like what the other Spider-Armor and Miles had. Welcome additions to the shelf!
LOVE that Spidey body and eye size… I’m an old-schooler who vastly prefers the 70s/80s look to Spider-Man than the skinnier modern interpretations.
Damn it, I'm gonna have to get that Armored Spidey.
Yes Such a great set
perfect wave
That symbiote suit version is awesome. Can't wait for a 2099 review.
It’s been fun to see all these get snatched up and put up on reseller apps for triple the price
I can now fully enjoy this video because I have the full wave .
I freakin love that hammerhead, I just wish they put black lines on that new shocker figure
On the quilted parts of his costume, you mean?
@@alandoane9168 yes
Interestingly, Pulsecon Venom had the same textured paint for his white spider logo. I wonder if Hasbro's testing out a new process. Great review as always, Robo!
Thank you 🙏🏿 for your review I was on the fence about buying black suit Spider-Man because I had a smaller size one and it was cheap and it had a broken left arm but after seeing your review and articulation of the figure I had to buy it I love how detailed it is and the rectangular back hand white paint is not bad at least they painted it white the one I had didn’t that’s how I knew it was a knockoff
Amazing review
I was so lucky with my symbiote. The pain couldn’t have been more perfect. I decided against the mafex because a lot of people complained about poor paint application and for that price its just not acceptable.
Hammer Head isn't bad, but he is a but shorter than I expected. He may work better with a Pizza Spiderman to look a bit buffer.
He's not meant to be tall so much as wide.
I think that bended web from the armor spider is for hammerhead's bat
Where I’m from in Cali we got shocker and goblin but no Spider-Man figs
This is gonna be good. :)
breaks my heart how do you open those boxes jajaja Great review :)
It's okay, Robo. I don't hold it against you.
Though I'm floored at how perfect the timing was for a brand-new Ben Reilly Spider-Man figure, considering that not only have we got Spider-Man Beyond, but Ben Reilly: Spider-Man #1 just hit comic racks last week.
I wish the figure had been given a new head with bigger eyes, though. Gotta do some headswaps, see if there's one I like.
When are we going to get a Tarantula figure?! Am I the only one on the planet that remembers this guy? He was very cool and appeared back in the Jackal and early Punisher appearances of Amazing Spiderman. Uugghh, why do I even bother?
Your videos are therapy sessions, Robo. very enjoyable
They absolutely are.
Got the armored Spidey aka Spider armor mk1 aka Web Armor. Really impressed with that one even if it os a different mold.
Missed the other 2. Then brain farted on who else was in the line. Even though I had a card back picture in my phone. 😅
I did order the other 2 though so hunting the rest. Sucked me back in this did.
Hasbro give us a Spot already. You can have have fun with that guy by doing random spit placements on each one.
I'm not the biggest Spiderman fan but I respect the character and his place in the Marvel universe. You can have a '"complete" Marvel collection without Spidey his supporting characters and rouges. The sad thing is I have HATED the lanky body sculpt for Spidey. I think it's the right body type but it looks cheap, especially from the waste down. I missed out on the 90s retro Spiderman so I hope we get another classic with the new Iron Spidey body. This video did confirm that I need to get Hammerhead and Iron Spider.
For me it's the white triangle instead of a rectangle on the symbiote.
Also i'd rather not have the abdomen articulation if it meant not having that hideous gap that splits the venom logo in two...
Everytime I see that blue iron man it makes me think of hollow man 😂
These hit Target last week, really looking forward to Mafex 😂 … sorry, no waist and neck articulation. It’s so stiff !! … that’s what she said . 😛
Haven't even started the video yet, but I wanted to say thank you for reviewing these. I was hoping the first wave would get reviewed way back when, because these characters are the basis for my own sandwiches! (My bread and butter, if you will.)
Haha, took me a second, but yeah, I don't think I picked up much of that wave, just the Spidey and I think Gwen. Oh, and Parker for a custom. Looking back, I don't know why I skipped Electro and Goblin. And then I never cared for armored Daredevil. Hmmm...
@@TheFwoosh I skipped the armoured Daredevil, but now I'm thinking it might look nice with that armoured Spidey….
I’m really excited in Australia at big w there’s a massive sale for this wave they use to cost like $36 but know it’s only $11 I’m getting spider man black suit,hob goblin, hammer head and shocker I’m super excited
Yeah rip that packaging to shreds!!!
I like all three the black spiderman probably the one I'll hunt the armored ones ok a little short though.
I collected them in the 90s
It seems like a lot of people don't know this but these figures are mainly based off the 1994 cartoon of Spider-Man. You can tell by the logo that logo is only seen on that TV show. This is exactly it with the really cool writing and Spider-Man sitting on the logo. I own a vintage figure from that original line when they first came out and I can say the new ones are definitely a step up from the old figurines. It really sucks that they didn't think to do anything about keeping these figures in the Box especially when considering a lot of figures like Marvel Legends that have small pieces you can keep the pieces in the box with this you really can't cuz you have to destroy the box to get to figure out
Right, because the cardbacks are based on the toyline from around the time of the 90s cartoon. But that armored Spidey is definitely Gamerverse, and Ben didn't appear in this costume in that cartoon, did he?
The same i thought about the mold for superior octupus, by the mommento superior octopus hit in my country and looked at it articulation, i knew ot was the SUPERIOR spiderman action figure spidetman mold,
Then retro spidey came to the stage🤙
I really like the armored spiderman alot more
about your last comments, it has to do with the painting, ben reilly have more details, that makes it more versatile to the eye.
straight cases explains a lot. I saw one target with nothing but shockers and another with four Ben rileys only
That's what I'm hearing too, although I haven't seen any at my local Target.
Target has been doing that for a while, now. Getting full cases of MOST of a wave. Venompool left out Phage. Eternals left out Sprite and Kingo. Armordillo was hit and miss as One store got Miles here, three others did not. AoA2 was mostly Magneto and Cyclops, a few scattered Rogue and Iceman. Retro F4 was only Reed and Sue. 🙄🤦♂️
I just heard box collectors around the world gasp 😂😂
Hehehehehe
Well, bro, I wasn't collecting figures then, either. I was a 10-year-old child simply asking for as many as I could get. How dare you be the age you are! Also, astonishing was like 10 YEARS AFTER THE SENSATIONAL SPIDER-MAN. 🙃 But whatever. Thanks for the review. 🤘
