    Here is is the problem, Hasbro Pulse has been putting out new Spider-Man figures but lack quality control. The new windowless boxes have made this extremely difficult to see the problems before purchases. Multiple Spider-Man figures have arrived with defects. Hasbro do bettter and fix this, answer your emails, support your fans of Marvel Legends.

      I get it non plastic boxes aren't great for for many reasons but the approaching state of the environment is far more concerning. If you don't like the figure you get exchange it for a new one, return it, or don't get it. Hasbro going non plastic isn't them "not caring" it's just the reality that we are entering as a result of people not giving a crap about the environment for so long. Toy companies like Lego are also planing on ditching plastic packaging and it probably won't be long till we see others doing the same. The real issue's that show Hasbro doesn't care about consumers is they are rasing their prices while their quality is dropping.

    In my experience as a Spider-Man enthusiast, in all my years of buying figures, If one fell apart like in the video, I would disassemble the general area of where that part fell (lower torso in your case) heat up all the parts, superglue the crucial points, let it sit and dry for 24 hours, with a bowl of cold water, place spidery in there, and dry him off, not sure if this tactic is effective but it’s worked for me so far

    That is very disappointing. I have this figure ordered and was really looking forward to it. Hopefully mine doesn't just come apart like that. I like Marvel Legends, but Hasbro's constant BS is why so many fans are turning their backs on them. The QC is worse than ever with these windowless figures. :/

      Absolutely and it took me 3 of these to get a great one in package. I must have been getting them all from the same batch.

      @@otakulensphotography I'm sorry to hear that. Amazon has a tendency to ship out weak batches for whatever reason. Thankfully the one I received has no issues that I'm aware of, but I'm being careful with that ab crunch. I think yours just wasn't glued together, but I can't be too careful! 😬
