I'm relieved, I thought perhaps it was just ME, or maybe having seen the EVEN more dismal MEDICOM version was the reason I was put off by this completely. I think a different body type would have served to compliment Spiderman's frame more accurately, plus the new costume design sucks (which Hot Toys Can't be blamed for)... I still preordered it though, I'm a Hugh Spidey fan.

It's not just you, and I am a huge Spidey fan as well. I have all of the Medicom RAH Spiderman comic character versions, plus both of the classic and black HT releases. Still, this was an easy pass for me. I hate the suit, reminds me of what Ben Riley would have been wearing rather than Peter Parker (for the true comic nerds out there). I considered getting one just to call it Spider Clone, but then it just looks so lousy in the pictures I couldn't justify even that for the price.

As much as I want the Spiderman 3 version because the costume is more iconic, I passed on it because I was afraid the glued webbing would peel off someday. I need atleast 1 Spidey in my collection so I'll PO this, anyway I'm not really bothered by the new costume and it has a Parker head...

Yeah, another victim, uh I mean customer!.... Like seeing your buddy getting married... You're happy for them but you know it's the start of something long, painful and will eventually leave him almost broke. No, but seriously I LOVE this hobby, and probably will for life. I have easily have over 700-750 figures (I'm scared to count) alone including several custom and one of a kind custom pieces that I gawk over everyday. I have no desire to stop, only question is where I'll find the room. The only advice I'd give to someone starting off is do it out of joy and artistry and you feel the same. Unfortunately, during this "golden age" of 1/6th the technology, variety and craftsmanship are being overshadowed by ever growing prices which alienate current hobbyists and deters new ones. Your ahead of the game for finding this site so early in your career, you'll find it quite informative. Enjoy. Welcome...

Blade is one Hot Toy I WISH I could find at a decent price! So far I'm a new Hot Toy collector and have STARS Wesker, Post Trans Krauser, Classic Predator, and Boromir Sideshow. Haven't got into super heroes because I'm not crazy about movie licensed looks, but pre-ordered Iron Patriot because it looked to damn sweet. But yeah, Blade is one I wish I had!
