Definite upgrade! 

This one's got to be one of my most anticipated figures of the year. Always been a big fan of this character's design, and while the pizza-Spidey served me well for many years, this is a welcome upgrade!

Finally Finally Spidey 2099 get's the right buck, I made due with the previous figure but I always deep down hated it, because it was just such a lackluster effort, the Buck was so wrong, and it seemed like nobody paid any attention to the source material, they just said, use that one spider-man build...blah, and it turned out all types of ug, Miguel was never a scrawny little kid, he was always depicted as bigger and buffer then 616 spidey, Now after all of this time a really amazing character and popular to boot get's a beautiful figure, I'm so happy to chuck that old scrawny thing into a bag and fling it, this figure hits the buttons and it's probably one of the most deserving of an update figures in a long time, now next up is Lasher, I need a lasher on an appropriate buck, this update should have happened years ago, and that retro 2099 should have just not happened. 

Looking forward to this one. I still need to get Superior and Scarlet Spider at some point...

This is easily my most wanted figure in the last 2 years; it's an example of smart reuse. Sometimes changing just one part of the figure can make it seem like a brand new sculpt. RYV wasn't a bad mold, but the chest was somewhat narrow and sunken-in shoulders made it even worse.

These new beefy shoulders and arms do tremendous heavy lifting in salvaging this body; now it looks like an actual superhero.However, as much as I like the extra vein sculpt on his shoulders, it limits reusability. Fingers crossed, they have or will sculpt basic arms with these same proportions; in that case, they can reuse that body for thousands of heroes.
