Marvel Legends 80th Anniversary Series Big Time Spider-man & Cowboy Logan (Wolverine)


Here's a look at the new Marvel Legends Big Time Spider-man and "Cowboy" Logan.




Me: Another Wolverine repaint? Think I'll pass.
Hasbro: He's got a new hat.
Me: Why didn't you say so!

Lol. It's not just the hat he's got a new head sculpt as well. This is probably my favourite unmasked look for him. I love the look and the smirk. If you have the opportunity to choose your figure be sure to check the eyes. I came across several problematic ones before settling on this piece. The hat was stuck on and is not removable. The body reuses the Ultimate Riders Wolverine body. He wears a black singlet here and the colour of his jeans is of a lighter tone. Another difference is that his skin tone is more tan. 



























Accessories. He comes with an extra head, a pair of fists and the Muramasa Blade. The sword is the same one that came with the Vintage Series Wolverine. This time it's red in colour. According to Wiki the red sword is the second Muramasa Blade and was forged specially for Wolverine. It seems he used it on several occasions. For more info and details do look it up for yourself.


The additional head reuses the one from the Vintage X-men Series. There's no mask on this one and there's also no blue shading in his hair. It looks decent but to me he's lacking some fierceness. The eyes are to blame. He looks rather bored from some angles.

With several different heads available we can mix and match Wolverine's look.


Now for a look at the new Big Time Spider-man.



There's not much to say really. This is a repaint of the Pizza Spider-man figure. The colours of the stealth costume or Big Time costume as it's more commonly known is more comic accurate than on the previous version. The paint apps are not great. The lines don't align properly, notably at the shoulders and the paint is quite patchy in some areas.


























Accessories. He comes with an extra pair of wall crawling hands, a pair of fists and a web line. It's good to see this many sets of hands. We sometimes don't even get any extra hands. 


Articulation 

Logan has a ball hinge neck, ball hinge shoulders, bicep swivel, double jointed elbows, swivel hinge wrists, ab crunch, waist rotation, ball hips, thigh swivel, double jointed knees and ankle swivel with hinge and pivot.

Big Time Spider-man has a ball hinge neck, ball hinge shoulders, butterfly joints, bicep swivel, double jointed elbows, swivel hinge wrists, ab crunch, waist rotation, ball hips, thigh swivel, double jointed knees and ankle hinge and pivot.

Both nice figures. I really like Logan's look. Thanks for viewing!
