Starting with the Upgraded Suit. This is a store exclusive figure. The suit looks very similar to the Far From Home (FFH) version. There are some differences which I'll run through below.
This figure has a new torso which comes as a surprise. The spacing of the lines is wider, the curve lines were done a little differently and it's got the V shaped design at the crotch area. The red at the waist section is solid whereas the FFH figure had some black in between. Other differences include the red elbows and this has black at the tip and bottom of his feet. The arms and legs reuses those from FFH.

L-R: FFH, Upgraded |
Accessories. He comes with an unmasked head, a pair of web shooting hands and a web-line.
If not for the unmasked head I might not have picked up this figure given how similar it looks to the FFH figure. The head sculpt is superb. The likeness is spot on. I like his messed up hair. It has great sculpted detail in it. One thing about the head is that it's small and sits a little high on the neck.
(UPDATE 5 October 2021, 730pm) :
I totally forgot about the unmasked head from the Infinity War two-pack.... Sorry about that. So this new head is the same one as from the two-pack. The colours here are much better. He looks more healthy. The previous one is rather pale. The lips were done better. The hair is now a darker brown which is more accurate to his current appearance.
This unmasked looks significantly better than the one from the Homecoming two-pack. And that head is huge.
Next up the Black & Gold suit.
This figure is the exact same figure as FFH, just different in colour. The painted gold lining was well done.
The suit has some printed circuitry like design on it. It's black in colour so it may be hard to make out. The design can be found on his torso, biceps and thighs. I said circuitry design but I think it may be magic inscriptions. I say that because the Hot Toys figure comes with some magic effect parts. Just guessing.
Accessories. He only comes with a pair of web-shooting hands. The included BAF part is the left leg of Armadillo.
The unmasked head will fit on this body.
Lastly the Integrated Suit.
As the name suggests I think the Iron Spider will get combined with one of his other suits. Just speculation. This figure is all new and has pinless arms and legs. The design is similar to the Iron Spider. The colours are brighter here. There's a lot more gold used and it really shines. I very much like the look of this suit. I can't wait to see it in action. Most of the design elements was sculpted. There's also some sculpted deco on his legs. The gold bands on his wrists are separate pieces.
Accessories. He only comes with a pair of web-shooting hands. These are new. They have quite a bit of sculpted lines in them.
The unmasked head will also fit this figure.
Articulation
Both the Upgraded Suit and the Black & Gold Suit Spider-man have 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.
The Integrated Suit Spider-man has a dumbbell joint 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. He can look up and down decently. I would have preferred more range for the neck articulation.
Comparison shots.
All three suits are nice. The Upgraded suit would be my favourite of the three for the more classic look. Thanks for viewing!
So much goodness here!
ReplyDeleteThe Logo and upper body of the integrated suit remind me of Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume.
ReplyDeletei like the consistency in almost all the figures, but i always thought that the Spider-men look off, the one that mostly reminds me of Tom Holland Proportions is the Night Monkey/stealth suit
