Walmart Collector Con Preview - Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man '77 Movie Collectible 6" Action Figure

Re: Ghost Spider

I guess I'll just never understand the ML development crew's thought process. So they use basically the same old Sunfire model but retooled to eliminate the butterfly joints which they often use for the justification for using the model so often. Especially for the more athletic figures. Yet they leave everything else that makes the model look so strange like the tiny shoulders and extremely long neck. They removed articulation yet made no improvement to aesthetics. What was the point? To make room for the chest logo? I honestly think it could have easily fit on the original version of the model. Plus Hasbro's never had a problem making adjustments to details to accommodate sculpt limitations. They are just all over the place lately.

Nitpicking here but, technically in the '77 tv movie he wasnt wearing the wrist shooter and belt on the outside of his costume like he did in the '78 series. But, i understand that's how they're branding him.

Love the image on the back of the box replicating the poster. Also, love that they implied the red leather detail on the belt. Wouldn't have faulted them if they missed that.

Shown below is the new Hasbro G.I. Joe Classified Series #159, Richard "Crystal Ball" King, 6" Action Figure which will be available on March 14th at 10am EDT on Walmart with a suggested retail price of $24.97.

1977 SPIDER-MAN MOVIE INSPIRED: Collectible figure is inspired by Spider-Man's appearance in the 1977 Spider-Man movie. Makes a great addition to any collection of Marvel Legends action figures. This will go up for pre-order on the Walmart website on 3/13 at 10am ET.

We told you last week how the next Walmart Collector-Con event would take place next Thursday on March 13, but now we know that Walmart will start to preview the products they will be selling during the event tomorrow (3/6) at 10am ET.For Marvel Legends we expect the Marvel Legends Walmart exclusives (77' TV Series Spider-Man and Gamerverse Spider-man 2 Spirit Spider) figures to go up for pre-order next week. Below is the image from the Walmart website which showed a blacked out Spider-Man figure. We replaced the blacked out image with the one Hasbro showed for the 77' Spider-Man several months ago which you can see is an exact match.For Star Wars we know their will be 4 figures. Hasbro officially announced three of those as the Black Series Revenge Of The Sith Cardback Count Dooku, Kit Fisto and R2-D2. The blacked out teaser image shown below seems to tease a Clone Trooper which we assume will be the fourth figure offered during the event.From Hasbro we should also be seeing Transformers and perhaps for G.I. Joe Classified a Night Force Beach Head and Quick Kick 2-pack which was shown during Toy Fair.Other companies we know who should have a presence at Collector Con is McFarlane Toys, though we don't have any specifics on what products they might be offering during the event.

Sometimes a figure is just so cool looking, I want it no matter the context. I did love this look in the game, and he is in the comics...And I do have a team of Ghost Riders set up currently Danny, Johnny, Robbie and Hellverine rollin together.

Love the Ghost Rider display!

Thinking the same thing. If only we had Robbie it would be a perfect team.

I was more thinking of a team of established character who become Ghost Rider. I guess Cosmic Ghost Rider could be included since he was the Punisher

I'm tempted to pick up Spirit Spider just because it looks like it could fit in a comic-inspired display. As I've mentioned time and time again, I'm not much of a MCU/gamerverse fan, but there are always some exceptions....
