Seriously? Out of all the X-Men characters at the X-Men's Hellfire Gala...we get a Spider-Man?!?

If I'm being generous, I do think this may be the easiest "testing the waters" choice, since his Gala look can be done with almost-entirely straight-up reuse (if not 100%, I can't tell if the head is reuse or not), whereas most of the other looks will need at least a bit of new tooling, plus the simple fact that he's Spider-Man could potentially mitigate shelf-warming.

I do reeeeally hope this leads to Hasbro doing more Gala looks, though.

I do wish they went with bigger body, after all it's adult Peter. But paint deco is done well, however, I do think Hasbro should have used marbleized plastic in this case or whatever they used for 2099 figure, it would have conveyed costume look way better.

It does seem like Hasbro is kinda just switching to the First Appearance body as the default Peter body all-round, even for adult Peter? Cuz the Secret Wars Symbiote Spidey was on this body too, and he's well into his 20s by that point. I think the FF Spidey and Wolverine 2-pack used it too. Personally I like it cuz I do think the height is a bit more appropriate relative to other characters, but I can understand it being a bit jarring when they had the RYV body as the "new standard".

Shown below is a Walmart Collector Con Summer 2025 Preview look at the new Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man Hellfire Gala, X-Men: Hellfire Gala Comics Action Figure from Hasbro that will be going up for pre-order on July 24th at 10am EDT.

Love this suit design, definitely getting this one. Hopefully Walmart doesn't give me any issues...

I hope they do the Doom version. I want to recreate the David Bowie m eme.

Just weird. Not saying it doesn't look cool. And in a world of a thousand Spider-Men I'm not saying it doesn't have it's place. But it's just so random. At least on the packaging it actually calls out where the look comes from instead of the all too standard and all too simple "Spider-Man" that they seem to put on the box of every version of Spidey they've done to this point.

I prefer these as exclusive. Non essential costumes that not many people want. But I will get it.

Cool design. Not essential though

I actually like the look, but as a one issue outfit, I'll probably pass.
