    Beyond Amazing: Marvel Legends

    Ho True Believers! My celebration of Spider-Man’s Beyond Amazing 60th Anniversary continues! Hasbro has been releasing more figures this year than seems like ever before (seems like) and I’m taking some shots as I get them in hand! So check out the pics below, and as I get more, I’ll add them to this page! Remember to click on them for a closer look.

    Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock

    A classic matchup, since 1963! Spider-Man (from the Renew Your Vows 2-pack) takes it to his worst enemy, Doc Ock! (From the Silk 2-Pack)

    Silk and Spinneret

    The Spider-Verse breaks open as Silk and Spinneret team up and streak across the sky in spectacular fashion!

    Spider-Man: Homecoming

    The new figures here are Peter and Ned, but since they were clearly inspired by their appearance in Spider-Man: Homecoming, I decided to bust out all of my figs from that movie and create an entire display! Some notes:

    -Vulture is a kit bash, he has the head, arm braces, weapons and wings of the Target Exclusive Vulture from last year, and the base body is the fig from the 2017 Homecoming wave. I just think that the new Vulture’s colors are too bright, but he had more accurate accessories. The wings were practically the same, but I like the blue in the rotary blades better.

    -The maskless head on the 2017 2-Pack Spider-Man is actually the alternate head from the new Peter, not the one he came with. It DOES NOT fit tight, it sits loose, but for picture purposes, it does the job!

    -The book MJ is holding came from the Peter/Ned 2-Pack

    Well, that’s that! Do you have any pictures of your figs for Spidey’s 60th? Email ’em to mail@FaceFrontBlog.com or tag me on social media with your name and short description and I’ll post them here! Until next time, Face Front True Believers, and I’ll see you in the Multiverse!

    Beyond Amazing: Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered

    Haven’t you heard? It’s Spider-Man’s 60th Anniversary! Let’s celebrate True Believers!

    While I was playing Marvel’s Spider-Man: Remastered (on PS5, since I now have to specify that), I began scrolling through the suits to see which one I could have fun in whilst free-roaming. Then I came across the cell-shaded Vintage Comic Book Suit that I don’t believe gets nearly enough attention. I mean, it’s so creative and looks like Spider-Man is leaping out of the comics. I switched into it and decided it was the perfect outfit to take some Beyond Amazing 60th Anniversary pics in. So scroll on down, and check them out below.

    I of course had to swing by (get it?) the Daily Bugle. It’s a staple in the Spidey mythos and I simply needed to get a shot in front of it. JJJ would never forgive me if I didn’t!

    After that I caught myself doing a little wall-crawling. With the PS5’s ray-tracing, reflections look even better than ever! (I know, that sounded like a sales pitch. Sorry.) Anyways, I snapped this pic, but doesn’t it kind of just look like the MTV 2003 show? Maybe I’m seeing things, you let me know True Believers.

    Lastly was a visit to Times Square! This closeup is too cool, showing off the minimalist details of the comic outfit while the city bustles in the background!

    This game was always good about letting me live out my amazing fantasies! Do you have pictures to commemorate Spidey’s 60th from the game? I know you PC users recently got a hold of this and you’re probably going crazy in the photo mode! Send ’em to mail@FaceFrontBlog.com with your name and a short description, and I’ll post them here! Don’t be shy, like I said at the beginning, it’s a celebration! As always, Face Front True Believers, and I’ll see you in the Multiverse!
