Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Gwen Stacy 6-inch Collectible Action Figure Toy, With Spider-Ham Mini-Figure

Product Information

This reminds me that my camera is on its last leg and I’m going to need to invest in a new one real soon.

Her inclusion as the heavier packed figure between her and Mary Jane was somewhat odd, seeing as she has a rather minor role in the film. The sculpt does a pretty solid job of capturing her design from the comics, and just generally making her look as one might expect Gwen to look. Gwen gets an extra unmasked head, a hood pulled down, and two pairs of hands in both fists and thwipping poses.

I was very happy about both sets of hands being included, since the last Gwen only got one of each style. I love the startled expression on the exposed part of his head, and the clear sculpted line running between the mask and his face. Each 6-inch-scale figure features detailed design, is easily poseable with premium articulation, and includes a Build-A-Figure component. It’s a very basic and straight forward sculpt, but it does what it needs to, and it certainly looks the part.

INCH-SCALE COLLECTIBLE GWEN STACY FIGURE: Fans, collectors, and kids alike can enjoy this 6-inch-scale Gwen Stacy Retro Collection figure, inspired by the character from the Marvel Spider-Man comics. Where Spidey feels a little like the Revolver joints were added to a finished sculpt after the fact, Gwen definitely was sculpted with those joints in mind. When this line was announced and Deadpool and Spider-Man were unveiled as its first offerings, I wasn’t particularly sucked in, but I kept my eyes open to see what else they might be doing. Spider-Man Retro Collection Gwen Stacy figure with premium design, detail, and articulation for posing and display in a Marvel collection.On the flip side, however, Gwen’s multi-part hood construction doesn’t work quite as well as the multi-part head/neck that Peter has. Gwen is actually a pretty top-notch ‘mate, with some fantastic sculpted pieces, a good likeness, and pretty decent paint work. I think I might have liked her jacket to maybe be a slightly brighter shade, just to give her a little bit more pop, but the application is all pretty clean, and she doesn’t look bad in the slightest. The head and hood are separate pieces, but not as easily separated from each other as earlier versions. The end result is a figure that can get into and hold some pretty spectacular and very Spidey-esqe poses.

Fortunately, regular universe Gwen being all corpsified and gross doesn’t mean Marvel can’t use a Gwen Stacy. She marks the second of the two figures I’ve looked at so far that don’t actually really fit in the packaging style the line is emulating, but, honestly, that’s become something of a running theme with these figures.It’s not an uncommon look for the character, and was of course prominently featured in the first Spider-Man movie, so I guess it makes sense?
