About this deal

Gwen is packed with an alternate unmasked head, a corresponding pulled down hood piece, and two sets of hands. I really dig how the belt is brown and the loops are green, rather than just sculpting it all in one color to match the jacket.

Some people misread it as Hasbro saying that Peter’s love interests are interchangeable, and were rather miffed at the thought of putting MJ in an outfit that is so clearly linked to Gwen. Spider-Gwen, an alternate universe Gwen Stacy imbued with the Spider powers instead of Peter Parker, was introduced in, and central to, the comics “Spider-Verse” storyline, and was likewise central to Into the Spider-Verse. MARVEL COMIC-INSPIRED DESIGN: Spider-Man Retro Collection Gwen Stacy figure with premium design, detail, and articulation for posing and display in a Marvel collection. Gwen’s one of those figures that I wasn’t sitting there desperately waiting to get or anything, but that I was happy enough to see turn up in the line.As with Miles, Gwen uses the same body as prior version of the character, but with a few new parts to properly Venomize her.

In its second year, Marvel Minimates worked to fill in some of the gaps left by its first year, but also looked to find its footing and how to successfully carry on a brand when you’ve already put out a lot of the heavy hitters.

With over 80 years of entertainment history, Marvel has become a cornerstone of fan collections around the world. The original Gwen Stacy may have been dead for 45 years, but that hasn’t stopped all sorts of variants of her from popping up.

Gwenpool has been starring in a string of self-titled books since, and just recently joined up with the relaunched West Coast Avengers. She’s in her main costumed look from the movie, since she’s got less looks than Miles, and this is the one that she spends most of her time in anyway. Gwen is actually a pretty top-notch ‘mate, with some fantastic sculpted pieces, a good likeness, and pretty decent paint work.

There are two full-length weblines and two shorter ones, as well as one with a slight hook on the end, for actually using to hang the figure. In terms of paint work, this Gwen, much like her predecessor, does suffer from just a bit of fuzziness in some spots, but for the most part it works out pretty well. Spider-Man arrived in early 2017, with Gwen arriving just a few months later (Venom bridged the gap between the two of them).She’s built on the Spider-Girl body, which is sensible enough, given that’s the same body Hasbro used for Spider-Gwen. She gets even more hands, with all of the same basic offerings as Peter, as well as an extra pointing hand for her right hand, and a left hand for holding her phone. First they brought her back in the Ultimate universe, and more recently, an alternate, spider-powered version was introduced during the “Spider-Verse” event.

This 6-inch Legends Series Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Gwen Stacy figure features multiple points of articulation and is a great addition to any action figure collection. Marvel’s pretty much never going to back down on Uncle Ben, and bringing back Gwen would, I guess, be viewed as a mistake. From the neck down, he’s the same as the other two non-battle damaged Spider-Men, which I guess is good for consistency. Gwen uses the Phoenix body as a starting point, but is mostly made up of new parts, with only the legs and hands ultimately being re-used.Fans can enjoy this 6-inch-scale Gwen Stacy Retro Collection figure, inspired by the character from the Marvel Spider-Man comics. The mask on Spider-Man is weird, but it’s easily swapped out for the much better looking hair piece that was included. If I had one gripe about the figure it would be that the hands look a little oversized, but maybe that’s just me. I had thought this would be my favorite figure in the set, but she ended up being a bit lower on the totem pole.
