MAFEX Spider-Man Marvel Comics Medicom Action Figure Review

In the span of this review I went from thinking the Medicom MAFEX Marvel Comics Spider-Man was high on the list but not the top because of some flaws to realizing that dang, this is my definitive Spidey. Sure, brighter colors would have put it over the top but this will definitely do for now.

[@LochNessHamster]

The sculpt and proportions on this figure is so good. I tend to not like classic comic Spider-Man figures, and I think it's because it's a hard design to pull off without it looking bland and basic. This figure just gets so much character and aesthetic across with the details. It's hard to explain, but it just looks right.

Though the figure is amazing, I'm just a little dissapointed because of that paint.

The sculpted web on the costume is sick, same as the old "Macfarlane Spider-Man". Also love the multiple heads. This is a very nice figure; I agree it could be the end all be all6 inch Spidey Figure. Also agree with the comments you made about it being worth it. I just dropped $230 at Target for those Neca Ninja Turtles, and at first felt like a sucker, then I thought I've wanted them since Comicon and missed out, so it's totally worth it. Besides, you can't put a price on Passion, brotha! Keep up the Updates and uniquely funny reviews.!

[@mgbrunetto2034]

The reason the mask is small is because the mask is elasticized so it retracts

I suppose it depends on what the comic depicted them as were they lenses or just a pattern change to see through ? You make a good point.

Yeah that does look like a toybiz spiderman , & after that quick glimpse of a part of your shelf I would like to see an update video of your collection shelf how long ago did you do a video on you collection shelfs

[@Novapoid]

I was waiting for your opinion! Nice review as always. IMO this is a VERY good Spider-man, but it's not great. I like the mold a lot, most of the articulation and the magnets are such a cool idea. However, besides minor gripes (torso kinda limited, it looks weird in a neutral pose, faceprint is really soft), I think the biggest one is the price & paintjob: considering you're paying 80 dollars for it, it should LOOK like a premium action figure...and frankly, it doesn't. It's clearly better than a Marvel Legends, but it is possible to mistake it from a far because of the paintjob. I wish they found a way to hide the inner-workings of the legs as well. I think it's still my favorite spider-man so far, but it had the potential to be amazing...maybe their Venom then ? (tho I love what Yamaguchi did, this Venom is so different it's worth it).

[@AlquimiaLoteria]

Why I love those plastic thing so much?

I’m totally with you on the conflicted side. This was one of the highlights off the year for me and if I liked this figure I would go deep in on the comic Mafex. It is a good figure and I do like it, but I don’t love it. Saying that, I do love your review and I hope you are well.

[@Tcstewie]

This is one of the best spider-man figures. Im surprised at how hesitant you are about it. No gimmicks. Great articulation. Nice accessories. No yamaguchi-whatever nonsense. Great figure. What's the problem?

[@TheFwoosh]

Unless you're a fan of yamaguchi-whatever nonsense. But I wouldn't liked a little more range in the torso and brighter colors, maybe a little cheaper. And before you go "You're just being nitpicky" I do really like the figure, and I think it's my main shelf Spider-Man. But there's room for improvement.

[@Tcstewie]

I really, really enjoy the yamaguchi aesthetic and range of articulation in the figures, I just always feel like I'm going to break the joints if I accidentally pull the wrong direction. I can agree that I would like the colors here to be slightly brighter, but I have seen a few of these that are not as dark as yours. Maybe it's the way they're coming out on the camera. I can't wait to get mine.

[@SheydokGear]

It's pretty much imposible for a Spider-Man with sculpted webbing to have all of the lines painted, this one actually does a better job compared to most of the ones I've seen. Now, it's true, the Revoltech one is considerably more articulated (I'd even argue that there won't be a more articulated Spidey, ever.) yet, if you want to sacrifice only a LITTLE BIT OF RANGE for a better looking Spidey with better sculpted proportions and high detail, I believe MAFEX is the way to go. Now, personally, I don't have a problem with it not being as "shiny" as the promo pics show, I believe it would've look wat too metalic, which is a throwback, at least for me... Considering how most Marvel lines don't have metalic-ish painting, which could make it look off on a shelf, so again *PERSONALLY* the fact that they reduced the shiness on it, actually makes me happy. ... Still, that unmasked head... For the love of God, that's horrible, nowhere near the promo pics.

[@TheFwoosh]

Oh man, you're in the Fwoosh zone, don't be nervous to throw your opinion. We all dig different things and that's totally cool. I'm actually pretty down with the darker colors now that I've sat on it for a few days, just threw me that it was so different from the advertised colors. But me being me, I'd probably buy a second one with the brighter scheme. Then another in symbiote colors. Then another in whatever look they want to give us, haha.

Haha, I can't fault you for that at all!

[@LocoLu526]

I can’t wait to get this guy

[@thepegasuskid4186]

Any ideas on how to get the wash off? Not a fan.

[@Getwright-]

It looks like the paint is a little fuzzy around some of the places where the blue meets the red. Is that accurate to say?

[@TheFwoosh]

It's stuff I didn't even notice until I was editing the video, not that bad in-person. But it also may be time to get my eyes checked.

[@lucasmsg4178]

I don’t get it, why are you conflicted? It looks great, can’t wait for mine to arrive D:

[@mikerotch6068]

It kinda looks like a bootleg tho. And at that price point a little better job should be expected

[@Tremain]

Cause it costs significantly higher than other imports and its not really that much better.

[@bomasuryananda4152]

Cause you already pre order this and cheer up yourself for bad news

[@Zapdos97]

I don’t get it either. I too liked the promo shots but people are making it seem like the black wash is somewhat of a defect when it’s accurate to the source material.

[@thunderfeet]

Zapdos I’m much happier with this blue than the “Disco/metallic” we saw in the promotional shots.

I can see why you’re conflicted. It looks great and has all the articulation you’d want in a Spiderman figure, but $75-$90 is expensive and from the reviews I’ve seen so far, there seems to be issues that shouldn’t be in a figure that’s almost $100. Like the loose hands you mentioned. The unmasked head doesn’t look that great and the detail is pretty fuzzy for the face. I’ve also heard of other loose joints like the torso and shoulders as well as the shoulders popping off, and missing paint wash for the webbings. If I’m paying $75-$90 on a figure, I expect the quality control to be top notch or at least with no minor issues that really shouldn’t be there. So yeah it looks good but I’m not sure it it’s “$80 good”.

[@TheFwoosh]

You, my friend, absolutely nailed it. Said in 30 seconds what took me 15 minutes.

[@elib3093]

Sorry to do your job for you lol but this was a great video and review. Big fan of your channel. Keep it up!

[@mikehext]

I sooo need this. I orginally had planned to order it. I guess I didnt

[@Zekzt]

I wonder also how well he scales with McFarlane figs, especially COD and Fortnite ones. My friend [from my local FB collectors group] wants to sell few of his spare figs and i wonder would those COD and Fortnite soldiers work out as a decent merc army builder for my future dio [atm i own Mafex Venom and im waiting for my spidey and miles to arrive , since Mafex did not give us any more spider-verse characters im trying to do some dio with your common mercs and other stuff =) ]

[@waltav2895]

This figure is so cool
