Spider-Man
Movie Figures
Y'know, the thing about bootleg toys is,
you just never know what's coming next. Batman on a horse. Superman without
a cape. A cussing Bart Simpson. But one thing you can almost always count
on is Spider-Man on a motorcycle. I've got at least four or five bootleg
Spider-Man figures riding a motorcycle.
Now, here's another one.
The card this bootleg set of toys comes
on is oversized (like alot of the other Spider-Man movie packages). It's
about 15.5" X 11". As you can see, there are two Spidey figures plus a
Spider-Man figure on a motorcycle. The bootleggers even threw in a collectable
Spider-Man card. Woo Hoo!
The figures are nothing to write home
about. They stand about 5.5" tall. I don't understand why the bootleggers
didn't bother painting the arms of the figures. Spidey's arms should also
be red.
The figure on the motorcycle is shown
standing. And if ya plan on playing with it, you can expect to never be
able to seat the figure. Why? Cuz the darn thing has no articulation in
the legs. Also, the wheels are pretty narrow and there's no kick stand.
So once the thing stops rolling, it's gonna "plop" fall over.
Below are a couple of close ups of the
figures and the card. I don't know if the card is a rip off of some real
cards that were produce. But on the bottom of the card is some text in
chinese (sorry, it's not in the picture I took). FYI, there are at least
four different cards available. My guess is if I looked around for this
set, I could probably find more cards. Of course, since bootleg cards have
been produced, it's almost a sure thing that other bootleg Spider-Man figures
will start popping up with these same cards. Why let them go to waste,
right?
