Marvel Legends Spider-Man: Brand New Day Spider-Man 15cm Action Figure – Hasbro

A proper Spider-Man figure that doesn’t cost a fortune. This is the Marvel Legends Spider-Man Brand New Day figure from Hasbro — Spider-Man as he looks in the new Marvel Studios film, made as a 15cm figure you can pose and stand on a shelf.

Who it’s for

If you’re buying a present for someone who likes Spider-Man, this is the safe choice. It’s instantly recognisable — the classic red and blue suit, no explanation needed and no need to have seen the film. It’s better made and better painted than a supermarket toy, but it’s priced like a present rather than a collector’s piece.

What comes in the Marvel Legends Spider-Man Brand New Day box

The figure, four spare hands and two web pieces. The hands pull off and swap over, so you can have him making a fist, gripping, or doing the web-firing gesture with the fingers tucked in. The two web pieces clip on to look like a web is being thrown. He bends and turns in more than twenty places — neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, waist, hips, knees and ankles — which is what lets him hold a proper action pose rather than standing to attention.

How big is it?

About 15cm tall. You’ll sometimes see this size called “1/12 scale” or a “6-inch figure” — both mean roughly the same thing, and it’s the most common size there is for figures like this. In practice that means he’ll look right standing next to other figures of the same sort, rather than towering over them or getting lost among them.
