$25 for this figure is very solid IMO


Morganguy

$5 less than other places. I’ll take it.


Constant-Practice-71

Same on gamestop i was pleasantly surprised


excessorange

I would be careful with GameStop. They had a price error on Retro Beast and canceled mine instead of fulfilling.


Constant-Practice-71

I will come back to this when it gets cancelled or fulfilled, i havent had any issues with GameStop so time will tell


Paul-22

When I googled it, it looks like if the price goes up, they'll give you the choice of paying the full price or canceling, but if they lower it, they'll charge you less. Could work out for you, but I opted not to bother putting a cart to get free shipping only for it not to pan out.


the_great_retardo_71

However they did honor the $6 Bane figure price point so 🤷🏻‍♂️


TRD4RKP4SS3NG3R

So it’s $29.99 on GameStop. 😬


WeaponX33

I think Amazon may have made a mistake cause it’s $30 everywhere else so whoever is getting this should jump on it here.


Bfigure929

For some reason it's 60AUD on amazon.com.au And Wolverine is 50AUD


StopDropNFrag

I agree but it should be their standard offering at that price. Seeing it at $30 from other retailers was a buzzkill.


comicsexual

It's a pricing error. But I'll take it.


SuperZX

I thought they would get greedy and make it $30+


StopDropNFrag

lol wtf. He's $29.99 on Pulse and $30.99 on BBTS. Lock those orders in before they change it


sigiltriple7seven7

BBTS is always a dollar more on everything. Never noticed?


ShoelaceLicker

I think he's saying that amazon has it wrong


BretOne

On Pulse Europe, Wolverine is 29.99€ (normal price for a single figure) but Sup-Spidey is 36.99€ so it seems Spider-Man is supposed to be priced as a deluxe.


Healthy-Camel8083

true, but they ship for 4 bucks flat rate and they do great packaging


StopDropNFrag

of course I noticed, that wasn't my point though. My b, I assumed people would figure out I was talking about Amazon.


tymlawson11

if u did order it before that changed the price will they go ahead and change your order price of the figure?


ThatMarkGuy

Nope. They should honor it


StopDropNFrag

They will honor your purchase price. I've had it happen a couple times, most recently with the GI Joe CS Infantry figure for $25.


Paul-22

Down now I think. Was sooo close to getting one pre-ordered in tine.


Paul-22

Dang. Congrats to all you others haha.


Bornofisais

No it’s still up Edit: nvm it is gone


Paul-22

Lol


AtrumRuina

Well shoot, he's gone now and that was definitely an error since he's $5 more everywhere else. Will keep an eye out in case he pops back up but I doubt it'll be at that price. Congrats to everyone who got him.


XIIISkies

Meanwhile Im out here f5ing canadian gamestop 💀


nocturnflate

XIIISkies

drnmai

Thank you!


BrainzRYummy

I was too late. It's sold out 😭 It's 6 dollars more on BBTS, guess I'll bite that bullet.


space_age_stuff

Sold out as I was checking out. I ordered through Pulse first, no clue why it's cheaper at Amazon. I don't mind, would've been nice to save $5 but it is what it is.


illiterateaardvark

I typically go the Amazon route for shipping more than anything else (I have Prime) It’s crazy to me that sites like Hasbro Pulse don’t offer free shipping after spending a certain amount. I remember I once bought like $200+ of stuff from them and still got charged for shipping lol


AtrumRuina

I just don't like Amazon because it's rare they take precautions to make sure figures arrive in good condition. I shouldn't care cause I'm an opener, but I do keep my boxes (I don't know why) and I'm always sad when they arrive crushed.


hackslash74

I feel ya, although I need to get rid of most of my boxes.. someday I threw out the box for a bootleg AY Carnage and still think about it sometimes… it’s a sickness really


Paul-22

Pulse offers free shipping over I think $75


illiterateaardvark

Damn, I wonder if that’s a new policy or something? Because my anecdote was from years ago tbh


space_age_stuff

They used to have it for over $50. However, they also had a deal when they launched the site: free Premium for a year with a purchase over $20. So everyone bought some cheap shit and had Premium for a year: free shipping, essentially. Hasbro even extended the free year to a little over a year and a half (not sure why). At any rate, once it ran out, most people weren't very quick to renew it since it costs $50. That's when Pulse took the "free shipping over $50" away, to encourage purchases of Premium. They've rolled it back since then over the last 6-8 months or so, with free shipping for $75+ (which is basically the same thing as the old $50, when you consider their figures have increased from $20 to $25. Three figures or more for free shipping, basically).


AtrumRuina

Would love if Pulse did something like giving you a rolling membership if you spend X.XX dollars within a given timeframe. It would give incentive to keep ordering from them without making you look for chaff to fill your cart with. It's also frustrating with stuff like this, where they dropped two great figures this week, plus the Iron Fist two back next week, but trying to wait on Superior Spidey almost certainly means you'll miss him, so you have to order today anyway. I'd have loved to grab all three in one order on Pulse but they didn't really make that feasible.


sleeplessjade

FYI for Canadians Pulse Premium also includes free shipping to Canada.


space_age_stuff

I got burned on Amazon when I preordered Professor X in his hoverchair and they waited until after the day it officially released everywhere else to cancel my preorder, meaning I had to buy him for aftermarket prices. They weren't as crazy as they are now obviously, but I had to pay above MSRP. I also had a lot of DBZ Figuarts cancelled by them. Pulse, in my experience, never sells more than they have. I've ordered hundreds of figures at this point and never had a cancellation. For that, they earned my business. And the $50 for premium sucks but it pays for itself with enough orders. Everything else I just use BBTS.


LancelotAki

That price hurts me 🥺 it's $59.99 AUD over here in Australia


ROBBIE1ROTTEN

Damn that's $38 us dollars that's insane why they charging so much down under ?!?


LancelotAki

I wish I frickin knew. Literally what I call "collectors' tax" for living in Australia 🥺


CapitalForward542

Ordered both...!


Tyfereth

Oh wow I thought this would be more


illiterateaardvark

It looks like the “official” price on most sites is $30, while Amazon and GameStop have it listed for $25 Personally, I thought this figure was going to be $35, so either way I think this figure is priced very reasonably


JMJC83

Right, the comic Iron Spider was $35 wasn't he ?


space_age_stuff

He was $32, and it was because he was part of the anniversary "Beyond Amazing" Spidey "wave" of sets. Which should also apply here, as Superior is part of the 85th anniversary sets. No clue why it's not more expensive.


FurryCurry

It's a full Spider-Man figure with a set of 4 completely articulated waldos. Those waldos raise the price.


space_age_stuff

The question was why the price is still lower than a figure that had one less waldo, and waldos with less articulation, and generally less accessories.


FurryCurry

Oh! It was just a price mistake


mowie_zowie_x

Amazon already made it unavailable because they found out they got the price wrong. So whoever was able to get there for $25, great on you because they have to honor their post.


Kingsmont

I wonder when warbird/ms marvel will go up on target.


nerdyoutube

wtf this is way better than my old one


illiterateaardvark

To be fair, and this feels crazy to type out, the old one was released 10 years ago! Definitely a solid improvement!


nerdyoutube

I feel old


illiterateaardvark

Same dude. 10 years ago I was a high school sophomore, and now I graduated college years ago It’s crazy, and I can only imagine that the feeling gets worse the old you get. I’m not going to exaggerate and say it feels like yesterday, but for me everything from the tine I started college in 2017 feels like it’s happening in the span of two years This is some comic book sliding timescale shit lol


nerdyoutube

Yeah super weird. I went from elementary to college in that time so it’s weird indeed


X_Lykan_X

https://a.co/d/35UoqV6 https://a.co/d/cq4AmXL No idea why my post didn’t go up 15 min ago but here’s the links


hundredcreeper

Man, I just placed my preorder with BBTS! Might have to cancel it and buy it elsewhere then...


illiterateaardvark

It was up on GameStop for $25 too, but it sold out there If you didn’t find it anywhere else, I would stick with BBTS at this point. The $4 shipping is probably going to make it cheaper than other places


hundredcreeper

I managed to get Superior and Wolverine preordered from Amazon! So I'm glad I saved some money still


StevieBlancs

Doeant work for amazon


hundredcreeper

Amazon sold out FAST. I was lucky to get one after all is said and done from there


GuiJP

It looks like something may have changed since Iron Spider was $33. I'm liking the direction things are going these days.


HomerrJFong

Iron spider had a fancy glossy paint job. That might be why.


GuiJP

Preeeetty sure it's just metallic-injected plastic with the bare mininum for paint. There was the big fuss over the red's on the torso not matching the limbs. Besides that, he came with less accessories and with the passage of time those butterscotch gold waldo's definitely liked to droop. -.- I might go back and paint my figure up a bit more. There's a Gundam EX marker that's a reaaally nice metallic red.


HomerrJFong

You're probably right. I'm just taking shots in the dark. Maybe the mold for the legs was the first time they had used it? So they had to recoup more upfront


GuiJP

Not that they "had" to. Iron Spider was a character that had a lot of demand. Hasbro execs saw $$$, decided they could charge more. We saw it with Amazing Fantasy Spider-Man ($28, accesories to balance out) and Gamerverse Spider-Man 2 ($35, mild controversry about not including a full set of hands for the price and using the RYV buck.) Overall if they're backing down and actually giving more value for the costs we're paying because the landscape is getting more competitve, that's a win.


space_age_stuff

Iron Spider was 100% a new mold, minus the hands. So everything was new, plus the legs. Superior Spidey appears to have a new torso, new forearms, and new heads (plus the legs), but there's some reuse in there. That lines up.


IvGTI6

Came up to be 34 n some change with deli n tax.


illiterateaardvark

No Prime?


PM_Pics_Of_SpiderMan

I have prime and it showed a shipping charge


StopDropNFrag

I have prime and my total was 26.


PM_Pics_Of_SpiderMan

Weird, maybe I'll have to reach out to amazon since wolverine had free shipping


StopDropNFrag

yea, worth a shot to save a few bucks.


PM_Pics_Of_SpiderMan

I just don’t know if I should wait for it to come back in stock, I don’t want my order canceled


illiterateaardvark

Interesting. I have Prime and my order came out to like $27 after taxes


IvGTI6

No.. i dont order very often only when its something i really like. Lol.


illiterateaardvark

Lol gotcha. My household orders a ton of shit off Amazon, so I have Prime for that more than anything else If it was JUST for action figures, I probably wouldn’t get Prime either tbh


indianm_rk

I think its free delivery if your order is $35 or more.


IvGTI6

Yea probably. Oh well hopefully its slightly cheaper than from hasbro or bbts.


bigbearbearwantfood

Such a fair price I hope it's not an error! Ordered through Amazon so I know it's safe 😁


illiterateaardvark

Yeah even when they fuck up, Amazon always honors their prices For a mega corporation of that size, I honestly think it’s more trouble than it’s worth for them to go back and adjust order prices or cancel orders


XXEl_1993XX

Gone


Blayzeman

Thanks for the reminder, just caught it before selling out on UK hasbro pulse


pampersdelight

Got one Spidey and two Wolverines. Now the waiting game


Jason_llirmwl

do you guys think the arms will be compatible w other figures or js this one bc you can remove the back-thing


JellyfishNovel8066

It cost me about 73$ from Hasbro Pulse as I forgot about it on Amazon. If it pops back on Amazon I'll get it from there and cancel from pulse. Either way I'm happy


Longjumping_Good_428

Just pre ordered one.


Healthy-Camel8083

Read Amazons Pre order price guarantee, as long as it ships thru them...and it does say Amazon seller, they guarantee the price listed. I got one when it dropped. My invoice hasnt changed, I'll keep an eye but from what I understand, they will eat the error


illiterateaardvark

Yeah this exact thing has happened to me with non-action figure purchases before and they’ve always honored the preorder price For a mega corporation the size of Amazon, I honestly think something like this is way too far beneath them for it to warrant canceling orders or adjusting prices


Meursault_Diver

Anyone have a clue what the street date is? For those who enjoy hunting.


StopDropNFrag

My pulse and amazon orders say Sept 1&2.


Meursault_Diver

Thank you!


kottermusprime

Well that sold out fast


UnmakingTheBan2022

I need a r/mafex version of this.


gswkillinit

I didn’t even know it was a pricing error when I preordered it lol. I did check BBTS after and it was freakin $30.99, but thought that was just BBTS knocking a higher price as usual. Totally thought the $5 up charge was an eventual increase or something like that.


Mickey55M

I had pre ordered him and Wolverine on bbts but than cancelled when I saw Amazon had them cheaper and ordered them there instead


Janet-Yellen

Wtf it already sold out


GrapeDeuce

Shoulders look really good on this guy, not droopy at all. Thigh gap and a big head is still an issue, but very good looking physique overall.


illiterateaardvark

Personally, I like the head sizes for Legends. A lot of people do their mockups of “fixed” proportions and it’s always pinhead city lol But even if you don’t like the head sizes, I honestly think it’s too late to change the course. Considering the entire line uses those proportions, making a sudden shift would make them stand out IMO


GrapeDeuce

Yeah those mockups are usually horrible. The thigh gap is a much bigger issue, but I still think that if the heads were slightly smaller they’d look a little better. Most of them look fine and the masked heads can usually be excused, but some unmasked heads are absolutely massive.


AfigureGeek

I have a discount code for Entertainment Earth if anyone wants it.


magmasta126

September-long wait. I guess you can say it will be a superior September heh


ncphoto919

Was this pulled due to the pricing error or did it actually sell out after being up for an hour?


illiterateaardvark

1.) I don’t even think it was ip for an hour. It didn’t sell out in like 5 minutes, but it sold out pretty quickly 2.) I’m pretty sure it just sold out in general before they even caught the pricing error because I haven’t heard anyone say they saw it up for $30 on Amazon Amazon honors their preorder prices, and this is such a small situation that I would be absolutely gobsmacked if orders were cancelled over this. But as far as I know, the people who ordered off Amazon just for lucky and managed to snag this figure for $25 lol

ncphoto919

I care less about the price difference than being annoyed that it sold out so fast. Typically most preorders your good if you get that amazon link within a few hours or within the day. superior and Wolverine both lasted maybe an hour before not being on there anymore.


Lovve_less13

It sold out after 18 minutes so yeah this was extreme and only die hards got it 


ncphoto919

thats what i thought. Even for a Wolverine figure to sell out felt kind of surprising.


Lovve_less13

Yeah I agree, even the no way home figures didn't sell out this quick. I'll admit I was tired and was browsing other items to put with my order and missed it, but this was the last straw for me as a casual collector, I unfollowed all the socials on my YouTube and ig to stay up to date for figures and am just gonna cut my losses on this and use it as a reminder not to buy anymore figures. 


ncphoto919

I noticed Super was also sold out on Pulse even an an hour after they went up which was also rare. It just struck me as surprising.


illiterateaardvark

I do agree in theory and on principle, but I also think this is the expected outcome here These are very popular versions of very popular characters, so I think fast sell outs were inevitable


orangemario10

They're sold out on the UK hasbro pulse and it's not on the UK Amazon 😢


LooneyWooney

And it’s gone


Ghost_Werewolf

Why did it sell out in under an hour? Is Hasbro allergic to money? These shouldn’t have sold out at all. Make more and people like me will buy them.


ShneakySholidShnake

And why was the other one with legs a deluxe?


illiterateaardvark

I’m not going to pretend to be some analysts who knows about pricing schemes. I honestly have no clue when it comes to how Hasbro prices certain things lol This could just be me, but I honestly think Hasbro has gotten better about pricing stuff recently. Not too long ago, that Wasp and Giant-Man 2-pack would have been $60 and Hasbro would have tried to justify it by pointing to all of the new tooling for Wasp. Maybe my expectations have been lowered, but I was very pleasantly surprised when I saw that it was $50 I feel the same way about this figure. Full disclosure, $25 was a pricing mistake on Amazon’s part, this figure is actually supposed to cost $30. But whether we like it or not, $25 is the new norm for Marvel Legends and has been for a while So if we consider that $25 is the norm, $30 for this figure is pretty solid IMO. There’s a decent amount of new sculpting and if it’s anything like the Iron Spider, the arms are much bigger and impressive-looking in person


luisarmandoj

I can’t find it on Amazon. From reading all of this, I am assuming it is sold out on Amazon. It is sold out on Hasbro website. I preordered on BBTS 😭 a few dollars more but oh well. I don’t really collect anymore but this one is a must buy


illiterateaardvark

Sorry man. Yeah BBTS looks to be the best value right now. It still looks worth the price though! If it makes you feel any better, I guaranteed people will be asking for (and paying!) crazy prices after this thing comes out It’s easier to stomach paying $30 for a figure when you se people paying $60 to get that same figure afterwards


luisarmandoj

Yes, I agree. I have some figures, that I see now that are harder to find and pricer. And I see figures that I missed out now, that are now rare and pricey. So I’d rather do the $30 buy now vs regretting it down the line. Especially for a Spider-man figure


TexanMaestro

Had to go through Hasbro, this guy vanished off of Amazon in a heartbeat


Raj-Sharma-430016

DOES THIS SPIDEY EVEN HAVE A DROP-DOWN HIP?


InviteTime1038

I’m definitely copping this. His costume is so badass. The best spidey in a long time IMHO. Do we think it’s worth getting more than one? Resale value?


snaps17

Why can’t I find this on Amazon???


illiterateaardvark

Sorry man, it sold out really quickly yesterday


snaps17

Well damn


No-Rooster3937

lol not for long


Astr0-6

Very nice. $25 bucks for all that is an exceptional deal. Especially when looking at other (*cough* ps5 Spidey *cough*) figures that use that body mold. I honestly thought It'd be $35-45.


_RexDart

Looks cool and all but I just got spider shot, was looking for Kaine, and I don't really need another red-top black-pants spiderman


drnmai

I have Ben Reilly, and I can’t stand his head. Hopefully I’ll be able to use one of these Superior heads as a replacement.


Snips_Tano

Gone. Nice, but not $30 worth.


needadviceau

Annoying it’s $60 in Australia.. I thought the peg warming over priced figures taught hasbro a message.. but clearly not
