I think it works OK on this body, although MJ’s hair is kind of at odds with the sculpted lapels on 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. Gwen’s okay, and honestly better than I expected, but Spidey’s just kind of pointless, even moreso than the unmasked figure from the same set.

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. From figures to vehicles to premium roleplay items, the Marvel Legends Series offers elite character-inspired product for Marvel fans and collectors. I may have only bought her for the Build-A-Figure piece, but Gwenpool is a fairly strong figure in her own right. She’s built on the Spider-Girl body, which is sensible enough, given that’s the same body Hasbro used for Spider-Gwen.This reminds me that my camera is on its last leg and I’m going to need to invest in a new one real soon.

There’s the basic eyes, the squinty eyes, the asymmetric eyes (by far my favorite), and a fully unmasked face. Fans, collectors, and kids alike can enjoy this 6-inch-scale Gwen Stacy figure, 2 accessories, and Spider-Ham mini-figure, inspired by the characters from the Marvel animated movie, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. I would have been just as happy to have gotten these in a two-pack and not had to cry over the torn packaging.Of course, some of these releases are simply recycled figures in new packaging, but some, like today’s pair, are brand new. The hood hangs a touch closer to the masked head than it does in the film, but the general appearance works pretty well, and fits the overall clean aesthetic. I really appreciate the little details that Hasbro has peppered throughout the sculpt, such as the piping on her socks under her shin guards. Gwen did eventually get the Toy Biz treatment in their Silver Age line, one of their many one-off lines distributed through specialty retailers, so she wasn’t entirely left out of the fun. I also found that these new feet made the figure a little more stable when standing, which I definitely appreciated.
