I'm clicking on the link in the email Pulse sent me, but Youtube keeps telling me the video is private. Anyone else having issues?

 

EDIT: Activated at 3PM EST, just like originally scheduled.

Scarlet Spider on RYV buck is a no-brainer, looks great.  Jack O'Lantern is cool too but I wish he was similarly articulated so he could actually nail that pose on the box.

So with Jack O'Lantern introducing a scale mail torso with butterfly joints, I'm sure a classic Green Goblin update will be coming soon too.   Also will we get a Black Knight update?  Maybe with his pegasus?   It was mentioned a new Legendary Rider is coming out next year.

Neither Green Goblin nor Black Knight need a scale mail torso though. Now Triton on the other hand

Yeah, Jack O'Lantern is kind of the opposite of Green Goblin. Scaly torso but smooth arms and legs. Green Goblin needs the opposite. 

We are desperately in need of a new Green Goblin, though. Preferably with scales more similar to this, rather than the giant ones we had previously. I hate that sculpt.

Did they say if these 3 are part of a 6 figure wave? Or are they all independent?

If they made a whole new pinless scaled body it could be used with other pieces for a new takes on lots of characters. A new goblin with pinless arms and legs, a new head sculpt with better painted eyes and comic accurate boots would go a long way. Trick out a new glider and lots of accessories I'm pretty sure he could be fairly sold at the deluxe Black Widow price point.  Triton could use the entire pinless scale body with trunks and oddly enough classic Iron Man boots and gloves. My guess is they would boot on the tubing down the arm.

These looks pretty great!

I wasn't dying for a new Scarlet Spidey, but he is obviously an improvement in just about every way. Will be happy to pick him up.

Jack O'Lantern looks fantastic too - glad to finally have the classic version done right, my old Spider-Man Classics figure got a leaky battery a few years ago and has had tacky plastic ever since. Plus, y'know, he was never accurate to begin with.

Last Stand Spider-Man - the lack of torso articulation doesn't bother me a ton because he's not a vital figure for me, but I have to say I don't *love* that they're making a habit of this. It makes perfect sense on First Appearance Iron Man, but I don't love it here and on Luke Cage.

Wonder if we see the second half of this wave at the London con tomorrow? Dan did say it was a Spider-heavy few days. Was his expectation-setting about not seeing anything video game/movie related just for the Pulse event, or for both days?

These three were it for today, but there are more reveals coming from MCM London tomorrow.

Last Stand Spidey was a big want for me from Spiderverse, so I guess I'm among the very few that are happy with this reveal. I do want a new Mad Jack, and this one looks great. Scarlet Spider also looks very good, and I'll take any Spidey they put on the RYV body. I just wish they'd switch to a hinge neck.

Have to say,  I'm a tad underwhelmed.   Not that the updated Jack O'lantern doesn't look great -  it does.   But of the three reveals the only 'never been done' offering is a minor Spider-Man variant.     How many times are they going to try to sell me Scarlet Spider?    The Rhino wave one I guess is fairly expensive on the secondary market now and this one is a better figure than the retro release -  I just wish one of the reveals would have been of a character I don't already own.

They said to expect some reveals tomorrow at MCM and implied they would be Spider-Man related as well. Crossing fingers for Swarm.

I've wanted Last Stand Spidey for so long I'm only mildly annoyed about the torso articulation. Feels like a really silly oversight/corner cut. I was hoping it was some kind of rubber overlay like they've done in other lines like Black Series but it doesn't look that way. 

I don't NEED another Scarlet Spider, still got the Rhino wave one literally in front of me on my desk, but the upgrades to the spider bodies have been so great I can't not re-buy him. They somehow keep improving Spidey figures I already totally loved and had no problem with to make them better enough to get me to bite.
