I've found the RYV Spidey to be a bit too bulky and tall when stood with other Legends. It makes for a really good DD, but too big for Spidey. I also think the head on RYV is a bit odd. I bought 4 of them expecting it to be the best ever, and I do sometimes use it in photos as my go-to modern Spidey... but often revert to the Retro for New Avengers era photos.
I love the size of the Max figure, but it is undeniably 90s specific. If they release it with brighter colors and a classic head, you have a default Spidey.
Yes, all valid points. I'm not super wild about RYV's default head either. But the Peter Parker head that came with him is infinitely better than the one that came with the Maximum figure.
I guess I'm just getting a little tired of buying the same figures over and over again every time a new "best ever" version is released.
I was absolutely steadfast in my assertion that RYV would be the last red & blue "classic" Spidey I would ever need.
Then along comes Maximum Spider-Man and I get a serious case of FOMO and order multiples of that figure. "Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!" [sigh]
