Re-releases of the Walgreens Moon Knight and the AF15 Spider-Man. Anyone see differences from the originals?
Is this Moon Knight really necessary? I feel like I've bought a lot of Moon Knight figures in the last handful of years and I feel like this one might be redundant. I know with the Spider-Man someone here was just asking for the figure with the blue spider on his back, so at least that one was asked for, I guess.
These Target exclusives might be skippable for me.

I think the spider on the back of original AF15 Spidey was black, not blue.
EDIT: PC beat me to it!
Target has an upcoming toy event mid-September. These are probably part of that.
I kinda want that Moon Knight, since I never got the Walgreens one, cause I could never find it anywhere.
Honestly, I think this is terrific. Some people like to complain about Hasbro being lazy when they do very similar rereleases like this, but I think it's a great idea. I've always been a big advocate for it. There's always gonna be new collectors that missed out or even just releases that skipped people by.
I already have the First Appearance Spider-Man, but I've kinda been tempted to pick up another since I really do just love it as a figure. However, the insane aftermarket prices made that hard to do. Now? I can just pick this up!
I missed out on the Walgreens Moon Knight and kinda wish I didn't. Now I have a second chance!
Moon Knight not on the Vulcan buck this time?
Don't have access to my figures at the moment - is there any deco difference in Moon Knight? Not an in card collector, but he's one of my favorite characters, so thinking about picking him up and keeping MOC.
I guess these will fill a niche since the originals go for $50 dollars now, but so do a lot of other figures.
They REALLY should have at least made changes to the Moon Knight figure. That buck is a joke for him.
So many other things with no tooling could have been done. These will rot on the pegs eventually just like the Gambit and Rogue did forever. I think the Gambit is still available online at Target, and now there will be yet ANOTHER Gambit and Rogue in the same style released on a retro card. At least those all had different deco I guess.
Where are things like Shield agent or Hellfire club goons if you are going to do a straight re-release? 🤔
On what panel in which issue was Spider-Man's spider miscolored blue? I'm guessing it must have happened at some time.

It's not a miscolor, it's the original color, as seen throughout AF#15. I don't remember if it already changed by the time ASM#1 came out, or if it changed at some point during that title.

I love this body for Spider-Man, I love the red and black, and I like the added touch of the super retro blue spider on his back, so I'll get this one.
Missed out on that Spidey last year; so I’ll def preorder this one.
Happy for the ones that weren't able to pick up the Walgreens exclusive. Happy for me as I never picked up AF15.
