All parts: Spider-Man (Pocket Super Heroes line, Mego)


I was six years old when the ARAH version of GI Joe was released in 1982. From that point on, I was a GI Joe fan above all else. As much as I loved Transformers and was interested in nearly every other toyline of the 80s, it was always GI Joe at the top. But the Joes were not my first 3-3/4" action figures. Before these Joes existed, I played with a variety of other toys of that scale, but they fell by the wayside when Snake-Eyes came on the scene. This project is intended to pay respect to these old toys, to restore some beat-up action figures and give them nice paint jobs, to let them know that they're still deserving of love too.

This Spider-Man figure needed a full paint job since the red plastic used for the torso is strangely semi-translucent. You may wonder whether painting all the web lines on Spidey was a tedious as it seems. Yes. Yes, it is.
