Tobey Maguire becoming infected by the Venom symbiote in Spider-Man 3 (2007) was nothing short of an iconic moment in any Spider-Man film to date, for the infamous "Bully Maguire" meme was born because of it.
Though the wall-crawler did not don the black suit for very long in the threequel, this new official look at a Tobey Maguire action figure made by Hot Toys provides a very concise look at the webhead being overtaken by the symbiote.
*Though this is an official look of the Hot Toys collectible, the prototype is not the complete final product*
The collectible looks just as, if not better, than what we eventually received in the final version of Spider-Man 3, for fans cannot help but convey their support, as the "Bully Maguire" meme continues to live on after 16-years; here is some feedback:
Literally breathtaking - @lberOrtayl19
Bully Maguire is back bitches - @diewo_vailel
Man if little kid me saw this he'd lose his mind lmfao... This is clean - @TGuy902
Hot Toys presents the 1/6th scale Spider-Man (Black Suit) Collectible Figure, inspired by his alternate look in Spider-Man 3.
Carefully crafted based on the appearance of Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man/ Peter Parker wearing Black Suit from Spider-Man 3, the one-sixth scale figure features a newly developed head sculpt with separate rolling eyeball system, an interchangeable masked head; a greatly-poseable body for dynamic poses; faithful recreation of the black suit with raised silver webbing patterns; accessories such as alien symbiote arms and head with protruding tongue, Spider-Man mask, assorted spider-web webbing accessories, and a themed display base.
A Special Edition available in selected markets will include an additional symbiote alien head as bonus item as exclusive display option.
The Spider-Man figure in Black Suit is a great addition to your web collection!
