At the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Doctor Strange cast a spell that meant the world forgot who Peter Parker is. Doing so was the only way to stop an incursion which ran the risk of tearing the very fabric of reality apart, but Spider-Man is still out there protecting New York.
Now living in a Manhattan apartment (God only knows how the teenager can afford the rent), the threequel ended with Peter donning a new homemade costume to protect regular people, bringing him more in line with his comic book counterpart.
That spectacular suit was a hit with fans, and thanks to Hot Toys, we finally have a closer look at the design. Heavily inspired by the comic books, it scraps any Stark Tech - which often gave Spidey's MCU costumes an overly busy aesthetic - and features two logos that appear to be at least somewhat inspired by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's Variants.
Most interesting is the fact this suit does still seem to have the moving eyes which previously allowed Spider-Man to emote in a similar way to the wall-crawler in the comics.
This 1/6th scale Hot Toys action figure features a newly developed head sculpt of Peter Parker with separate rolling eyeballs and a masked head sculpt with multiple pairs of interchangeable Spider-Man eye pieces to create numerous expressions. It also boasts a finely tailored red, metallic blue suit with black accents and web pattern, along with an array of amazing accessories including Spidey's mask and assorted spider-web shooting effect parts.
The Deluxe Version also includes a diorama base inspired by a winter rooftop corner in New York City.
Yesterday marked the one-year anniversary of Spider-Man: No Way Home's release, so unveiling this now is great timing on Hot Toys' part. Assuming Tom Holland reprises the role moving forward, we have to imagine this will be the costume he swings into action wearing, whether it's Spider-Man 4, Fantastic Four, or the next Avengers movies.
Take a closer look at this new Spider-Man figure below.
