Another blindbox fun! Yes, I got more coming, don't judge me! This time around, I managed to snag the poster boy for the Spider-verse series! So enough of all that. Let's check out this figure, shall we?
Like I mentioned before, it's not a bad wave to collect. There are some good-looking ones and, not to mention, I want that Spider-Gwen! Though this blind bag shenanigan is sometimes a bit stressful. But that's part of it, right?
Miles Morales comes with three accessories: the portal/figure stand, two web lines. All sculpted well and can't complain.
With this toyline, the proportions lean towards a cartoony and almost 'chibi' look. Miles' head is not proportioned with the rest of his body, while his arms and legs are tiny and nearly pitiful. I'm accustomed to stylized figures, so this isn't a deal breaker for me. I welcome them. So for Miles, I'd say he looks just fine. There aren't a lot of details to him since he is wearing a skintight suit, but I do appreciate the sculpted eyes. He's got a smooth texture and, as I stated earlier, the proportions don't do anything to deter me from appreciating him.
His pose is pretty awesome! It's dynamic and very Spider-Man-like, and it looks good to display. I love how that figure's stand/portal complements the entirety of the pose.
Much like the proportions, the colors for Miles are a bit more stylized. Miles is dominantly dark blue with shades of light blue to give him some shadowing. Much like the proportions for this series, the colors have a bit more creative choices, and I'm all for it. Miles looks good.
Another snag from POPMART, Jessica Drew from Across the Spider-verse. They scale well together and the work on both looks great especially side by side.
Yes, I have a few Miles Morales POPs that would make a good comparison to this POPMART version. Speaking of, I do need a regular Miles on my Spider-verse wall, eh?
It's a cute little addition to the oddball side of my collection. Well, not so odd, right? It is Marvel. Regardless, with its blind bag nature, it's hard to recommend, as it's challenging for some to justify spending good money on something they don't like, or worse, a duplicate. Regardless, he's a cool little figurine. Nice pose and details with a vibrant coloring that makes him stick out. I like him, and for those who are a blind bag collector, there's plenty of fun with this wave, and Miles is a good pull!
Until Next Time!
