    I like them! I was really worried after the pics on FB, but this looks much better.

      I agree these look ALOT better then the guy on Facebook made them out to be. Still I'll feel a lot better once I have mine in hand and can see first hand.

          Thanks to everyone who posted pics, $70-80 is a lot and it's nice to be able to have clear images to help you make up your mind.

            Thanks Kevin for taking the time out to take all the pictures! and the review!
            and glad Mom is ok!

            I went and grabbed one after your review.- should be a few days till I get it.
            If I like it when I see it - maybe I will grab another.

            I was in panic mode after those FB pictures - but after seeing your pictures and full review - its not as bad as I first thought.
            I think I will be happy with it once it gets here

              Glad I was able to help... I feel bad that the first guy who posted his pics on Facebook got a bad Sweater but it didn't rip because of the way it was sealed to the package he either got a bad one or doctored the seam stitch... And he dressed His Modern Spidy Poorly... IMO... Later on he posted a pic of the AE Parker and it looked fine... I asked him if he touched up the head and he just said no there was different lighting, I did not doctor any of the photos or adjust lighting... That's Dining room lighting with I phone 6 plus pics... I don't know how to use Photoshop lol

                Thanks for the pics it convinced me that the retro spidey it still pretty good. Mego collector's must really be a small community because i could not find
                any other collector's sites that even talk about the diamond spidey set

                    I want to echo the sentiments of others and thank you for the review BBK. None of the issues with this first attempt are enough to deter me from purchasing. My biggest hope is for kinder, gentler packaging for future sets. I'll make my tweaks and be happy that the set was made.

                      Nice pics. Thanks for posting. Is it just me, or does Peter look like Benedict Cumberbatch?

                      He should have brown eyes, not blue, but that's a common mistake, even in the comics.

                        Didn't the Mego AE Peter Parker have blue eyes?
                        I know Dr. Mego's repro head does.

                            I had to say that both Spidey's look really great! Honestly, I love the "new" Spidey. It reminds me of the Spiderman I loved when I was a little boy.

                                Peter Parker should have brown eyes like in the comics. Blue is just wrong.
