    Need some advice about FF Spiderman

    I purchased a fist fighting Spiderman on Ebay. The paint on his face is mostly gone. I was going to repaint the eyes. Should I paint in the webbing on the head as well? I am not sure which way I should go with this. Keep it stock or more cosmetically correct.

    Thanks for your opinions.

    IF you are going to repaint it, it really doesn't matter. Paint it the way you like it.

    The moment you repaint it though, the value will drop and it will be harder to re-sell if you choose to do that.

    Most people want their Megos as original as possible...So keep that in mind.

      Thanks for your help. I will repaint it. If I choose to sell it down the road, I can always get a new head for it at that time.

        Be sure to post a pic of your handy work when you get it done.

          hi keep in mind fist fighters have a unique head and neck plug a regular spidey head will be loose and floppy on a fist fighter body ,thats how you can tell if you have a original or a put together job ,also the body at the neck hole is verry brittle and flagile ,and more often than not break whe you remove the head from a fistfighter ,enjoy your figure for what it is and what its worth to you cheers chris

            I created a thread in the custom forum if interested. I haven't had any problems switching out heads into ff bodies though. I had done a ff Aquaman & E2 Robin. The ff Shazam and Black Adam I did using the retro action figures heads are loose though. I will have to figure out a way to tighten them up. I posted threads of them all in the custom forum as well.

            Thank you all for your help.
