hey guys we just supersorrell thank you very much look what i got we got two spider pigs
bad a big spider but no spider ham i'm getting spider ham this is spider-man and we've got
two versions of him we've got the toy the toy box version from disney store and we
have the marvel legends version and i want to take a moment to see which one i prefer
and which one i think is the best personally i think you guys know what i'm going to choose but
we're still going to look at them anyway and look at each one and take a look at why and each one's
got you know different merits for different things so first of all here is spider-ham from the marvel
legends series this came out a little while ago now uh not long after the film had been out and
we got a few of the characters including like spdr um all based on their comic book versions
not based on the movie versions we've got the movie versions of these figures coming out
real soon though with marvel legends replaced by pre-order the other day i'm excited to see those
but let's take a look so this is spiderman he's on his head he's on a ball joint so you can make
him look up and down as well as left and right i was never a fan of the snout on this one that's
now always seemed far too blocky along with his legs and things that all seem very blocky
um like it was a cheap accessory piece rather than a figure and his arms do lift out at that
side and do also rotate there's the nice hinges on the elbow there she can rotate his arm back and
forth as well hands just move around there's no ball joint action for the hands which is a shame
so you are stuck with him just either you can't get him to do the spider web sign you know the
whip but it just looks weird because then if you look at the rest of hand it's like the whole block
piece behind it it's rubbish for articulation is this figure because like with the way swivel
you move the way swivel and look what it does to the figure it contorts it it makes it look awful
so if you take out like i think photography it looks like two two pieces jammed together so i
never liked that i never liked the articulation of this one same with the feet so you can rotate the
feet around as well and that's the last point of articulation here to try and steady him and
things like that but it leaves the mismarkings of the figures it looks like it's out of joint
and as much as we play with this way swivel it always seems to separate so you always seem to
need to push it forward a little bit to make him look then he always look but he always looks
like he's leaning forward so i've never been a fan of this figure since it came out it really
upset when it came back i was really looking forward to really cool spider-ham there's so
many opportunities to make a small articulated figure like spider-ham and then include a boatload
of cartoon accessories to go with him whether it be signs that say bang or you know mallets
and things like that think of you know acme and the the looney tunes cartoons think of that kind
of concept that's basically what spider-ham is it's from a looney tunes style cartoon universe
so i think they could have done a lot more with it at the time than what they did so
this figure did disappoint me uh but i'm happy to say there is a new version coming out based on the
um the stylized character that we did get in the into the spider-verse and that brings me on to the
toy box figure this is the toy box video that came with a spider-man on the spider bike it's
come out quite recently not a lot of people still have this but it is available on both the dizzy
store uk and us websites and if you're a marvel legends collector then i think this is going to
be the one for you because even though there is a newer version of this coming out with the
uh marvel legends figure it comes with spider gwen i think he's still gonna want this version because
of the articulation so let's take a look the head is on a ball joint and he can look all the way up
as well as all the way down and left and right and he can also tilt his head a little bit as well
the arms do rotate at that top hinge they move in and out as well and quite far back and the hands
also are on a full twisting ball joint which is nice there's no elbow joints on this one
but it makes up for it even with the legs the fact the legs can lift outwards as well as forwards and
there's even articulation in the foot to get some proper cartoon expressions off of him
we've got the same hands we've got an open palm hand to put wet weapons our accessories in
and the thwip hand and he even has a little oinky tail for the pocky pig
same as unlike our marvel legends version that didn't include the tail
but for me i definitely like spiderm
especially this toy box version i think the toy box version wins hands down i think marvel legends
collect collectors if you've got this one i don't think you'll be disappointed in it because it's
a lot more articulated v displays and it will scale because the toy box figures are five and
three quarter inch in scale this guy is going to be a lot shorter than all your figures anyway
he's only meant to be like the height of like you say stitch or yoda or those kind of characters so
he's only going to be small anyway by comparison to others so i i think this is a great figure
but don't you know that's my word for it let's head on down to the desk cam and see them side
by side and i think you'll definitely decide for yourself what you think whether you're a marvel
legends fan through and through or whether you're gonna like this new version of spider
so let's head on down to the desk cam spider-ham is peter parker and was first featured as a star
of the 1982 humorous one-shot marvel tales with a backup cast of other anthropomorphic funny animal
parody versions of popular marvel superheroes such as captain america a cat version of captain
america hulk bunny a rabbit version of hulk and goose rider the goose version of ghost rider
over the years have been many more added to that including deadpool's duck and many other
characters spider spider ham as late later two years later became a marvel star comics imprint
uh this series was published by monthly and lasted 17 issues before its consolation in 1987.
with the cancellation of peter parker the spectacular spider-ham the character became a
backup feature in marvel tales a monthly reprint series showcasing spider-man's past adventures
fast forward to the modern era guys and he is now the star of one of the great great movies of
spider-man which is spider-man spider-verse it was a knockout movie that none of us were expecting it
to be and we are getting a sequel very soon so it's amazing to see that this character goes all
the way back to november of 1983 and there's been so many variations and spin-offs and
um you know uses of the character now it's quite funny his place of origin is earth 831 and he's
a pig mutate alter ego is peter benjamin parker um he's got the same abilities as spider-man and
was invented by um lara hammer tom defalco and mark armstrong can't wait to see him be
reprised by john melanie as they bring him back for spider-man into the spider-verse 2
very much looking forward to that movie so guys here they are side by side what do you think i'll
let them do the talking for them i really do like these figures and i'm being very biased
towards the toy box one but that's just how i feel i do like the toy toybox one so much more uh than
any of the others that they've made um this one especially the the marvel legends version is nice
it was great at the time but we have had greater addition since then including this one and before
people start yes i do know they're based on very different artists renderings of spider-ham
obviously the one that marvel edges made is very much based on that original 1983 comic book
uh you can tell that i'm looking at it with the big blocky nose and everything like that
i just prefer this newer more refined version of the character which feels more in keeping
with the character's identity and you know what i love his stupid little tale and everything
about this little figure and the fact that it's more articulated than the marvel legends version
and in the imagine remember when this came out we paid 20 pounds for the marvel legends version
this guy comes as a big pack with a spider-man the spider bike this with a side car that spider-ham
can sit in and even has his mallet which i can't find off hand right now but he does have
his mallet as well so i mean same for the same price for the same thing you know what i'm saying
um so yeah for me personally definitely gonna have to give it to spiderm from the toybox range
but guys what are your thoughts let me know in the comments down below you're going to see me do more
videos like this where we compare two similar characters from similar lines then please let
us know in the comments down below but guys let's head back to the main cam and finish
off this video and let's not forget guys that the toy box one did come with the uh sound effects as
well i've just removed the side car for now but it does have the sound effects so we can even hear
spider ham speak which is so much more awesome oh i'm not sure there we go you can hear him
speak as well the top button is for spider-ham so i'll go ahead and play some of his sound
effects i smell
i'm the spectacular spider here
it looks like evil as a foot
so there you have it guys spiderman's voice as well
