Spider-Man 2 swung onto Sony PlayStation 5 video game consoles way back in October 2923, but fans wanting toy versions of specific new suits and characters from the game have had a bit of a wait. That wait is ending, however, as Hasbro launched orders for their first half-dozen Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends GamerVerse figures this week! As part of what I think is the most Spidey-loaded Hasbro wave of all-time, 5 Spider-Man variants and Black Cat are now up for PO! Will any of them be joining your collection’s Spider-shelf?

One of the many downsides to being half-blind now is that my days of playing complicated 3-D video games like Spider-Man 2 are done. As such, I’ve never actually played even a minute of this sequel that I’m absolutely certain is a masterpiece. Even so, what I still love and enjoy are toys, so let’s take a look at this new GamerVerse wave from Hasbro…

The case ratios for this wave of 6” figures are as follows:
(1) Peter Parker Black Suit
(1) Miles Morales Upgraded Suit Style
(1) Miles Morales Boricua Suit
(1) Peter Parker Anti-Venom Suit Style
(1) Black Cat Felicia Hardy
(1) Miles Morales Brooklyn 2099

One of everything. Doesn’t get any more simple or straightforward than that!
What I guess many would define as the “headliner” of the wave is the Miles Morales Upgraded Suit figure that comes in the red and blue and white colors of the iconic Advanced Suit from the first game. This is sadly a repaint of the previously released Miles Morales Spider-Man 2 figure, which wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea even back in 2023.

Miles in these colors feels awkward to me, and I much prefer his alternate costumes from the game. I think a lot of casual fans and gamers will see this on store shelves and pick it up, though this one isn’t for me.
What could be for me, however, is the Miles Morales Brooklyn 2099 suit figure. This is an all-new sculpt that feels really fresh and different, even if it is just an alternate costume for looks only.
Basically, this figure just looks cool, and Hasbro is able to budget it in with fully unique parts since there’s no BAF in this wave.

Brooklyn 2099 gets alt hands and two web effects. The solid amount of accessories with each figure in this assortment is also likely possible due to not having to budget in a Build-A-Figure.The Miles Morales Boricua Suit is another real eye-grabber of a figure, as the color scheme and style really reminds me of Bucky’s Captain America costume from the comics. This figure looks to have a mix of fresh and reused tooling.

A sort of mash-up of the classic Miles Morales costume and a Puerto Rican flag, this costume makes for a really slick looking variant. The sculpted upper torso and butterfly shoulders are really appreciated. Though I couldn’t play this game, this is the kind of colorway I can really get behind and want anyway.

But speaking of wanting, there’s one guaranteed “buy” for me in any Spider-Man series (including this one): any black suit Spider-Man figure. For this GamerVerse version of one of the primary suits in the video game, Hasbro is appropriately giving us an all-new mold with a surprising amount of unique sculpting and texturing on it.

I really, really like the sheer amount of sculpted details on this Black Suit Spider-Man, although I think the choice to omit butterfly shoulders so as to not break up the “chest spider” design is a controversial one. This is a keeper for me nonetheless and the likely “hot” figure of the wave.

Conversely, I think the blue Anti-Venom Suit Spider-Man Peter Parker will be the slowest seller from this wave by far. Opting for this palette swap before a proper colored GamerVerse version feels bizarre, and the use of the aging Sunfire body mold doesn’t help matters.

The shiny blue on this figure is really pretty and all, but it’s such an oddball colorway choice. I can’t see this being high on many fans’ lists.

Not having a Build-A-Figure in a wave to encourage sales of ultra-niche entries like this one is really damaging to the sales of a figure like this for sure. I’m hopeful we’ll get this repainted in the default colors as some sort of exclusive release.

Finally, we’ve got the one non-Spider-Man figure in this set: GamerVerse Black Cat. This figure is just a thing of beauty with the fully pin-less 100% new sculpt and ball-jointed torso.

Felicia even gets a movable ponytail! Hasbro really went all-out for the singular non-Spidey in this video games series.

Felicia Hardy is a favorite of mine from the comics, so I do feel the tug of temptation to snap up this GamerVerse Black Cat even though I can’t play the video game. Hasbro did good with this one.

The Marvel Legends Spider-Man 2 GamerVerse series figures are now up for order, and are set to arrive in late spring. Unless I’m way off the mark, I’d expect the Black Suit Spider-Man to be the hot seller in this wave and most likely to sell out during pre-orders (although Black Cat seems likely to be popular as well).

What are your thoughts on this set, Marvel collectors? Are there other characters or even Spider-Man suits from the game you’d like to see Hasbro capture in 6” figure form? What figures from this wave—if any—will you be picking up yourself?
