Disgruntled special effects artist Quentin Beck takes revenge by framing Spider-man for a museum robbery only for his criminal scheme to be revealed by our friendly neighbourhood web-slinger. Mysterio is probably one of the goofiest looking villains Spidey has faced but he's got that Ditko charm that's endeared him to many a Marvel fanatic.
I really really wanted this figure and managed to track him down online for probably way too much money but that'll be forgotten as he takes a place of prominence in my display. I love Ditko's art and this figure is positively oozing with Ditko hallmarks and a hint of Lovecraftian horror.
Fishbowl, check! |
Quilty bodysuit, check! |
Bizarre accent designs, check! |
Gorgeous Dikto-y gloves. |
The fingers on this hand are kind of wonky but less noticeable from the right angle. |
Such a delicious pattern on the inside of the cape. |
Awesomely creepy head under the ol' fishbowl. |
I really had to turn down the light to get the details to show up in the photo. |
Those tentacles look amazing though! |
The grid lines are very well done. |
GAH! So spooky! |
These translucent green smoke effects for Mysterio's feet are also really great looking. |
Don't call up what you can't put down. |
He's got the razzle dazzle! |
"FWOOSH!" |
"To your evil scheme I say Mysteri-NO!" |
"...Really Web-head? That's the best quip you've got?" |
"Time for a SUPERIOR comeback, courtesy of the Superior Spider-Man!" |
"..." |
"Oh dear..." |
Sneak peak at some more Sinister Spider-Foes you'll be seeing eventually. |
"Darn it! You zoomed out too far and ruined the illusion!" |
So...awesome... |
