I’m looking to get a Spider-Man figure that is well articulated, sturdy, and at a decent price

I have the amazing spider man 2 spidey pictured but the bicep swivel broke

How good is the homecoming marvel legends?
Also how good are the KO revotechs? I don’t want another broken figure (The real deal is hard to find and probably way too much)
I also prefer sculpted webbing so the pizza spidey isn’t the most ideal for me

I've been eyeballing a Marvel select Homecoming figure. I don't have an MCU spider but don't want to spend ~$100 on a figure arts or something

Get the upcoming Mafex. It is looking to be the definitive 6 in Spidey.

The Homecoming and Pizza Legends are both perfectly fine by ML standards - you're not gonna get crazy poses out of them compared to some of the other options, but you're also not gonna pay as much. I'd avoid the Selects unless you really prioritize sculpt over articulation. The SHF Homecoming one is great, and you can probably find it for a pretty decent price if you stalk the BST for a while. For comic Spideys, the Mafex comes out in a couple of months and looks really promising, but it's not out yet so caveat emptor. The bootleg Revoltech is alright if you can get it for under $20, but not nearly as good as later Amazing Yamaguchi bootlegs.

The upcoming Mafex might be your best if the QC holds out to be great. Wait for reviews before you preorder that though. Heard positive things about the KO Revos though the real things aren't that expensive.

Basically
Comic look - Upcoming Mafex
Crazy poses - Revo
Movie - Figuart/Mafex
On a budget - Legends

Avoid the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Mafex as he is a floppy mess. One of their earlier figures back when QC was 95% shit.

The Homecoming Mafex is probably the best figure I own. If the comic version coming out in February is as good as their Gwenpool, it'll be great

Revo or Mafex, depending on your taste.
Comic Mafex if you want something as smooth as possible while still being quite poseable (just pray that it has good QC).
Homecoming Mafex if you prefer the slightly Ditko suit.
Revoltech if you want the lightning-bolt dynamism of Yamaguchi.
I wouldn't recommend MLs because they can never hit all of the poses you want. Many of them lack ankle swivels and all of them lack to joint, both of which help Spidey a lot. Some of them lack butterfly joints, which Spidey also needs. And they're not likely to have enough hands, since any good Spidey needs a minimum three pairs: thwipping, open, and fist/gripping. More expensive figures having web pieces is also nice.
Consider grabbing some white floral wire if you want more webs.

The one you posted has A+ articulation for modern Marvel Legends and if you like sculpted lines he's the one to get. His proportions are kinda iffy though, butterfly joints are ugly and waist far too squished, so his thighs jut out from his pelvis area as a result. Once you get him posed up he's not a bad figure though.

Are there any problems I should be watching out for on ko revos?
Like paint defects or breaking joints?

The Revoltech is total trash so i can only imagine how bad the KO is. I had him but sold him after about a week. Im hoping the Mafex comic version has no QC issues. ML pizza Spidey is my current Spiderman until I get the Mafex in.

Don't get a KO Revoltech. It'll be worse than just an ML. It sounds like for your price range you really just want MLs.

The upcoming MAFEX looks absolutely incredible like people have said but it's not cheap. The Revoltech isn't cheap either and I like it but it's admittedly kind of weird so if you don't normally spend that much money on a single figure the Revoltech is not the one to make an exception for IMO. The MAFEX might turn out to be.

I have a bunch of older revoltechs, so I have zero problems with the weird articulation(in fact I prefer it)
I’m just worried about breakage and paint not lining up with sculpt.
I just miss when revoltech were actually budget figure options for good poseabilty.

>Posting my poorly lit desk spidey revoltech pic

You noticed me senpai..

Anyway, I love my spidey revoltech. I also just got the X-force DP and love him even more. I think the joints really help capture that comic book style. That is just my opinion, of course, I could see why some don't like them.

This may be the worst pic I've seen of Revo Spider-Man.
No other picture has shown his weird joint cuts, gappiness and overall strange proportions as masterfully as this one.
I have no doubt we will see this picture making the rounds in countless Marvel generals demonstrating shortcomings of this figure.

Ok yeah then if you know what you're getting into with the weird articulation (the only part that I would call "bad" is the knees) a legit Revoltech is definitely a solid option, mine is very sturdy and the paint is clean. Only paint thing I could complain about is that the black wash for the web lines is darker in some places and lighter in others.

If I didn't have the Revoltech already I probably wouldn't buy it, personally, now that the MAFEX is on the way and would just be waiting for the MAFEX, but it's not really cause of anything particularly wrong with the Revoltech, just that the MAFEX seems better.

But yeah I wouldn't get the KO Revoltech if you're worried about breakage.

As someone who generally considers myself a proponent of weird Yamaguchi Revoltech articulation, I honestly still think the Spider-Man is kind of bad. The legs are so weird that it's just not intuitive or fun to pose, and the knees just always look like shit. It's hard to describe exactly what's fucked up about them but they're just completely wrong lol.

On the other hand I really like Venom and Wolverine who just have normal hinges for the knees but are otherwise basically the same articulation. So it really is just the knees I guess? But god I hate them.

In defence of Spider-Man, he was one of the early Amazing Yamaguchi figures. You can see him experimenting with joint set ups and learning from through through each new figure. But yeah it's not the strongest AY by any means.
Looking at how Captain America and Wolverine are, it appears the knee/overlap between upper leg and lower leg happens on the lower part while the overlap on Spiderman is on the upper leg. I think that really highlights that gappy look Spider-Man has in the knee region. The hinge also helps massively.

I'd be all over a new Spider-Man by him using what he has learnt though.

Spider-Man really shows how early in the toyline it was, comparing that to later ones like Cap and Gambit is nearly night and day. I think we're a long way away from an outright renewal of Spider-Man, but i'm really hoping we get a Noir or 2099 Spider-Man from them instead as a pseudo renewal/seeing what they can do with the improved techniques on a Spidey.

Hoping they could make a black suit spider man soon

That will sell like hot cakes

Got myself a ko revoltech and will probably swap out the joints in the future

Also looking into getting the legends homecoming spidey

On another note, what is a good black suit spider man?

You might consider the KO SHF. I've handled the KO Iron Spider and it was great. Sadly, that led me to buying earlier KO SHF, which were crap.

But hey, you want cheap but good Spidey. So from my brief personal experience, go for the KO SHF.
