Out of all the Spider-Man figures I had as a kid, Radioactive Armor Spidey was my favorite. Sure he didn’t have the armor pieces since I was four at the time, but man did I love him. Actually just ordered one complete on card alongside several others.
One of my best friends as a kid would constantly choose the weirder gimmicky versions of characters over what many of us would argue were better choices. Since we always traded figures, I subsequently ended up with a lot of them, in this case the Radioactive Spider Armor one. They definitely have their place and could be a lot of fun when you wanted to play Spider-Man but were tired of the regular old Spider-Man look. Now as an adult looking at this wave, when I consider it's mostly kind of hodge podged together through repaints and unused molds from other lines, it's really kind of charming. Certainly wasn't a bad way to pick up a Spider-Man or Doc Ock figure in 1996 if you had missed out or were new to the line.
I believe vault gaurdsmen ‘s mold and the Spider-Man with the armor ports was originally intended to be part of the canceled final wave of Iron Man line. X-men absorbed some of those molds too.
Yes finally! I remember these back in the day. I've loved all your retro toybiz reviews so far. You should get someone to do a repaint of a parachute/webglider spiderman in the black costume. I think that would look awesome and it be better than barrel chested one that we got. It would add to the collection. You should do a top 10 favourite figures.
There was An actual black costume Spider-Man released as part of a Sam’s club excl box set, doenst have the weird chest thing like the first version. I’ll show em off in a upcoming vid. Def will be doing a top # vid when all of these are done! Thank you for watching
More great memories. Ultimate Octopus was my only doc ock. I never found the first version. Quick question- hard to make it out in the video but is doc ock translucent? I think mine was!
the doc ok tentacle weapons are cool, prob try to find those to add to my original. definitely getting that radioactive spiderman. that was the one i had as a kid
They should have included a couple more villains or other characters, other than Spidey, and it would have been great (so many tech based villains out there). All in all, not that bad a series of toys. At least there are few unreleased IM molds in there.
How many more waves are left to show? In my mind I always thought that (quite geeky admittedly) the earlier waves (one to five) were more tv show and six onwards were more comic book inspired. Reason being the spiderman mold being different.
All toybiz had to do was repaint a parachute/webglider spiderman or the multi articulated spiderman with the black suit with tinged of blue on them if you wanted something tv inspired or web cannon repaint in the four pack box set if you wanted something comic book. Hated the barrel chest thing.
Anti Symbiote Spidey is one of my all time favourite Spidey figures. The little guy is just icing on the cake
Really cool set. Love that guardsman. Need that in legends form!
It’s a bizarre Spider-Man line and I love it!
I'm actually surprised Hasbro didn't come back to the Vault Guardsman. Army builder, and all the symbiote releases, it would make sense
Never say never
It’s rumored for this year
And now the figure's out!
It's a little venomized chupacabra
*sigh* I wish I could own all of 90's Spider-man figures.

Awesome! Great Segment on a little piece of my Childhood...
Which was your fave from the wave?
@@ToyShiz Spider-Man
@@angelodellorto6414 that narrows it down 😂
@Ian Raneses I think magic may be involved
@Ian Raneses the gathering kind
YES! Do the Iron Man line and the Hulk line as well if you've got them
Ironman will def happen, hulk prolly later later
@@ToyShiz Sweet!! I’ll take it lol can’t wait
I've had the green guy all this time and I never knew where he was from lol always thought it was a green iron man
Kinda is, it’s a repurpose armor from the toybiz Ironmans.
Any marvel toybiz reviews are good to me
That’s what I’m sayin

Love that paint deco for doc ock
Would love to see the iron man waves! Great vid
Thank you
I had the clamp spiderman as a kid. Never used thd accessories
Ha yeah I def wouldn’t have either
I don’t know if you know this or not, but the Vault Guardsman and Radioactive Spider-Man are from unreleased Iron Man figures.
Thems the rumor
@@ToyShiz It’s not a rumor www.toymania.com/archives/ironman/series5.html
@@ghostfrog6 yes, well aware. all my Ironman ref from the beginning of my vid, thank you
More great memories. Ultimate Octopus was my only doc ock. I never found the first version. Quick question- hard to make it out in the video but is doc ock translucent? I think mine was!
No he’s all solid, although that would have been a cool variant
the doc ok tentacle weapons are cool, prob try to find those to add to my original. definitely getting that radioactive spiderman. that was the one i had as a kid
Good luck in the search and thank you for watching
Can you review the toybiz savage hulk figure from the hulk animated series line or wave 1-2 of the ironman figures?
The Ironman line is a lot more likely atm, I honestly never grabbed any of the hulks back in the day. But prolly in the future I def will
@@ToyShiz ok
@Parker Brown epic
I would love to see Iron Man videos

Yes do iron man
Would love to see iron man TAS video reviews
Def working on it

One left now. Yeah towards the end they started hitting more comic notes as opposed to animated series
Off topic, Do you have links for McFarlane DC last knight on earth wave? Thank you bro.
We’re you able to get em? Just saw this message
13:14 I have this one, only it came with only 2 parts of the arnor
Hi toyshiz
Hello
All toybiz had to do was repaint a parachute/webglider spiderman or the multi articulated spiderman with the black suit with tinged of blue on them if you wanted something tv inspired or web cannon repaint in the four pack box set if you wanted something comic book. Hated the barrel chest thing.
@Parker Brown I agree. Some blue shading would be great.
😍😍😍😍
