Marvel Legends Green Goblin
Pros
Nicely sculpted head
Nice paint deco
Cons
None
Overall
Green Goblin is already my pick of the wave for best figure. I like the character and the deco along with a nice paint application. It could have use a little move range in the arms and hips but you can still pull off the poses you want for the character. No downside to owning this one, definitely on the buy list.

First up is the best figure in the wave Green Goblin!

Every time I look at his face, I just hear Steve Blum saying, "Can Spider-Man come out and play?"
I said it back when the figure was revealed and I'll say it again now. That head is flatout ugly. It alone turned me off of buying the toy months ago which is a shame considering it's Green Goblin. Oh well, money saved.
Are you kdding me? The head is incredible. He looks like a goblin.
I already have Shocker and Ms. Marvel from this wave and they're both great...sculpts, paint apps, everything is perfect. Very good plastic quality also, no wobbly knees or anything.
that Green Goblin face/head is WICKED!!...one of my favs of the bunch..
but i will agree and say 'technically' it is ugly...i think it's supposed to be.. ;o)
Life's not fair when one is bequeathed both a lazy..and googled-eye.
For the kiddies out there, "google" had a context and meaning long before being usurped but the popular search engine...

*in old man voice* ..."ehhh...back in my day......"
You gotta 'learn' these kids...
I like how appropriately fugly the face is but I have a problem with the way the hat straps hang down like excessive material muttonchops. Not my favorite Green Goblin head sculpt but a good one still.
i permanently glued that pumpkin bomb to his hand...
Eh, those straps kind of ruin it for me

Meh, my second least favorite of the wave.
My favorite thing about this figure is the chest piece, it looks like a cool Punisher symbol. The rest is ok. The heels stick out too far past the back of the leg. It just isn't my favorite.
Spider-UK is up next.

And now my least favorite from the wave. A total waste of plastic when they couldn't even be bothered to give him additional hands or anything. Not to mention the shoulders scrape against the body when you rotate them upward.
I wonder if Ben Reilly's hands fit him? Although from the little I know about him he's more of a brawler and less of an acrobat, so I think the fists make sence.
And he may be more of a brawler, but he still shot webs the normal way.

Nice. Highlight of the wave for me, along with Green Goblin and the BAF.
Got Ms. Marvel for my girlfriend as she's a big fan. This figure is adorable.
She's an all right figure. I don't like the lack of joints on the extended arms and it would have been nice if they also gave her elongated legs too. In fact, they should have Deadpool'd her and had a different figure to come with the Sandman parts.
As for the character herself, I only know her from the appearance in Spider-Verse and she didn't wow me to care about her.
