G.I. Jigsaw's Spider-Man Peg People Wave 3!

 

During the early evening on April 10, 2024, I got an unexpected text from George of G.I. Jigsaw, saying since he couldn't make it to comic con with me that he had an all new batch of peg people. Having just gotten home myself, I eagerly told him that I was there. A short while later, and he was at my doorstep, handing me a plastic container.

As I moved the first piece of paper towel, I immediately spotted...er...The Spot, which I grabbed with an audible, "Awesome, The Spot!"


However, this was just the tip of the iceberg. George had been busy. Tucked within were a whopping ten characters in total. As I pulled each one out, they were immediately recognizable, and I made sure to compliment George on a job well done for how each one was easily identifiable.

The Spot

Flash Thompson

Shocker

Rhino

Scorpion

I may have surprised George with the below figure. He asked me if I recognized it, to which I said, "Sure do! That's Molten Man!" While one could say it meant that I know too much about Spider-Man, I see it more so as a testament to George's skills to make each character, even the most obscure, recognizable.

Molten Man

Chameleon

Gwen Stacy

Black Cat

Kingpin

Of course, once out of the box, we both raced up the steps to set them up with waves one and two. Then, being Bloggers, we both naturally started snapping more photos.

Spider-Man, Electro, Doc Ock, The Spot, Kraven
Black Cat, Mysterio, Vulture, (part of) Sandman

(part of) Black Cat, Mysterio, Vulture, Sandman
Shocker, Kingpin, Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane Watson,
J. Jonah Jameson, Aunt May, Flash Thompson, Scorpion

Scorpion, Rhino, Lizard, Green Goblin, Chameleon
Molten Man, Carnage

(part of) Scorpion, Rhino, Lizard, Green Goblin,
Chameleon, Molten Man, Carnage, Venom,
Symbiote Spider-Man

These little wooden things are so freaking awesome! This is the Spider-Man toy line I always wanted! Well fleshed out, with a promise of more on the horizon! I'm so pumped to have more on my shelf, and looking forward to what George makes next.

Here's a nice long shot, and then one zoomed in.

In total, there are twenty-five of them between the three waves he's done. That's impressive, considering after he completed wave one, I sent him a list of seventy-five more possible characters, which he's accepted the challenge on.

This is my favorite modern toy line!

Thanks, George!

For those of you wondering just how insane I was with the list I sent George, here, let me break it down for you, keeping in mind that he came up with wave one. While my initial list ended at wave 16, because I'm OCD, well...there's more I thought of while typing this out.

  1. It's a lot of fun making these. I may have to keep you on your toes and randomly do like Wave 16 and 9 instead of chronologically. I was wondering when you would add Firestar and Iceman. No Jessica Drew or Julia Carpenter Spiderwomen? Hmmm - wave 23 and 24 ? Might as well do the whole Marvel Universe. :-)

    1. The whole Marvel Universe? I'd be fine with that.
