Marvel Legends Into the Spider-Verse Jessica Drew
An alternate Jessica Drew from Earth-332, she is a leading member of the Spider Society and is a mentor to Gwen Stacy from Earth-65.
The character is meant to be an amalgam of the original Earth-616 Jessica (who was pregnant in the comics at the time) and the Ultimates Universe (Earth-1610) Jessica, who is able to shoot webbing from her fingertips, along with the concept of her now being African American.
It’s super disappointing that the set offers nothing but an extra pair of hands for this figure. Sigh…
Her outfit comes with this pouch. I wonder what she carries around?
If it wasn’t for the web designs on her sleeves, I don’t think anyone would look at her and think “Spider-woman”. The design is just way too far out there IMHO.
Do note that this figure is VERY hard to pose, mainly due to her large hairdo and big pregnant belly.
Her somewhat tiny feet are not helping her balance out, either.
Also, I can’t quite put my finger on it, but her face sculpt is also a bit off from the animation models. Lips too pouty, maybe?
Overall, kinda meh. I wish the set came with more than just a pair of extra hands. I think it’s safe to say this figure is easily the worst selling of the wave, as she’s still around most shops for a long while now, even at clearance prices.
I eventually decided to grab her as she is one of the core characters of the Spider-verse saga sequels.
I wonder if Hasbro will re-release her with her motorcycle when the next movie hits? There’s also word of her getting her own movie or something after the next Spider-verse movie. I hope Hasbro improves her face sculpt.
