The Return of Spider-Man Day: Hasbro Celebrates with Green Goblin Gear
August 1st marks a day of celebration for Spider-Man fans. It all began with Spider-Man’s debut in Marvel Comics’ Amazing Fantasy #15 back in August 1962. Fast forward to 2024, Hasbro is joining the festivities with a tantalizing treat. They’ve unveiled new Marvel Legends roleplay items inspired by Spider-Man: No Way Home’s cinematic presentation of Norman Osborn’s Green Goblin.
An Electrifying Release
The lineup boasts a lifelike, full-scale Green Goblin helmet. Movie buffs will appreciate its intricate design, capturing every nuance from the film. Meanwhile, the pumpkin bomb replicas come with heart-racing features—think lights, sounds, and everything in between.
Yet, the thrill doesn’t end there. The helmet can be snagged for just $99.99 on Amazon—a noticeable drop from its original $124.99 price tag. It’s unclear how long this all-time low price will last, so eager collectors might want to jump on the deal.
Upcoming Marvel Legends Wave
But Spider-Man Day isn’t just about the Green Goblin. Save some excitement for the upcoming Marvel Legends Nemesis Build-A-Figure wave. Hitting shelves on January 9th, it’ll showcase a medley of characters: Gambit (Age of Apocalypse), Nightcrawler (X-Force), Cyclops (X-Factor), and more. Each figure includes a piece to assemble Nemesis, ensuring excitement for fans craving new additions.
Dive Deeper: Green Goblin’s Arsenal
The Green Goblin helmet channels movie authenticity right to your display. Perfect for adult fans, it’s designed for both role-playing adventures and showpiece pride.
Meanwhile, the electronic pumpkin brings another layer of cinematic charm. As Green Goblin’s explosive tool, the pumpkin offers modes that light up with dazzling FX. One press transforms the pumpkin into a beacon of light, while two trigger sounds of Green Goblin’s menacing laughter. Hold down a button, and a captivating light display unfolds for a full minute.
Elevate Your Marvel Gear Collection
Each roleplay tool isn’t just merchandise; it’s a journey into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Display them proudly or wield them with flair, though additional movie-inspired gear is available separately.
This latest addition to the Marvel Legends lineup is not only for collectors but also for fans ready to immerse themselves in the world of Spider-Man. So as August rolls out, let Spider-Man Day bring out the comic book hero in all of us.
