As specified ahead of the event, there were no details on any Spider-Man: No Way Home figures other than the confirmation that 2023 will see a release of the three Spider-men from No Way Home. They did have however have a new MCU Spider-Man figure to reveal, and it is the owner of the backpack teased on the last Livestream. A new 'civilian' Peter Parker from Spider-Man: Homecoming will see Holland's Peter Parker in his school attire and he will come with two heads, alternative hands, a backpack, and a school book. Peter will be joined by the first Ned figure in the MCU line. Ned will also include a backpack and an alternative Spider-Man masked head.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
