Last week I was completely surprised to receive a package from Havinger Studios containing a 1/12th figure and I couldn’t wait to do a review. The figure was the Veteris Rapax from the Savage Crucible line.

Posted on 2025/01/14 by James

Fanhome, the leader in subscription-based collections and models, expands its catalog of officially licensed Marvel products with the release of the Iron Spider build-up model. The new subscription recreates the custom suit created by Tony Stark to deliver a much more sophisticated and powerful version of Peter Parker’s original Spider-Man outfit.

The Fanhome Iron Spider stands 90cm (nearly 3 feet) tall when built. Resplendent in vivid red and blue, like Spider-Man’s regular costume, but with 4 powered spider legs affixed to the back of the suit and rendered with gold details that echo Iron Man’s trademark colors, the Iron Spider has an immediately recognizable and iconic look. The model is offered as a stunningly detailed build-up replica that will become the centerpiece of any Marvel fan’s personal collection. Each month’s package of components to construct the replica also is accompanied by a richly illustrated magazine examining the action-packed world of Spider-Man.
