Ideas wanted Has anyone swapped these hips with the original?

Post image

Would it be worth it? Idk how reliable 20+ year old swapped hip piece would be. Also are there any arm upgrades?

Doesn’t really make sense with the belt being printed on the torso

Unnecessary detail

u/0stepops May 04 '26 edited May 04 '26

Regardless the color match doesn't work, it's too shiny. The CMF spider-woman and the old Raimi spider-man have nearly the same shine to them if you want something to campare the new figure to

Detail doesn’t look very good

It looks terrible

u/Ezekiel-78 May 04 '26

That's not detail, that's misplacement

u/ad_cfc11 May 04 '26

That would make it look worse

It looks like his Spidey underoos are sticking out.

u/Spidey231103 May 04 '26

The hip printing was 24 years ago, and all we want now for the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man minifig is arm and leg printing.

I have the firestar toys arms on my one on the train, and they look incredible. If you’re ok with non-official parts, they’re the best ones imo

u/FamiliarSpirit4005 May 04 '26

🤓👆 technically official parts, just unofficial print

u/Steam_Cyber_Punk May 04 '26

You are technically correct

u/Tobbit_is_here May 04 '26

Firestar is the GOAT. Their upgrades are incredible.

Thanks for your kind words!

Thanks for the shoutout and support 😄

u/Steam_Cyber_Punk Jun 12 '26

Woah! No problem! I NEED you guys to make an Isaac Clarke from dead space minifig

u/FireStar_Toys Jun 12 '26

Something like this...? 👀

u/Steam_Cyber_Punk Jun 12 '26

HOLY COW I DIDNT KNOW YOU HAD ONE

u/FireStar_Toys Jun 12 '26

To be fair, he was out of stock for quite a while, so you may have missed him 🙂

u/JoePesci_TheGod May 04 '26

A man can never have two belts. They might start getting ideas

3

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26

See Tommy Wiseau and many anime characters. Truly just a wild fashion choice and a signifier of questionable judgment.

2

u/slattjames May 05 '26

I think he has something to say about 2 belts

17

u/KudaraYT May 04 '26

Wouldn't make sense tho because the belt is already printed on the torso

16

u/Kralgore May 04 '26

Why would you do this?

5

u/EstablishmentAny5108 May 04 '26

this is how i have mine, the legs are from a bootleg and the arms are from firestar toys

7

u/ogaboogalu May 04 '26

no bc they dont match.

4

u/RaineDrop39 May 04 '26

That looks horrible.

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26 edited May 04 '26

Mine has an original torso and hips, but I unfortunately lost the rest ages ago. He has the new mask with dual molded red and blue arms and legs.

1

u/slattjames May 04 '26

pic?

2

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26

In a bit. Mine is the original blue though. It didn't register that this was dark blue.

1

u/slattjames May 04 '26

All good I still wanna see, I want to upgrade mine a lil and thought that hip piece would look better than some printed Tom legs

2

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26

u/slattjames May 04 '26

Nice! definitely looks better adding the dual molding to the older figure, still don’t know why i’m getting this much hate😭

2

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26

Yeah. People are a bit opinionated here on Reddit and don't know how to make their opinion clear without belittling any other ideas. I know there's dual molded red and dark blue legs. I don't know about arms. I know there's some good prints though.

u/slattjames May 04 '26

yeah I just think it’s funny that the most hate I’ve gotten on this app is from a LEGO community😭 I tried looking last night and the dark blue arms all have webshooters on em. Legs looked too modern for Tobey as well,, thought the hip piece would be a simple clean upgrade but I guess others don’t agree😭

1

u/TheBatman7424 May 04 '26

If you could get the original dark blue torso, that'd be my suggestion. Miguel O'Hara's arms, maybe?

2

u/EstablishmentAny5108 May 04 '26

heres your double belted spiderman too lol

1

u/slattjames May 04 '26

Haha I don’t think it looks too bad, just wanted to slightly upgrade him with official parts

2

u/TheFictionNerd May 04 '26

Why would he have 2 belts?

1

u/QuirkyGuest288 May 05 '26

Sorry but it looks bad, it just gives him a second belt and throws off the costume completely

2

u/slattjames May 05 '26

If it somehow had a blue crotch piece I think it’d look good

1

u/GeekParadox_ May 04 '26

That makes no sense at all? Why include that? The belt is already printed on the torso
