Jaka didn’t hold back this time around either! Holy smokes! The black on black texturing and crazy print placement alone is great but get a load of all those accessories! All for just $100! That's crazy!

This fig even includes a callback to Jaka/FourStud’s The Spot, going so far to include another leg! Haha! That’s gonna be a really useful piece :P

I also really love the spider-sense element! What a genius concept (that may or may have not been Jin’s idea first… jury is still out on that one 🤔)

I’m also shocked at just how many heads this fig came with! Six different expressions to choose from here (one of them being an internet meme for some reason and not in any way related to the movie). His little toothy smirk is so perfect though and I love it!

Each one of the masked heads possess just as high quality texture work as the rest of the fig and no corners were cut despite the large quantity of heads printed! 

Photographing these were a real pain though! First of all, black plastic figs always attract dust, but these textured heads in particular… oh boy. Any time I’d turn a head or remove a head or just touch them in any way, dust would stick to them like velcro. It’s not like the print was all that raised. Jaka has always printed PAD, but for some reason these heads in particular were just little dust magnets! The texturing design was still really great though, even if I struggled to capture it fully on camera!

The half-mask swimmers cap is the only element that isn’t fully 360° printed with the texture, but did any parts really need to be? No, but were they better for it? Absolutely! :)

Again this fig and all this stuff only cost $100! The production cost on this must have been insanely cheap or something because it feels like I got some of this for free!

I mean come on, just look at those hands! 

They are black plastic with red ink (presumably) printed on the inside, as well as a cheeky little Jaka logo on the top of the wrist that you can only see if you remove them from the arms. Mind you, it’s a logo that is quickly wearing off and I haven’t even twisted the hands that many times 👀

Regardless, it’s extremely impressive at this incredibly small size! I’m sure if I hadn’t checked now, that print would have been worn away in a week and I would have never found it! It was like a secret easter egg just for me :)

Speaking of the red though, that red is RED! 

Like keep in mind this is an entirely black minifig and printing bright colors like reds and whites and blues requires multiple layers of ink. But to have that fig not only require the techniques to do so and have it look this sharp is just incredible! I mean just take a look how clean and pointy the legs of the spider-emblem are!

Truly some killer custom minifig designing to know the limitations and advancements in the printing tech to make a fig like this possible! 

Jaka is truly the MVP of custom minifigs! Wow!
