The web mask slips over most figures’ heads, simulating Spidey having webbed someone’s face shut. The web base is large enough that you can place another figure against it to simulate them being webbed against a wall or object, though it works less successfully than the web mask in my opinion. The chief concern when it comes to paint on a Spider-Man figure is always going to be the web pattern. The painted sections are done impressively with virtually no slop. Everything blends cleanly, as mentioned earlier, with the printed areas of his costume. There is a small bit of red that made it onto one of Spidey’s eyes, but that’s likely a problem limited to mine.
The cape also has a wire at the bottom to adjust it for action poses! However, due to the nature of the material for the suit, it is recommended not to display the figure in the same action pose for a long period of time. Indeed, when the figure was released, it was also announced that it included a Jake Gyllenhaal headsculpt! This figure also comes with interchangeable hands, illusion effects, smoke effects, and a display base. Please allow additional time if international delivery is subject to customs processing. I’ve had it for a year now, and I absolutely love it.

Otherwise, most of Spidey’s outfit is fabric, so there isn’t much to discuss. The high gloves running up to his elbow are done very well, as are the boots and feet with their raised web pattern. There are plenty of hands that come with the figure, all sculpted to work with Spidey’s various web accessories or to simulate web-shooting. There’s some definite improvement on these masked sculpts due to Mezco changing how they’ve attached the eyes. The previous Homecoming figure had the eyes glued on as separate pieces, which caused plenty of QC issues for many collectors. This new release has them sculpted with the head as one piece, which also looks much better.
Masterfully crafted based on Mysterio’s appearance in the movie. A new Peter Parker headsculpt, 11 interchangeable hands, 2 web-shooters, 3 web-wings, 6 web effects, and Peter Parker’s phone. Also included are 5 pairs of Spider eyes, E.D.I.T.H. glasses, a drone, and a basic stand.

The arms have little to no restriction due to the outfit, leaving the shoulders, elbows, biceps and wrists to work well together. There’s a cut at the waist and chest, which allows for plenty of torso movement, and the neck joint allows for plenty of lean and tilt of the head. The ankle rockers are great, as they should be for this character. The hips, knees and thighs are all solidly articulated, as well. It should also be noted that the whites of Spidey’s eyes are now solid white, without the mesh look that previous iterations had, which is accurate to the film.
The screen-printing on the vinyl applications also looks heads and tails better than the previous entry. The red is vibrant and the web-lines are defined and sharp. I would love to see Mezco take another stab at their classic comic book Spider-Man, which had quite dull coloring and patterns on his costume. It’s extremely easy to take one look at this new Upgraded Suit and simply see the Tech Suit from the first movie and figure with the blue sections now colored black.

Beginning with those black sections, they’re actually, along with being a different color, a different texture, and design than the Homecoming figure. Where that earlier release had some sort of tech lines running down his legs and his sides, the Upgraded has what appear to be netting or webbing mixed with skewed horizontal lines. There’s something more organic-feeling to this version, which I like. The black trim here is different, less narrow and merging with the solid black sections more completely.
Interest will be charged to your account from the purchase date if the balance is not paid in full within 6 months. Sellers declare the item's customs value and must comply with customs declaration laws. My figure arrived with a couple small issues, and Sideshow was amazingly quick in how they fixed the issues.
The Spider-Man – Far From Home – Upgraded Suit Figure is a homerun. Built on the already impressive Homecoming body and its amazing articulation, Mezco has managed to only improve with this release. More vibrant colors, better tailoring and brand-new accessories make this Spidey a serious contender for “Only 1/12 Spider-Man Action Figure You Will Ever Need”. Two new fun inclusions are the web base and the web mask, which allow for some cool display options.
Hot Toys has once again crafted an incredible headsculpt! No matter the angle, you can definitely recognize him.
I highly recommend this 1/6 scale collectible if you are looking for a version of Spidey that isn't traditional or one that allows for more posing options. International shipment of items may be subject to customs processing and additional charges. The unmasked Peter Parker head is, sadly, just a reused piece from Mezco’s other MCU Spider-Man figure, the Homemade Suit version. It would have been nice to get a new sculpt, but I suppose it’s nice for people who maybe didn’t get either of the two previous releases to have a chance at it. The head isn’t the strongest likeness to actor Tom Holland, though at certain angles it works okay. However, putting it next to other takes on the likeness such as the custom Flashback Studio head make it pretty apparent that it’s missed the mark overall.
Even the soles of Spidey’s shoes are solid black this time around, with a new tread design to boot . The box for the Spider-Man Far From Home figures have some of the best designs. Each features Mysterio’s fishbowl at the front and inside a promotional drawing of the character. That part can be removed to see the full promotional drawing and reveal a window box.
