The Full Take
The Spider-Man and Doc Ock mech battle concept is exactly the kind of idea that works on every level for the price. At $20 you're getting two complete buildable figures with their own distinct silhouettes — Spidey's web-slingers versus Ock's mechanical tentacles is a natural visual contrast that holds up on a shelf or a desk. The minifig situation is a genuine highlight: both figures are sharp, and the character pairing makes sense for the set's premise. Where it falls short is depth — 312 pieces spread across two mechs means neither is especially complex, and the overall parts haul won't excite anyone hunting interesting elements. For the value, though, this is a tough deal to argue with.
