Fanhome Announces The ‘Spider-Man Iron Spider’ Build-Up Model
by Brendan M. Allen
Fanhome 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 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.
The “17-A” suit, as Tony Stark referred to it, was brought into emergency service in Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Infinity War. Compact and sleek, to match Peter Parker’s agile fighting style, the Iron Spider features Iron Man’s technological enhancements: protective armor, sophisticated electronics, and a built-in air supply. It is based on nanotechnology, allowing it to be reconfigured at a moment’s notice.
The Fanhome replica features the Iron Spider’s signature 4 legs and has interchangeable light-up eye pieces that change color from blue to red when in combat mode. The model is constructed from precision metal and ABS components and features a backlit suit for a truly impressive overall appearance.
A special premium offer for the Fanhome Iron Spider allows collectors to accent their replica with a highly detailed light up display base. Inspired by the landscape of Titan during the climactic battle against Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War, the base reproduces the planet’s rugged terrain. The sides of the base are adorned with diagrams of the abandoned ships whose technology was used by Thanos’ army. The base has a diameter of 20 inches and is illuminated to showcase Spider-Man in all his glory. A remote control activates the lighting effects, and the transparent base bears the name of the iconic Superhero.
As the build progresses, subscribers will become experts in all things Spider-Man with a fully illustrated and thoroughly researched magazine that accompanies each month’s package of components. Dive into the saga of Spider-Man from the first day that Peter Parker donned his homemade outfit and used his web-slinger, to his adventures with the greatest Marvel Super- Heroes and villains. Relive his personal crises and memorable battles in the life of a boy from Queens who was destined to become a legend. Discover the most famous writers and artists who have told the Spider-Man story over the decades.
Fanhome Iron Spider builders will also receive a variety of special bonus items at various stages of their subscription that include three officially licensed, full-color 15 ¾” x11 ¾” prints depicting your friendly neighborhood hero in his incredible Iron Spider version, a Spider-Man ceramic mug, a stylish ball cap featuring a Spider-Man patch, and a size large t-shirt featuring a custom Spider-Man logo.
