Spider-Man Tsum Tsum Review

Writer:
I am very critical of Spider-Man media. I love this character more than anyone else in the world and I like to believe that I have a good understanding of what makes this character so cool and how things should be, and that means I'm critical of the many plush toys that have come over the years. Believe it or not, the guy that decided to post every Spider-Man plushie ever made does NOT own every Spider-Man plushie. I own all of 9 Spider-Plushies. Here's the list:

- Spider-Man 3 PlayByPlay plushie.
- Ultimate Marvel Spider-Man Plushie (small)
- Ultimate Marvel Spider-Man (BIG)
- Super Hero Squad Spider-Man Plushie 
- Spider-Man: Homecoming Homemade Suit Plushie by Funko.
- Ty Beanie Babies Spider-Man plushie
- Itsy Bitsy Spider-Man
- Spider-Man Plush Keychain (2002)

And the one we're gonna be reviewing today. But we need background first. During the 2010's, Disney had this little thing called "Tsum Tsums", they were these weird pill shaped toys based on different Disney characters like Mickey, Winnie The Pooh, and other characters. Now, of course, Disney owns Marvel, so OF COURSE they made Marvel Tsum Tsums, there's even a whole comic about it. 

This Tsum Tsum franchise thing was obviously going to have plushies, and of course, they made one for Spider-Man.
This plushie came in 3 sizes, small (fits in the palm of your hand), medium (pillow-ish, aka the one I have) and large (Godzilla-size). Sadly, I believe this version is out of print, though there is a new one that looks completely different. I also got mine used, and it definitely was used alright, because this one doesn't have a very visible web-pattern on camera. 

Spider-Man is in that classic Tsum Tsum shape, and he even has those little feet and arms (not in the picture because he's a fatass). Though, how accurate is this Tsum Tsum to the Spider-Man that I know from the comics and movies? Be very afraid, Tsum Tsum Spidey, you're gonna be criticized very harshly if you're not like the one I know. 

So, Spider-Man in the comic books knows that whole power and responsibility thing, and he knows very well how to be a good superhero. To put this to the test, I staged a robbery with a bunch of actors, one robber and one helpless Mary Jane. When the robber snatched MJ's purse, Spidey immediately swung into action and kicked his ass, gave the purse back and smooched MJ. That's 1 point. Spider-Man has super strength and agility, of course, I launched a bunch of pumpkin bombs towards him, he avoided them all and he even threw one back at me! It's gonna take a while to heal these burn marks but he passed the test. +1 point. It was at this point that I ran out of ideas and just gave him his "Real Spider-Man award". 

In all seriousness though, this plushie has all the right colors for Spider-Man. I mean, that's just what he looks like sometimes! It's wonderful. Spidey's costume color varies from every colorist, but I think the colors on this toy should be the standard. His lenses are apparently supposed to look like the ol' 60's comics but they honestly remind me a lot of John Byrne's artwork from the early 2000's, and I like that artwork a lot.

Plush-wise, this is more of a pillow to use when you fall asleep on your work desk, but I like to hold him close whenever I'm having horrible nightmares about re-reading West Coast Avengers.

Here are testimonials from other Spider-Man critics and even people that are not Spider-Man critics.

"He's an icon" -SpiderMan_Newz
"They turned him into Mr. Krabs pill" -Toilet
"If you cracked him on the counter like an egg he would be full of yolk" -obsidian
"I wanna pat him he’s so cute" -mercabun

That's it. 

Well, this is a plushie, I like him a lot, he's really perfect, he makes my brain feel emotions that don't exist, he's a really good Spider-Man... I'd say 10/10, why wouldn't I give it 10/10? He's the best Spider-Man out there! Go buy it!

Reviewing things I haven't seen!

Writer:
That new Spider-Man TV show just came out, but I don't have Disney+, everyone's talking about it and I don't want to be an outcast, so I'm gonna do the ballsiest thing ever, I'm gonna lose my credibility as a reviewer! I bet the other review sites are gonna be so proud of me... Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, written by Jeff Trammel and directed by Mel Zwyer, a show inspired by the comic book titled "Spider-Man", and also a little bit inspired by the MCU films featuring "Spider-Man", it was announced somewhere around 2022, and the first 2 episodes were released yesterday. Man, I remember when we thought the show was NEVER coming out.  First of all, the intro features a rap song that samples the 1967 Spider-Man theme song. The track is titled "Neighbor Like Me"by the Match Club (featuring Relaye and Melo Makes Music... Okay, Melo, now I know that you make music and not sandwiches). Let's talk about this theme song. First off, ...

The Lowest Point In Modern Spider-Man Comics.

Writer:
One thing I didn't want to admit is that I am not a fan of how the recent Amazing Spider-Man comics have been going lately, it seems that the series is not in good hands and that nothing is going to get better... So, why exactly did I not want to admit this? Well, because I try to be optimistic when it comes to Marvel comics, I really have hope that Amazing Spider-Man is gonna be good again, I have hope that the comics about my favorite character will have good storytelling, so what the fuck is going on? It all started in 2006, with a little comic called Civil War, Spidey had his identity revealed and it led to a lot of chaos in his stories, Aunt May was dying again (this time because of a bullet wound), and no hospital will do anything because apparently Spidey is a criminal or something like that. This led to One More Day, where Peter just cannot let go of Aunt May and in order to save her life, he sells his marriage to Mephisto. This comic was shitty, not the worst, but it was a...

THE LATEST NEWS.

Writer:
 Welp, I'm pissed at the world because the news suck, they're not what I want to hear, they're so inconsiderate... so, I'm gonna make MY OWN news. Plus, I'm gonna have you guys play a little guessing game and whoever guesses correctly is gonna win... A NO-PRIZE! WORLD NEWZZZ: That's right, everyone, WORLD WAR III is about to happen, and there's nothing you can do about it. You're fucked. Get ready to see violence for the next 6 or so years. The US government has finally decided to open Area 51 to the public, everyone can just go there and take a good look at whatever the hell was going on in there... looks like that Area 51 raid was pointless. You can now just  NASA just announced that it looks like Earth is getting another moon (again) soon, and it is... Venus? Wow, that is just insane. I just wonder what's gonna happen to the werewolves now. Many trusted sources are saying that North America might connect to Europe due to continental drift soon, so...
