- This article is about the Minifigure. For the theme, see Spider-Man (Theme).
Spider-Man is a minifigure based on the character from the Spider-Man films and comics. The minifigure first appeared in Studios, then reappeared in its own theme, Spider-Man, and is scheduled to return in the Super Heroes theme in 2012.
Description
Variations
Over the years, Spider-Man has appeared in various sets, and several different versions of his minifigure have been produced. The ones in the old theme all reflect his appearance in the movie continuity. The Super Heroes variation appears as his Ultimate Spider-Man tv show version
Studios Costume
Spider-Man's first appearance in his classic suit, this variation appeared only in the Studios sets 1376 Spider-Man Action Studio, and 10075 Spider-Man Action Pack. It is nearly identical the the later Spider-Man 1 Costume, except for the addition of a red neck bracket on his back, presumably to attach web to.
Wrestling Costume
This variation was originally intended to appear in two sets, 1375 Wrestling Scene and 4850 Spider-Man's First Chase, however, 1375 was never released. The variation is taken from the sequence in the movie Spider-Man where Peter Parker fights in a wrestling match as "Spider-Man" to raise some money. In this variant he wears a long-sleeved shirt with a complicated spider design printed on it, and blue pants. This costume, unlike any of his other variants, shows Peter Parker's eyes and eyebrows, which are a light brown.
Spider-Man 1 Costume
The variant of Spider-Man used in the Spider-Man 1 subtheme blue pants with red hips with webbing printed on them, a red and blue torso with a web design printed on it in silver, and a spider in black, blue arms, and red hands. His head is red, with silver webbing and eyeslits printed on it.
Spider-Man 2 Costume
For Spider-Man 2, Spidey's costume was updated once again. Now his legs, arms, and a small section on his torso were dark blue, although, like previous versions, he still has a red torso, head, and hips.
As a 4 Plus Figure
When Spider-Man (4 Plus) was released in 2004, it required a special 4+ Figure Spider-Man. In this incarnations, Spider-Man was exactly the same as his Spider-Man 2 version, except for the facts that his hips were dark blue, that he was all one piece, and has differently moulded limbs.
Super Heroes

Spider-Man is the same design as his previous veriants, but changed to repsent a more cartoony version. He has a red head without any head accessories to represent his mask, and it is printed with a web design and large, white eyes. His torso is blue instead of red with red printed on with printing continuing the web design in black rather than silver, his black spider logo is smaller, and printing to show the suit's cut against his body is added. He has blue hips, legs, and arms with red hands. Spider-Man comes with a white rope to represent webbing.
Background
Peter Parker is a successful student at his local High School. Even though he is one of the smartest students there, he was never very popular, and is often bullied. One day his high school went on a field trip to a spider museum. There he is bitten by a radioactive spider. Soon he starts to develop superhuman abilities, including the ability to climb walls and shoot webs from his hands, as well as the proportionate strength of a spider (effectively giving him "super strength"), and the ability to sense things impending danger, which he calls his "spider sense".
Peter's family has never been very rich, and he decides he will use his powers to earn money by entering a wrestling competition. With his winnings, he intended to impress the love of his life, Mary Jane Watson, with a car.
Peter chasing Uncle Ben's killer
His uncle decides to drive him to the match, thinking he is going to a library to study. Once Peter wins the match, he is not paid the money he was promised. As Peter is leaving the building, a criminal runs in and steals all the money. He exits the building the same way Peter does. Peter has the chance to stop him, but since he wants revenge, he lets him get away. Later that night, that same robber kills Peter's Uncle Ben. After this incident, Peter decides that he will use his powers with responsibility, and takes the name of Spider-Man.
Later in his career, Spider-Man goes up against a variety of criminals and super villains including the Green Goblin, who seemingly died when impaled by his own goblin glider, and Doc Ock, a scientist who went mad after four electrical arms were attached to his body. Doc Ock appeared to have been killed when he destroyed his own invention of an artificial sun, falling into the river, but he actually survived. In 6873 Spider-Man's Doc Ock Ambush, Spider-Man is coming to rescue Iron Fist from Doc Ock.

Appearances
Appearance history
The Spider-Man minifigure first appeared in the set 1376 Spider-Man Action Studio in 2002, as part of the Studios theme. The version of Spider-Man wearing his wrestling outfit was set to appear in the set 1375 Wrestling Scene, but it was never released (however, the suit returned later in one of the first sets in the Spider-Man 1 theme, 4850 Spider-Man's First Chase).
In 2003, three sets were released, this time as part of the separate Spider-Man 1 theme, two of which (4851 The Origins and 4852 The Final Showdown) included him in his normal suit, and the other in his wrestling outfit.
In 2004, seven sets were released, this time relating to the second movie, and released under the Spider-Man 2 theme. All of them included Spider-Man in his dark blue variation.
In 2012, Spider-Man will return in 6873 Spider-Man's Doc Ock Ambush in the Super Heroes theme, along with Iron Fist and Doc Ock.
