Diamond and Funko continue their long-running partnership with the announcement of these two new PREVIEWS Exclusive Funko Pop! figures. Inspired by the release of Marvel's 616, the new eight-episode anthology series coming to Disney+, Funko has announced the new PREVIEWS Exclusive Japanese TV Spider-Man Pop! figure (JAN219199, SRP $14.99). Young motorcycle racer Takuya Yamashiro becomes Spider-Man in the 1978 tokusatsu live-action television series when tasked with saving the world by Garia, the last of the aliens from Planet Spider. The PREVIEWS Exclusive Pop! Japanese TV Spider-Man Vinyl Figure features the hero in his Spider-Protector costume with his Spider Bracelet that allows him to not only shoot webbing, but to call on a giant robot known as Leopardon to aid in the fight against the evil Iron Cross Army! This PREVIEWS Excusive Japanese TV Spider-Man Pop! Figure stands about 3 3/4" tall and comes packaged in Funko’s iconic collector-friendly window box. Also available is a glow-in-the-dark chase variant. Chase Figures are packed randomly and cannot be guaranteed with purchase.
