A surprising source of enjoyment for me growing up was the 1996 Marvel’s Famous Couples Mary Jane action figure from Spider-Man: The Animated Series by Toybiz. To my surprise, Hasbro brought this version of Mary Jane back to life in Marvel Legends form, 27 years later, in a 2-Pack with Animated Green Goblin. Was this exclusive VHS 2-pack of Spidey icons worth picking up while you still can? The Hasbro Pulse Spider-Man Animated Marvel Legends series is unique in that all figures are part of exclusive multipacks, but eventually end up being sold through other online retailers. The Green Goblin/Mary Jane Watson pack was low on my list of priorities, but I managed to snag the last pack available at EE. Hasbro did a great job updating the Toybiz figure, with accurate colors and a modern, pin-free body. Mary Jane comes with an extra pair of hands as accessories, which is sufficient for the character. As for the Green Goblin figure, it has bright colors and fun accessories, but the Goblin Glider doesn’t fit perfectly. Overall, Hasbro has delivered a strong set with the Mary Jane figure being a standout.
