In August 1962, Spider-Man made his debut in Marvel Comics’ Amazing Fantasy #15, a moment fans now commemorate annually on August 1st as Spider-Man Day. To celebrate this occasion in 2024, Hasbro is releasing a new line of roleplay gear inspired by the Green Goblin’s appearance in the 2021 film “Spider-Man: No Way Home”. This collection includes an intricately detailed full-scale Green Goblin helmet and replicas of pumpkin bombs, complete with electronic features such as lights and sounds. Unfortunately, the helmet lacks Willem Dafoe’s iconic sound effects, which some fans may find disappointing. However, the gear still looks impressive overall.
