If you’re looking for a gift for the Marvel fan in your life, it’s hard to go wrong with Spider-Man. Spidey is one of the most popular superheroes of all time, loved by fans of all ages. We’ve scoured the web to bring you this Spider-Man gift guide.
Best Spider-Man gifts for webheads of all ages
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
Odds are that the Spider-Man you’re thinking of has likely played Spider-Man 2 already. If they haven’t, you’re about to change their entire life. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, exclusively for PlayStation 5, received unanimous praise from critics and fans alike, with some even considering it the best superhero game of all time.
If you’re feeling extra generous this year, the limited edition Spider-Man PlayStation 5 console will go down a treat. You can also purchase the face plates and DualSense controller separately — if you can find them in stock.
Spider-Man Gunnar Glasses
Gunnar Glasses are spectacular glasses for gamers, preventing digital eye strain and headaches thanks to their patented tint. Gunnar has various Spider-Man designs to choose from, available in both children’s and adult’s sizes.
You can even tailor Gunnars to a specific prescription and lens color, ideal for Spider-Kids who may be struggling with wearing their specs for the first time. You can even purchase Stark Industries glasses, inspired by the ones worn by Spider-Man and Iron Man in Marvel Studios movies.
Ukonic Spider-Man Lamp
This 16-inch Spider-Man lamp by Ukonic is something sorely missing from my desk right now. This USB-powered lamp features Spider-Man hanging from a streetlight and has received raving 5-star reviews on Amazon for its quality and brightness.
Daily Bugle LEGO Set
Marvel and Lego go together like people and radioactive spiders. The Daily Bugle Lego set (#76178) is considered one of the best Lego sets of all time, perfectly encapsulating everything Spidey in an amazing display piece
Daily Bugle consists of 3772 pieces and is (at the time of publishing) the biggest Lego Marvel set to date. 25 minifigures are included, including two Spider-Men (Peter and Miles), Spider-Gwen, Spider-Ham, Doctor Octopus, Mysterio, Blade, Green Goblin, Black Cat, and even Daredevil to name a few.
This set is full of comic references, Easter Eggs, and incredible details that made me fall in love at first sight. From the iconic water tower to the Clone Arc reference on the monitor and gorgeous minifigures — Daily Bugle might be the ultimate Spider-Man gift.
Spider-Man Funko Pops
There are more Spider-Man and Marvel Funko Pops than you can shake a web-shooter at. Whether you’re looking for classic Spidey, a Gingerbread version, Spider-Man’s coterie of supervillains, or one of many (many) Spider-People, Funko has your back.
Starting a Funko Pop collection for a loved one can be the gateway to much easier future gifting (or bankruptcy). There are Pops for just about any movie, TV show, musician, or video game you can think of, and each one fits perfectly next to the other.
Spider-Man Web-Shooters
As a kid, I begged my parents for Spider-Man Web-Shooters every Christmas to no avail. Considering the “web fluid” back then, I don’t blame them. Thankfully, the Spider-Man Build-and-Play Web-Shooters are entirely mess-free.
Budding Peter Parkers can build their own Web Shooter with various modules, including suction projectiles, “webs,” light discs, and more. While your little spider won’t be able to ruin the house with Silly Strings, the lights and sounds are a great compromise.
ShopDisney also has a more traditional version with plastic web projectiles that shoot up to 10 feet. There are also Nanotech Web-Shooters at a heftier price, which come with a display stand, light up, play sound effects, and project images onto the wall.
Remote Control Spider-Bot
Spider-Bot, Spider-Bot, does whatever a Spider-Bot can. Which, surprisingly, is quite a lot. ShopDisney’s Interactive Spider-Bot is a remote control toy with 360° movement, lights, sounds, and a light projector. These bots can battle each other and even “blast off” each other’s shields.
My favorite part of the Spider-Bot is its Tactical Upgrades, available separately at ShopDisney and Disney resorts. These optional extras can be equipped to change your bot’s looks, behaviors, and sounds. Just look at his lil’ Mjolnir. Adorable!
Spider-Man Waffle Maker
What’s better than waffles in the morning? Waffles with Spider-Man’s face on them. This Spider-Man Mini Waffle Maker imprints Spidey’s mask onto waffles and is super easy to clean up. It’s also only 5 1/2″ wide, so it won’t take up too much room in your kitchen.
Huffy Spider-Man Battery Powered Motorcycle
Have your incy wincy spider ride around in style with the Spider-Man 6V Motorcycle by Huffy. Powered by a 6-volt battery, this Spider-Cycle can travel up to 2 mph, features automatic headlights, and is fully suitable for outdoor play.
If they made these for adults — and I wasn’t deathly afraid of motorcycles — I’d refuse to take any other method of transport. Reckon this could do the Akira slide?
