Rarity
Common to Uncommon. While currently available, it is exclusive to a mid-priced set within the 2024 wave, making it more desirable than mass-market generic Spider-Man figures.
Head
Red head with white mask eye printing outlined in black. Features stylized spider-web printing and a unique Flat Silver mohawk attachment (Part 11257) that fits over the stud.
Torso
Black vest (biker jacket style) over a blue shredded shirt. Design includes silver studs, a red anarchist-style circle 'O' logo on the left chest, and red arms with intricate black cuff printing.
Legs
Dual-molded red and black legs. Features heavy printing including blue straps/buckles, white doodle-style graffiti patterns (stars and suns), and black belt detailing.
Accessories
Includes a white electric guitar with black spider-web printing and a red neck. The guitar is a highly specific accessory for this character's 'Punk' persona.
Color Scheme
A striking mix of Bright Red, Blue, and Black, accented with Flat Silver (spikes) and White (graffiti/eyes). This mirrors the chaotic aesthetic of the film.
Printing Details
High-fidelity pad printing. Notable for 360-degree coverage on the arms and legs, plus detailed chest printing that captures the 'collaged' look of the movie character.
Variants
This is currently the only official version of Hobie Brown from 'Across the Spider-Verse'. Previous 'Spider-Punk' comic versions (sh540) lacked the specialized mohawk and mohawk-specific head printing.
Condition Notes
The mohawk piece is prone to getting lost. Check for scratches on the torso printing as the black ink can show wear easily. Arm printing should be inspected for alignment.
Estimated Value
$5.00 - $8.00 USD for used/complete; $10.00 - $12.00 USD for new/unassembled. Value is stable due to set current availability.

Character Background
Hobie Brown is a British, anarchist Spider-Man from Earth-138. He plays a pivotal role in 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' as a mentor to Miles Morales, known for his rebellion against authority.
Design Notes
LEGO designers successfully translated the film's 2D-textured, 'shrapnel' art style into a 3D minifigure using dense graffiti-style printing on the legs and torso.

Collectibility
High. Because of the character's breakout popularity in the 'Spider-Verse' film, this is a top-tier figure for movie fans and Marvel collectors.
History
First debuted in January 2024. Represents an evolution in Spider-Variant minifigures, moving away from simple color swaps toward unique molds (mohawk) and high-detail leg printing.
Interesting Facts
The 'O' on the chest vest is a reference to the Anarchy symbol, modified to fit LEGO's branding guidelines while maintaining the punk aesthetic.
Display Suggestions
Display on a clear stand in a mid-air 'shredding' pose with the guitar. Looks best next to Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales.
Modification Potential
Excellent for customizers. The legs and arms are highly sought after for creating custom punk-rock characters or other Spider-Man variants.
Overall Assessment
10/10 for character accuracy. The inclusion of the mohawk and the high-detail graffiti printing makes this one of the best Marvel minifigures released in 2024. A must-buy for Spider-Verse fans.
