Year Released
2014 - Released as part of the tie-in sets for Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie featuring Jamie Foxx.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While it was in a moderately priced set, it is the only movie-accurate version of this specific character design produced by LEGO.
Head
Trans-light blue head with dark blue and white electricity printing. Features glowing white eyes and a sinister grin. It is transparent, allowing light to pass through the head.
Torso
Medium blue torso with dark blue muscle definition and white/light blue electrical energy surges. Back is printed with continued electrical detailing. Arms are medium blue with white hands.
Legs
Medium blue legs with intricate dark blue and white lightning patterns on the front and hips. No side printing.
Accessories
Two 'Power Blast' lighting bolt pieces (Part 10177) in trans-light blue. These are held in the hands to simulate electrical projection.
Color Scheme
A monochromatic palette of medium blue, dark blue, white, and trans-light blue to represent the character's energy-based physical form.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. Alignment is critical on this figure as the lightning bolts transition from the torso to the legs.
Variants
This is the 'Ultimate' or 'TAS-M 2' variant. A classic green and yellow comic version (sh054) was released in 2013 and a modernized version (sh636) in 2020.
Condition Notes
Watch for scratches on the trans-light blue head, as transparent plastic shows abrasions more easily. Check the hip joints for cracks and the white printing for fading/rubbing.
Estimated Value
Current market value for a used complete figure is approximately $15 - $22 USD; New/Mint condition can reach $30+ USD.
Price (New)
Originally included in set 76014 Spider-Trike vs. Electro, which retailed for $12.99 USD in 2014.
Compatible Sets
76014 Spider-Trike vs. Electro (2014); also appeared in some regional 'Super Heroes' value packs.
Character Background
Based on Max Dillon from The Amazing Spider-Man 2. After falling into a tank of genetically modified electric eels, he becomes a living generator of electricity.
Design Notes
A standout design for 2014 due to the use of a fully transparent head piece, which was relatively rare for character faces at the time.
Similar Minifigures
Classic Electro (sh054), Spider-Man 2014 (sh104), and other 'energy' based figures like Trans-Blue Iron Man or Chitauri.
Collectibility
High for Marvel and Spider-Man completionists. This specific aesthetic has not been revisited, making it a unique era-specific piece.
History
Followed the 2012-2013 wave of comic-book inspired Marvel sets, representing LEGO's first foray into the Sony-verse Spider-Man films.
Interesting Facts
Despite the movie character having a more 'contained' look, the LEGO version uses the classic bolt accessories to ensure he is recognizable as a supervillain.
Display Suggestions
Looks best on a light-up base to take advantage of the transparent head. Display alongside his movie rival, Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man.
Modification Potential
The head is popular for MOCs (My Own Creations) representing ghosts, holograms, or various electrical spirits.
Overall Assessment
A visually striking and highly accurate representation of the film character. It remains an affordable but essential piece for any LEGO Marvel collection.
