Year Released
2015. This figure debuted in the set 76036 Carnage's SHIELD Sky Attack during a period when the 'Ultimate Spider-Man' animated series was highly popular and LEGO was expanding its representation of the Spider-Verse.
Rarity
Uncommon. While not a limited convention exclusive, this specific version appeared in only one mid-range set which has been retired for many years, making it harder to find than modern versions.
Head
Standard black minifigure head with mask printing. It features large white eyes with a thin light blue/grey outline and subtle red web-patterning around the perimeter. It is single-sided printing.
Torso
Black torso with a red spider logo on the chest inside a red 'V' shape. The design includes grey muscle highlights and thin red web lines. Arms are solid black, and hands are black.
Legs
Standard legs with printing on the hips and the top portion of the thighs. The print features a red web-like lattice pattern over the black base. The lower half of the legs are plain black.
Accessories
Usually paired with translucent light blue power blast elements or white 'web' string pieces in its original set, though the figure is shown here without accessories.
Color Scheme
A striking Noir-inspired palette of Black and Dark Red, with light grey muscle detailing and light blue/white accents for the eyes.
Printing Details
Pad printing on the head, front of the torso, and the front of the legs/hips. The printing is high quality, typical of the 2015 era, though it lack arm or side-leg printing found in premium modern figures.
Variants
There are several variants: the 2015 original (this one), the 2018 'Spider-Mech' version (sh540) with slightly different torso lines, and the 2021+ versions which have refreshed mask and torso designs.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include 'neck cracking' on the torso and friction wear on the hip joints. The black plastic can show scratches easily under direct light. The print on the toes/legs is prone to chipping if played with heavily.
Estimated Value
Used: $10 - $15 USD; New/Mint: $18 - $25 USD. Prices fluctuate based on the popularity of 'Spider-Verse' cinematic releases.
Price (New)
The original set (76036) retailed for approximately $12.99 USD in 2015, which included two other minifigures and a small vehicle build.
Compatible Sets
76036 Carnage's S.H.I.E.L.D. Sky Attack (2015).
Character Background
Miles Morales is the first Afro-Latino character to take on the mantle of Spider-Man in Marvel Comics' Ultimate Universe. He has since become a global icon through the 'Into the Spider-Verse' films and Insomniac video games.
Design Notes
This figure was significant for being the first wide-release Miles Morales minifigure. It successfully translated the sleek aesthetic of the comics into the classic LEGO proportions using minimalist line work.
Similar Minifigures
sh540 Miles Morales (2018), sh697 Miles Morales (2021), sh724 Miles Morales (Hoodie version), and classic sh038 Spider-Man.
Collectibility
Moderate to High. Collectors often seek the 'first' version of a major character. Demand usually spikes whenever a new Spider-Verse movie or game is released.
History
Following a very rare 2012 SDCC exclusive, this was the first time most fans could own a LEGO Miles Morales. It represents the early wave of Marvel diversification in LEGO's product line.
Interesting Facts
The web pattern on the legs of this specific figure is often mistaken by casual buyers for the 2018 version, but the 2015 sh190 has more prominent grey muscle lines on the torso.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on a transparent posing stand to simulate web-swinging. It looks excellent alongside other Spider-Verse variants like Spider-Gwen or Peter Parker.
Modification Potential
Excellent for purist customs. The head and torso are compatible with the' hoodie' piece from later Miles versions to create a movie-accurate look from 'Into the Spider-Verse'.
Overall Assessment
A foundational piece for any Marvel collector. While newer versions offer more detail, this 2015 original remains a classic 'Blue Chip' minifigure for Spider-Man enthusiasts.
