8 legs - like a true spider
If Spydor was ever made into a MOTUC vehicle, would you prefer it to have 6 legs, just like the vintage toy, or 8 legs, like a true spider?
Anatomically correct...8 legs.

I never had Spydor, but a friend did, and I thought it was super cool but was always confused about the 6 legs. One of the first things you learn about bugs when you're a kid is the difference between insects and spiders.
I miss my Spydor...
I voted 8.
Top MOTUC wants: Sagitar, Great Black Wizard, Fang-or, Skeletor's Skeleton Warriors, Odiphus, Illumina w/Sleetah, Lady Slither, Tuvar & Baddrah 2-pack
I voted six like the vintage. Maybe Eternia has 6-legged spiders....or maybe Skeletor used this guy:

if fine with either
Skeleton-Warriors, Ra-Jar, Spinwit, Rock Golem, General Tartaran, Hawke, Slob-Boar, King Agho, Hunga the Harpy, Sh'gora, Masks of Power Demons, Nocturna, Lizzor, Sagitar, Crimson Fury, Lodar, Vizar, Angast, Negator, King Miro, Melaktha, Crystal-Man, ABC Giants, Stridor, Road Ripper, Land Shark
I voted 8, but the fact of the matter is I missed out on all evil warrior vechicles back in the day and wouldn't know the difference one way or t'other.

PoP Variants are part of the vintage line, too! Starburst She-Ra, Shower Power Catra, and Scratchin' Sound Catra for 2015!!!
gotta vote vintage, plus it'd be cheaper assumedly.
It's Spydor, not a spider.
6 legs.
My #1 most wanted figure in MotUC?

I'm fine with either. Doesn't matter much to me.
My thought is that using 6 legs on the vintage toy helped to ensure a simpler walking mechanism was needed and helped Spydor to operate more smoothly. It's possible 8 legs might have made the toy two clumsy. That being said, if we saw Spydor rereleased, I think 8 legs would be fine and would help the toy to have more support since the newer toy would most likely not need to actually walk.
