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?
6 legs - like the vintage toy
8 legs - like a true spider

Anatomically correct...8 legs.

Heretical Vintage Purist and Non-Fan Extraordinaire!
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, Skeletor's Skeleton Warriors, Odiphus, Illumina w/Sleetah, Lady Slither, Tuvar & Baddrah 2-pack, "new" characters as designed by Axor (Axel)
I voted six like the vintage. Maybe Eternia has 6-legged spiders....or maybe Skeletor used this guy:

Starburst She-Ra, Hunga the Harpy, The Twiggets, Stridor, Catra’s Cat Form, Kay-La, Skeleteen, Mini Comics Garn, Spinwit, FILMation King Miro
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.
