Beast Kingdom recently took a different approach to creating a Spider-Man action figure when the brand decided it would shrink the notorious web-shooting hero to the body of a baby. This adorable figurine showcases the infamous Spider-Man like you've never seen him before.

Measuring in at only six inches tall, this tiny action figure really is a [miniature version](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultraman-figure) of the cinematic hero seen in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 motion picture complete with the body of a baby and an over-sized head. Despite his small size, this Spider-Man action figure still adorns the traditional blue and red Spider-Man suit with a red mask. The figurine also comes with [interchangeable hands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-toys-2) and shooting white web clip-in extensions.
