I think I liked the rest of the collection more than you did, but I agree with you about that color. And also about the red!

I was looking forward to its release before I saw it. OMG, it's THE AMAZING SPIDERMAN collection. I'm in my 40's and I squealed. I have so many similar colors with similar finishes to the collection. Just Spotted the Lizard reminded me of OPI's At Your Quebec & Call. I decided to buy it anyway after seeing your swatches. The wearability is amazing. I cooked,cleaned, and soaked my hands in a bleach/water solution. I did not use a base coat nor a top coat. I did not get any chips and the shine was still very visible. JSTL also looks very elegant with a layer of OPI's Spark de Triomphe on top.roses12212https://www.blogger.com/profile/12227872895841626232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-26955918100459063622012-05-16T13:00:00.780-05:002012-05-16T13:00:00.780-05:00I have found reasoning behind the color selection!...I have found reasoning behind the color selection! The Amazing Spider-Man used to be Amazing (Adult) Fantasy comic book where Spiderman first appeared and he wore a paper bag over his head and ORANGE pants. The series then continued as the Amazing Spider-Man. The pink I'm guessing is because Gwen was Peter's first love. Remember this movie is going back to the High School Days it's not Spiderman 4.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05788280194762224328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-18844535587866696902012-05-14T19:05:30.989-05:002012-05-14T19:05:30.989-05:00I was kinda disappointed in the collection too, bu...I was kinda disappointed in the collection too, but when I went to pick up some OPI polishes yesterday, I looked at the collection in person.

I am glad to hear that 'Lizard' is finally a true dupe & that it has one of the good formulas that we all know OPI CAN produce. I never was a fan of the Chanel Peridot formula - but then I am not a Chanel polish fan for a lot of reasons - namely the $$$ now and the hype behind this or these shades released that pulls me in at times. They never are my favs once I get them in hand! I think mostly because I have to mail order vs. see/play with a counter one first. I should find out if Nordstrom takes them back via mail returns like they do everything else?beachgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06465511737750316429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-5469320363365718982012-05-04T16:35:20.189-05:002012-05-04T16:35:20.189-05:00WOW!

I wonder if OPI will make a new batch and keep this going like they did with the Katy Perry collection in Jan 11 when that sold out in ~24 hrs & they could not fill all the vendor orders that were originally promised I was told. That really sort of blew the rarity of that collection apart. No one can get rid of it all - esp the horrible Black Shatter! Seems the only one that still has interest is Teen Age Dreams (the pink one). Just glad I got my bottle of Not Like In the Movies out of the first batch before they changed (er goofed) & came up with a totally different shade for that one in later runs.beachgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06465511737750316429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-77564484696307847982012-05-04T11:47:09.254-05:002012-05-04T11:47:09.254-05:00Is call me gwen ever similar to cg life preserver?...Is call me gwen ever similar to cg life preserver?miChellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03040305284407904961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-55711232697851392202012-04-30T07:43:22.037-05:002012-04-30T07:43:22.037-05:00I REALLY like Number One Nemesis, Call Me Gwen, My...I REALLY like Number One Nemesis, Call Me Gwen, My Boyfriend Scales Walls and the shatter, but overall I feel like I wouldn't have the patience to try it out. I'd like to see it as a regular color, though and I think I felt that way about the Super Bass shatter as well (but I think that that was mostly due to my shameful love of the song). I'm a little iffy on the Gwen color.<br /><br />I was really excited to hear they were doing a superhero collection and I think the blue is kind of faithful to his suit, but I don't like the look of it on the nail. And like everyone else is wondering, WHERE IS THE RED?? That seems impossible. Hopefully I can pick up the few that I do enjoy though!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03968325804819183259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-59980078790172136362012-04-23T16:05:50.435-05:002012-04-23T16:05:50.435-05:00Me too - cannot believe they added another Shatter...Me too - cannot believe they added another Shatter to the OPI collections.

Why yet another Shatter? We are done with all that are we not? (however I do see how it kind of fits into this collection - just won't see me buying it). The blue here we have seen before and there are tons of better ones than this out there now with that blue WOW factor. The orange - come on, it's been done too. Some might like the Peridot kind of dupe (but I have Peridot and won't buy this OPI one). And like you and others have said...no red here? That's like doing a Wonder Woman collection and not having a red in it! Really disappointed with this collection and probably won't buy a one of them which is RARE for me in an OPI collection.beachgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06465511737750316429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-29107087360228299222012-04-23T10:57:16.011-05:002012-04-23T10:57:16.011-05:00thanks for the swatches!! why is the best color a ...thanks for the swatches!! why is the best color a crackle.. i'm over it!!yummy411https://www.blogger.com/profile/12969641019473417770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-958645516304866002012-04-18T15:47:41.077-05:002012-04-18T15:47:41.077-05:00I couldn't believe there wasn't a red in t...I couldn't believe there wasn't a red in this collection either!!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00247681150999796653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-33532857101991044892012-04-17T20:04:30.447-05:002012-04-17T20:04:30.447-05:00I love your swatches and your blog.

I have to agree with most of the comments, this collection isn't really spiderman at all- why is there an orange, pink and white? The pink isnt that bad but then again its not that great. As for the white and orange..no. just no.

When i found out about this collection i was estatic, I dont care for the rest of the colors but when i saw that Chanel dupe I knew i had to keep my eyes open for this collection. So im definitely getting the lizard and maybe nemesis. There have been alot of companies coming out with a chanel dupe but ill finally be able to get this in salons or ulta. No ordering for me!<br /><br />PS. anyone really into seeing the new spiderman movie? I might then again i prefer Tobie Miguire.

It's just so sad that this collection COULD have been amazing... it's Spiderman! But instead it's mostly a let down.

Ever since the press release I've been saying "Where's the red? It's Spider-man, shouldn't there be a red?". I think they really could've done something great here with a variety of comic/movie inspired colors. I mean, I know The Lizard is this movie's villain but 3 colors inspired by him is too much. And pink? What? I may buy one or 2 of these shades but the lifelong Spider-man comic book reader in me wishes I loved them all.Domhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02855670589748181101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-88856859362883524042012-04-16T05:35:42.066-05:002012-04-16T05:35:42.066-05:00I would buy every single one of those! :) OPI shou...I would buy every single one of those! :) OPI should hire you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049173977991321788.post-36371376232144516212012-04-16T05:34:06.943-05:002012-04-16T05:34:06.943-05:00Thanks for this overview, now I know I don't n...Thanks for this overview, now I know I don't need any of these.
