What would you guys recommend as a birthday gift for a teenage girl who loves Peter Parker / Spider-Man in the current Marvel film series?

Hi Guys
Looking to buy a birthday present for a young teenage cousin who loves the marvel movies in particular she really likes Peter Parker. She’s not particularly into the comics themselves so any inventive recommendations would be great.

Cheers

Danny

You could get her a LEGO set or a Blue-Ray of Spider-Man: No Way Home. There's 30 minutes of the three Peter Parkers. There's also a Spider-Verse artbook which is REALLY REALLY neat. Seeing concepts thrown out and all that.

Or if you want to go really above and beyond give her this:

This is a character that'll be showing up in the new Spider-Verse movie. It's from the 1977 Spider-Man Japanese show (the funny sentai one).

Would be really cool to have on a shelf and it could get her interested in the sequel. You could also take that as an advantage to spend time with her by watching the entire series on YouTube. For real, it's a trip lol.

Hi,

You can always buy a poster of the movie or Tom Holland who plays spiderman. Here is a website for more ideas https://www.nerdmuch.com/spider-man-gifts/

Hope this helps.

Hmmmm...she might not be into the mainstream Spider-Man comics, but perhaps there's one Spidey title she'd actually like:

Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane is a really cute series where MJ is the main character and it focuses more on the highschool drama aspect while also having some Spider-man stuff going on too. It might maybe be a bit dated now, but I enjoyed it back when it ran. I feel like the Spider-man movies are a bit closer to this than to the mainstream comics, honestly!

Other than that... I reckon like... a cool spider-man t-shirt that looks fashionable. ie. it doesn't have a horrible airbrushed drawing of spider-man on it. Something a lady could wear out with some jeans and a nice jacket like this:

Or even this (where you wouldn't even know it was a spider-man shirt without getting the reference):

Teenage girls love novelty socks. You could find her a bunch of Spiderman socks. Hot Topic might have some other Spiderman accessories.

why i did read this as "Peter Pan" ?
I don't know your budget but try searching on Etsy or Redbubble ( i think redbubble is cheaper) , if she doesn't like comics maybe try fining poster with autograph? Temperature changing mug? You can also ( as bonus gift) order some stickers??

Off-topic; never understood why they didn't just make Mary Jane Spider-Man's sidekick or something. It'd be so cool to see them fight side-by-side. I know they have some comics where they do explore this idea, but I never understood why they're afraid enough to make it temporary or AU. It's also weird that they choose Gwen for Miles? I dunno.
