With Spider-Man: Homecoming official a month away from debuting in theaters, fans everywhere are eager to find merchandise and collectibles for the upcoming Marvel Studios film. Peter Parker himself, Tom Holland, recently came face-to-face with one of the film's action figures, and the end result was pretty fantastic.
While at a press event for Homecoming in Singapore, Holland - who first took on the role in Captain America: Civil War - was captured making a rather surprised expression at the sight of himself in action figure form. You can check out the picture, which was captured by the custom action figure's maker, Jedd Jong, below:

Considering Holland's relationship to the web slinger - aside from portraying him onscreen - his positive reaction to the action figure shouldn't come as a surprise. The actor has been outspoken about how his love for the character has spanned long before he earned the role, including an awkward experience involving a Spider-Man suit at a party.
Since officially stepping in to play Spider-Man, Holland has embraced the role even further, wearing the Homecoming getup - which he likens to the "best iPhone ever" - everywhere from a childrens' hospital visit to a Starbucks.

Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, young Peter Parker (Tom Holland) returns home to live with his Aunt May.

Peter must soon put his powers to the test when the evil Vulture emerges to threaten everything that he holds dear.
