The Great Spider-Man Suit Heist

During the filming of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2002 four very expensive Spider-Man suits made specifically for Tobey Maguire went missing. Valued $200,000 in total it led to Sony offering up a massive reward and an international hunt for the culprit. Thanks for watching!

When asked how he got the suits, Gustafson responded: "I had to beat an old lady with a stick to get these."

"The internet's amazing -- and terrifying! I shouldn't have found this!" Laughed so hard at that.

I know we're all mostly here for the jokes because Mr. Sunday Movies is a comedy channel in superhero cosplay, but I would genuinely love to see more videos documenting stuff like this. James is good at writing and narrating them and I didn't know this at all before.

This has Batman, Japanese Spider-Man and American Spider-Man all wrapped into it, this is juicy

Moral of the story: Don't get married. Stay alone and keep your spiderman costume.

Seeing how intricate and expensive those suits are really makes it seem even more believable that a teenager with no money could make one in his bedroom.

What a rollercoaster. I laughed. I cried. Better than Cats!

"No matter how much you like Spider-Man, you don't need four costumes"

Cosplayers: "Hold up..."

This movie series would set the standard for how costume and prop makers would made Spider-Man outfits in today’s cosplay community

Actually, if you'll remember correctly, J. Jonah Jameson bought one of those suits fair and square from a grbage man, but then that menace Spider-Man swung in and stole it.

I liked the detail on the suits! A lovely, well-crafted wee romp through the heady mists of the early 2000s.

[seanmackey]

Yes so glad you included extra details about how the suit was made, that made this so much more impactful. More videos like this too please!

[yjinkscrawler]

I feel like I just listened to a Do Go On mini report... and I LOVED IT. I love wee stories like this, the Howard the Duck Switcheroo, and all that. PLEASE do more if you can.

The info on the suit at the beginning, wasn't too long at all! It was informative and lent context.

I think this is the best video i have seen in the channel so far. The narrative, the suspense, all the information digging... Just fantastic, and the nordVPN sponsor joke was the cherry on top it completely got me

[olivergraystone]

"Is this a kids movie" absolutely killed me 🤣

[DMFroomer]

I love how each suit costs $50, 000 in real life, but Peter Parker was able to make this in his bedroom 😂

[HistoryBluff]

The hard work of Mr. Sunday Movies is truly impressive. NOT referring to this expertly researched video on Spider-Man's suit BUT the metaphorical & literal hoops he's jumping through to AVOID talking about beloved NEW GOBLIN

When you said "Speaking of VPNs" I was so ready to double tap to skip ahead to avoid the ad🤣🤣

When I was a kid back in the early 80's my best friend's grandad was a security guard at the BBC at he often 'acquired' old props and bits of costume from shows like Dr Who, Blake's & etc for his grandson. At the time I think he told us they he'd retrieved them from skips after they'd been dumped by the productions but in hindsight, well who knows....
