This is Sandman from the Spiderman comics from Marvel Comics. The Sandman (William Baker, a.k.a. Flint Marko) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. A shapeshifter endowed through an accident with the ability to turn himself into sand, he started out as a recurring adversary to the superhero Spider-Man, but has redeemed himself over time, eventually becoming an antihero. The Sandman has also been an enemy of the Fantastic Four and is a founding member of the supervillain teams the Sinister Six and the Frightful Four.

The character has been adapted into various other media incarnations of Spider-Man, including films, television series, and video games. In live-action, he was portrayed by Thomas Haden Church in Spider-Man 3 (2007) and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). An illusionary creature based on the Sandman appeared in the MCU film Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019). In 2009, the Sandman was ranked as IGN’s 72nd Greatest Comic Book Villain of All Time.

This a request from a friend from north of the border in Canada that has requested arm covers to make it look like Sandman’s hands have turned to a spiked sand ball weapon and a large sand hand.
