Same thing has happened to me. I had a vivid green spider against orange armor. Its easy to see that it isn't there any longer. The lower legs are still there, they are attached to the chest, but the body and upper legs are gone.
No matter what I try I can't get my high collar, chestplate, or spider back. I think I still had all of this stuff during issue 16 release but I'm not sure. One of the many halloween updates may have broken it.

I think someone posted about this in the general discussion... be sure to bug it, as I think it IS a bug. I started a Wolf Spider a month or so back, and he had the spider legs or whatever on his shoulder, but I haven't played him for a couple weeks now.

That spider you have attached to your back on your widow character. Well I seem to remember having this on my female wolfspider as well but now its gone. I keep wanting to think that I ran into this bug before but I may not have. If I attempt to create another female wolfspider its not there during character creation either.
Anyone else having this issue or is it not supposed to be there at all? Because I thought I remembered having it. I notice that male wolfspiders, arbiters and quartermasters still have theirs.
edit: I have also noticed that arachnos style high collar is no longer available to females and the armored chest plating is missing with this as well.
