When I was like 6, I would create accessories for my Star Wars toys so they could go in the snow outside or in the bathtub. I think the Spider-man line is awesome as far as kids toys go. I wouldn't collect it, but if I had a kid, I'd buy it for them.

Scuba Steve!!

Agreed. Me thinking Scuba Spidey is ridiculous is purely based of of my adult perspective on Spidey in the comics.

This would have never bothered me as a kid who loved his bathtub toy time.

Anyone have "Tub Town" when they were a kid (hears crickets)?

Well, I did. And Scuba Steve Spidey would've fucked that wet little town up!

I'm not old enough for that, but I had some vintage large-scale Fisher Price boats, docks, etc. Later in life I got a demo-scale water raft, and it all pretty much did the same thing. Stormtroopers and Luke Skywalker on tugboats figting my little sister's Little Mermaid bath toy. Good times.
