He now had no Spider-man to fight him. But hey, Hasbro makes sure there's always Spider-man, Iron Man, and Wolverine on the shelves, which happen to be his favorite characters. Problem solved with a quick trip to the toy store.

New fans, like those being born every day, need to be able to get into the line as well, without going on Ebay. That won't happen if all they ever see are the 1980's Avengers lineup.

Yeah exactly I guess it's fair since the toy lines do have to cater to every area of the market
