Not to say that you missed one when you were looking, they might have sold out. But the Spidey Classics line kept these things out their non stop. Now any other character, and you have an argument. Even Wolverine has had a year when you didn't get a classic colors Wolvie, and Iron Man has had years where you didn't get a normal sized classic red and gold. But the big three get pretty well represented.

I never said there wasn't a classic costume or black costume on the shelf... what I said was there was nothing but Spider-Man on the shelf. Hydroshooter Spider-man in a wetsuit. Hang-gliding Spider-Man with silly goggles and a backpack. Zip-Line Spider-Man with another gimmick. No Venom. No Carnage. No Doc Ock. No Green Goblin. Nothing but Spider-Man. Once I even went to TRU as they were stocking the figures, and a freshly opened box was... you guessed it... nothing but Spider-Mans.

My point is there doesn't need to be 30 different Spider-Man toys. Three at most. Instead of the 30 version of Spider-Man, use that energy and money to make Venom, Carnage, Doc Ock, Black Cat, JJ, etc.
