These are aimed at collectors. That said...for the price, I wish Hasbro would have done a better job
Maybe I've just become so used to expecting much more detail from something aimed at the older crowd. It's like how Mattel calls a lot of their stuff "adult collector" yet the product itself is far from the level of actual collectibles companies. Hasbro and Mattel can say it's an adult collector style figure but the actual quality of the toy will always be tailored to be approachable and playable for kids because that's just how they do things. I guess the game plan on these was market them for adults but make them playable enough for kids too. If they were going for a strictly collectible figure then it wouldn't still need to be accessible to kids 4 and up, they could've moved to 13+ and added more collector themed aspects.

Yeah at this price I'd expect a hell of a lot more. If it's gonna be a little over twice as much for essentially a blimp up of the 6" figure with some new articulation then it should come with more accessories or far better paint applications than this. They couldn't include the slice of pizza from the 6" one? Or how about a camera or something Daily Bugle oriented? Not even a web piece for those web-shooting hands? Unless Spider-Man is someone's absolute favorite hero of all time then $50 for this seems too much when the 6" one is equally good and has pizza.
