I think it's an ongoing problem with Spider-Man waves. About one in four waves gets good distribution, every other year. sadly that means that the three waves in between are rare because Hasbro/retail has ordered the shitload out of the other case. Think about it. short of the Abomination Wave, which was a rarity being a 3rd wave for a movie and likely just a bit...MUCH...for one brand in a year...what's been the hardest to find waves as a whole EVERY year? Spider-Man waves. Sandman wave certainly had its problems but got moderate distribution. Space Venom wave was practically MIA. Homecoming seemed a bit sparse as well but not completely absent. Now Lizard wave. Just...a damn mess. I get they want to promote their #1 character but they need to come up with some other way to ensure that retail will actually get the product. Otherwise why bother making it. Sorry. Rant over.

edit; @ DTL: AHAHAHAHAHA (to the hidden message, thank you for the honestly! LOL) To the main comment I don't "do" customs...though I've been meaning to. but because I suck at it. All I would be doing on that forum is boohooing the fact that I don't have the talent to make the figures I want, not actually contributing anything positive towards the discussion. If it doesn't fit with a headswap and easy repaint it's beyond my capabilities.
