Also, the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon starts in the fall. I would think/hope to see a line based on that since the Spectacular Spider-Man line did well.

I hope they never stop kids's oriented toylines. Toys are MEANT for kids. The whole concept is to have little Billy and Suzie want to collect all of them to play with, lose 'em, and have mommy and daddy buy more. Collectors account for less than 10% of their total business I'd imagine. It always pisses me off when 40 yr old nerds (ESPECIALLY in the transformers boards) whine about a toy or cartoon being too "childish". And these people wonder why they got beat up in highschool and never got laid.... *rolls eyes*...

Anyway... I'd love Hasbro to do more Marvel playsets. ESPECIALLY Spider-Man. A Daily Bugle playset would ROCK. Remember back in the 80's when EVERY toy series has at least two playsets. He-Man, GI-Joe, Ninja Turtles, etc... Hell, even Police Academy had a funhouse police station! C'mon Hasbro... bring the love! I buy my 6 and 3yr old all your toys, but they have nothing to play with them on!
