Those ToyBiz ones made us go crazy. I remember seeing the Spider-Man set and got the Black suit and classic suit and played with them for hours.

I was about 15 then and the last toys I collected were WCW ToyBiz figures (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9...7f5o1_1280.jpg) which started to die out and Jakks Pacific WWF figs but they changed the toys to a really crappy hard plastic (http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ITZ1KLIppt.../s1600/ttl.JPG) and I hated them so I was looking for something new to collect...I saw the Spidey line and fell in love. It became harder to find them because people were hoarding them and reselling at local Swap meets for at least double but I didn't mind forking over that for certain figures. It was a great series to collect and play with.

I kind of stopped when the Sentinels series began because I started being more into the "I have a girlfriend now...toys are for kids" phase. Which...yeah, really regret because my comic shop always had them and I was one of the customers who always had first dibs on stuff.

When Hasbro took over I was older and didn't care as much for toys altogether. I did look at the Ultimate Iron Man figure (http://i.marvelousnews.com/dbg/gener...scaled_600.jpg) quite a few times and being mesmerized by the shiny paint before pulling the trigger and being sucked back into toys on and off since then.
