I assured him that he wouldn't be getting one as when I called for the appointment that's what I was told. Well, my heart was broken as my son probably thought that I lied to him on purpose. As we are walking back to the car, he looks at me with teary eyes so, first thing I remembered is that earlier I had stopped at Target and I bought these cool Marvel figs that were meant to stay MOC. I had no choice...I opened the trunk of the car and said, "Surprise!" Never saw them again at retail ever since...

You made a good call. These Spider-Man toys along with the F4 stuff were my childhood. That and the Super Hero Squad stuff is what got me into Marvel in the first place. The Kraven and Scorpion are still rotting at my local comic store. Kraven was a bitch to find for me. I remember when I went on vacation I stopped at a Target with my Dad and this tall-ass box was there with all of the figures for $5 a pop and I didn't go for it because I was trying to prove to myself that I was becoming a bid kid. Here I am today, regretting that sooo hard. And the funniest part about the scenario is that I'm sitting here today with boxes of figures and I've spent $100's on these guys. I'll never stop collecting xD

I still have most of those figures but they all have missing pieces and a legendary amount of paint chipping.

EDIT: I don't think I emphasized how big that Target box was. It was big as hell! obligatory that's what she said comment...
