Snake Eyes doing as well as Ironman 2 is a good thing actually.
IM2 is considered a successful line that it stayed shipping product all the way until IM3, Out-performing Avengers, and Avengers Assemble both as well as Thor and Captain America. Market statistics-wise it was extremely successful, with numbers that far exceed anyone's expectations on sales data.

The reason IM3 changed the toy dynamic was because Retailers wanted the next big thing, and didn't want IM2 in new packaging. That had more to do with the way blockbuster movie lines work, but for a movie toyline to keep shipping that long after the movie's theater run and home media release is typically unheard of. IM2 is considered one of the bigger successes of the 1:18th figure era runs.
