Perhaps I should've phrased my post differently. I said bigger, not taller. I know about the height of the two figures. They're both on display on my shelf and they're two of my favorite Retro figures. I meant that Electro is bigger in terms of muscles and how they're more sculpted than Sandman's, given the differences of the two body molds. Granted, I know Sandman is just a guy in a shirt and pants and I always this was more of a Steve Ditko version of Sandman in terms of his size. I just think it's weird that Electro is the bigger/wider/more muscular looking of the two, is all. Sorry for the confusion.

That said, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed we'll get another, FULL wave of Spider-Man figures with the Retro packaging. I wouldn't mind seeing figures like Beetle and Jack O'Lantern getting the Retro Toy Biz packaging, since both were in the SNES and Sega "Spider-Man: The Animated Series" video game, but I really, REALLY want to see Retro figures of Chameleon, Vulture, and a bendy wire tentacles Doc Ock sooner than later. Since they're three of Spider-Man's most popular and oldest foes, I'm surprised they haven't gotten the Retro treatment already.
