Marvel Secret Wars - Black Suit Spider-Man

Yesss!I was finally able to score a Secret Wars black suit Spider-Man!This has been one of the hardest ,of the ones that were released here In the states, for me to track down for a decent price.This one I had as a kid ,but I can't remember where I got him.I want to say CVS Pharmacy.I picked him up boxed with that good for nothing  Styrofoam glider.You couldn't place the figure on the glider from what I can remember and I don't remember ever seeing a glider In the comics.In fact,let me pull up a boxed image on Google to see If I can get a better understanding of It today..hold on...

  Ok so here's that set.As you can see the figure just seems to be sitting there with no kind of cockpit or seat to hold him In place. I'm thinking maybe there was a rubber band or something that held the figure down,not sure,though.That glider never lasted long in my collection,In fact i'm pretty sure I tossed It aside and forgot all about It.All I really wanted was the figure.Below Is the figure I picked up on eBay.It cost me 15 bucks but considering the normal asking price of 20 plus  dollars and the immaculate condition he came In,I'd say I made out like a champ.

    I always loved the Secret Wars Spidey figures. It looks like you made quite the score.

      I really did ,Chris,considering. I've gotten lucky with the SW figures I've found on eBay as far as condition goes.I may have to take a hit with Wolverine and DD,though.

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
