Not the best restoration/patch job I've ever seen (it's also been drained and stuffed with cotton). But if anyone wants this toy cheap, this is probally the auction for you.

I saw that auction & was wondering: is the draining & stuffing with cotton procedure common with these toys? Is it recommended?

I had good luck with mine, he was actually bonded to a drawer before this so I'm happy to have him up and around.

Which is a lot better than what went on with my Ensueno Supes (Oi Vey!)

It seems these elastic spidey's pop up 1 per month. As a Spidey collector I have never had any interest in this piece...sad but true.

Man, that's one hurtin' Spidey.

How did it get bonded to your drawer? And what happened to the Supes?

I would love to hear these stories. Thru the years, I've heard a million of "the stretch horror stories" and they always make me laugh.:smiley1:
