    EXACTLY!
    I saw two videos on Mego's Facebook page that claimed that there would be plenty.

    Disney does not care about collectors only sales. Thanks Doc Mego for trying but why were they saying that there was plenty when now they say the sets were under ordered

    My friend and his family went to Disney World two weeks back. No Disney shops on or off property had the Spider-Man set.

    Oh, yeah I did. I was converting to usd, forgot a number. The worst is waiting… it was sent from California to Illinois, and being sent back to the province above Montana, the agony

    I’d gladly pay $75 + shipping; surely you meant $175?

    When i was collecting those Disney store exclusive star wars diecast figues. It would typically be a mad scramble to get them, sellout and an eventual restock a few months later.
    Hoping that'll be the case here as well.

    Well, no-one likes aquatic characters more than I, and he's cool-looking--but I can think of 20 better choices to do first.

    Why did it have to be a Spider-Man Wave? I hope we get better distribution, but Spidey and Hul were my non Trek intros to Mego. I bought a set for $75 +shipping, I don’t want to do this for every wave

    Maybe Disney underestimated the popularity this 4 set of figures would be? Perhaps they learned a lesson from this and will restock them and make the necessary adjustments on the next wave.

    I've seen Paul Clarke state he mentioned to his contact at Disney how disappointed people, including himself, are about this. He is at least bending the ear he knows to make change. The first thing Marty said to me was, "Disney under-ordered this set." He's clearly not wrong.

    The figures are really nice. Particularly Electro looking like he could have existed in 1977 or so after Mego released their (in my opinion) better sculpted Mr. Fantastic, Thor, Conan, etc. But I will admit opening them I felt like the whole experience was somewhat diminished by the distribution woes and lot of my fellow Mego fans being he left in the dust. Hopefully this set will become available online again when the next set comes out, and they'll both have larger quantities available for online sales.

    It was amazing how those prices dropped within months of their release. I was pleased about that since I did the "wait & see" with them.

    I don't mean to make you feel that way at all, and I'm sorry if I did. I thought my post seemed personal, not dismissive.
