I so wanted one of these when I was a kid, but my Mom and I couldn’t ever find it. But I do remember how cool this commercial was back in the day.

Wow… did that ever bring back some memories! I wanted one of these so badly, but was never fortunate enough to get one.
I completely forget I had one of these until I saw this commercial! It was pretty sweet and back then it was actually as close to a decent looking Spider-Man action figure as you could get. Though I do remember the string mechanism eventually tangling up inside and not working anymore.
Wish I still had it somewhere, wonder what it’d be worth now…
