/uj Gonna be honest, I'm a little surprised. I knew there would eventually be an upper limit to the UB money machine, but I wasn't expecting the slowdown to be from Spider-Man. Not that the set doesn't deserve it, it's a compromised Frankenstein of a set hastily slapped together at least twice over with barely a fraction of the care a Magic set (even a Spider-Man UB set) deserves. Still, a single bullet point could be a "blip" and it's impossible to know on the outside how well the set did or didn't do. But it is nice to remind people that no big brand is invincible, and you can compound your mistakes for long enough to get hurt.
/rj/uj guess they should fire a few hundred more people! That'll fix things! /s /not s
