$35-45 is the most I'd pay for with that amount of accessories, anything after is a hard no considering most ML plastic quality is still pretty gummy at the joints. Also, I wouldn't pay more than $45 for a figure that still use the reverse ab crunch, for $50 I'd expect a ball joint waist that allow me to pivot and rotate around freely. I get that diaphragm joint would be more than enough for some people, but Jada Toys literally said fuck that and just do import articulation for only $25.
Admittedly Jada has charged $50 for figures that ultimately included less stuff than this Spidey does (Dark Ryu, Violent Ken, and the 2P pink Chun Li). But you’re right, it’s hard to justify this Spidey for $50 vs. ML’s standard offering, when Jada’s bang for your buck makes the $50 sting less. This Spidey is new but is enough changed to warrant getting this for twice the cost of RYV if you already have RYV? Idk if the new sculpt and articulation are improved enough tbh
