Spidey came to us through my parents. He had originally been my nephews crabs, but moved in with my parents with their crabs. By the time we took them, Spidey and Sam were the only ones left. I'm pretty sure that Spidey had ongoing issues with stress as he had lost a few limbs by the time we got him.
Shortly after we took him in, he dropped another limb and was down to three big legs, none of them a pincher. :(
My son took to him, as he had the Spider-Man shell, regardless of how you may or may not feel about painted shells.
Slugger has become Spidey II, much to my son's delight who insisted that Spidey had not died, but was just sad because the other crabs wouldn't play with him.
Since then, he has switched out of the Spidey shell and is now named Ben with my son's blessing. So we've retired Spidey's shell.
