Is this the thing where it's like $15.00 or so for each figure and they give you the board for free?

Actually, it's a one-shot deal.
$500 and it's yours (well plus S & H :D).

"The Marvel-themed sets will feature intricately designed chess boards and high-quality pewter chess pieces. Each chess board will be designed to capture environments and imagery unique to Marvel characters. The boards will also feature a sculpted lid that lifts off to reveal a storage space for all of the chess pieces. Made of high-quality pewter, these chess pieces will be nearly unbreakable."
Does anyone else see that last statement like sort of a challenge? :o

You were serious? I though you meant something totally different.
My point was not that it was an available Spider-Man product, but rather that here, advertised on the Hype!, was this combination of what were 'stereotypical' nerd endeavors: comic books and chess.

Plust we have them under particular Superheros as well.
BTW, someone told me this weekend that Marvel and DC jointly own a trademark on the word "Superhero". Has anyone ever heard this? Is it true?

I don't know, but I just looked it up, and apparently, they have.
I'm unclear though if it applies to "Superhero" or rather just "Super Hero" and "Super-Hero".
