@CCRunner:
No, you need the Play Set piece to have the OPTION of buying the Spider-Man Play Set toys in the Toy Store. So, if you get the Starter Pack, you can only buy the toys from the Avengers Play Set in the Toy Store, since that's the only Play Set included.
The only Play Set toys you can buy without having the Play Set piece are the ones from 1.0. Having the piece unlocks them immediately, but if you don't have it, you can just buy them with your sparks.
I'm sorry if the previous post confused you. If you have any further questions, let me know!
