It was like this: Average build in street clothes, yet with the outfit he is twice as built. They didn't think Toby could pull off the costume look. They were quickly silenced with the "sit the fuck down, shut the fuck up" backhand.
If it wasn't that, it was organic webbing (which makes him getting with Mary Jane twice as hard to believe. I didn't have a nail on my thumb for a month, and all my female friends told me they would rather see my penis. THAT'S bad. But then Parker says 'Hey look, I have holes near my wrists, but unlike Jesus, I can shoot webbing" and it doesn't gross her out???), or if it wasn't the webbing, it was the goblin. If not that, it was the MUTATED spider instead of the RADIOACTIVE spider.
The truth is, that all of the changes have really good reasons behind them, they just choose not to listen.
