One of the best lines in Civil War - for any character, not just Spider-Man - came when he said they should take down Giant Man like "in that really old movie, The Empire Strikes Back."

It was a great reference, and highlighted how bloody young Peter is. Here, they continue down the Star Wars path, with Peter's rooming containing numerous nods to a galaxy far, far away. He has a number of action figures on one of his shelves, such as Bossk, there's an AT-AT on his desk (of course), and the object Ned is holding - and smashes - looks like it's some sort of Death Star model.
