More than that I'd also suggest that a good motivator for a company like this to make a figure of an obscure version of a character is that... Toei Spiderman is just Spiderman. Sure he has a bracelet and maybe the eye shape or line thickness details vary a bit but by and large you are just looking at normal Spiderman there, and so it's not a hard sell. Quickly looking up Hammond Spiderman and Brown Cap, both of those are much more distinct from the usual design -- and granted, they are distinct in a
very
goofy way that is a selling point of its own; but one that's probably markedly lower than "that's just Spiderman" in an exec's eyes. I definitely think it's possible though because ultimately those two are characters called Spiderman and Captain America, and ML has done more obscure pulls and variants before
