Yeahp, you’ll get an Ultimate Venom on that body and then Venomized Venom, Carnage-ized Venom, Spidey Venom, Poison Venom, et al til you’re so utterly sick of Venom like it was the mid to late 90s all over again.
e2a: I forgot to chastise them further for the shoulder holes, which we know they’ll fix on an upcoming release with wider appeal like TBM suggested. Boo lazy assholes! Hasbro is starting to adapt this video game industry release mindset where, as a consumer, I’m not confident in the day 1 interest I have in their product knowing they always start by getting you excited with the most underperforming version of a character imaginable with their newly minted parts.

I am not a Spider-man collector, so any Venom figure is not really for me, but this new one is neat if you like the cartoon shaded look on figures. Normally I don't, but this one feels fun and unique with its two tones. In the right set up, I bet it will make for a cool photo op. Still a pass for me, but this is the type of thing I like to see as a con exclusive. Something fun and different, but not a necessity to the average collection.
With all the rumors today about the Disney+ wave two, I am sadly realizing that there is only 1 slot for a Loki figure (Sylvie) not 2! I don't know why I thought there would be two. I am disappointed that we are getting so many What If figures, but only 2 from Wandavision and 2 from Loki (plus 1 exclusive). At this rate I feel like we already need a special Disney+ line to fill in the missing characters like this years Infinity Saga line. There are still two more series coming out this year but I could definitely come up with 10 more figures or sets from the 2 & 2/3s shows we have already seen. |

You guys do know that Venom IS supposed to look like this in the paint used on his body and lips, right? This is Venom from the Fox Kids "Spider-Man" animated series and the paint is correct.
I realize not everyone is going to be happy with the way this figure turned out, but it's not inaccurate to the source material. The colors really are this bright in the light/daytime on the animated series. I just wish this wasn't an exclusive, I'd love to be able to buy this figure! |

Is he really worth $100? Because I've got two so I could display one with each head, but now you've got me thinking...

The new Dr. Strange and Jameson look good. Both of the Spiderman figures are underwhelming.

Throw in a Tobey Maguire Spider-Man in that wave.

I assume he's coming later, if not in a NWH wave then in a 20th anniversary wave haha

The tease from earlier in the week is a Modok 2 pack.

Totally getting the MODOK set for The Captain. I want Nextwave!
I also saw on Instagram that Dan from the Legends team was addressing the peg holes on venom. They will be filled in on the final figure. |

Hopefully we get a new Monica Rambeau soon then (in addition to the movie version they'll obviously be making soon).
Damn, the face print on Jameson looks really good. |

Disappointing Nextwave set. Definitely need the Captain, but the singular MODOK reuse is not cutting it for me. If they were going for reuse they should have added the Dread Rorkannu, a Brocolli man soldier, and possibly even a murder koala accesory to the set.

Odd choice… makes me wonder if we might see M.O.D.A.M. in the future. So is Elvis M.O.D.O.K. a major part of the series or what…? This seems like a raw deal for people who wanted more NextWave characters. You get a major member of the team, but with a fifty dollar oddity attached to him.

Thank you for that. I thought I'd missed part of the Hulu show where Patton Oswalt did Modok impersonating Elvis. That'd have been a riot.
I have no clue what Next Wave is, but what's with the naked ninjas and the Iron-Man head S&M babies? And the blue pirates? And did Machine Man decapitate one of the babies? ha I'm so looking this up now. |
