IMO the Marvel Selects is probably the top Venom figure for me, it's trully fantastic, great size, great accessories, it captures probably the most quintessential aspects of Venom for me, I'd say its hard to top that figure (I held off on buying Legends Venom for years because of it, and actually only ended up getting Legends venom for the Monster BAF part in the end), I do love the Revoltech Venom but it's not a very classic style , awesome figure but, yes the Select is really the best we have (inless I'm missing something off the top of my brain)

i agree, I need to check and see what that figure goes for now a days.ever since the absorbing man wave one came out ive been pretty happy with that one in the meantime

I have alot of Venom figs and byfar my favorites are that monster baf, the marvel select, and the amazing toybiz icons.

I feel the same as you both but the other thing is this is based off his initial beginning, where the tongue wasnt a thing yet really. I also agree that more accessories would help it and the size kills me as well. Its just not the end all be all epitome of Venom. Its really more of a first appearence. I feel like Marvel Selects Venom did a great job of capturing multiple iterations of him in one fleshed out figure and he wasnt runty.

another downside to it is no tongue head, and for me that's a big part of venom

this is how I felt, I am a huge everything venom and symbiote fan but this just wasn't it for me in terms of a figure, I expected more from mafex there are so many better venom figures out , this hardly interests me and thats surprising , it lacks so much in terms of what I want from a venom piece

The blue in the suit is the best part about this figure.

I'm looking forward to this one. I pre-ordered it a whole year ago from Megalopolis lol. He may be a little small, which I don't think will bother me,but I would still pick it over the ML Venoms.

This fig looks super awesome and has some awesome features but hes so runty and even the Legends version DWARFS HIM>!?!? and for almost $100 bucks?!?! im a mega venom fan and I just cant do that.

Despite the height difference, I like this version of the classic Venom. I already preordered it a few months ago.
