Genius! The Symbiote mania ended a long time ago for me, pretty much after Carnage, anything after that was just overkill & cheapened the concept of the characters. DP has hit that road as well imo. Ironman is really the only character in the entire Marvel universe where you can justify the countless different armors they can make of him. Possibly Wasp as well, but she doesn't have the popularity IM has to warrant multiple figures unless it's in an Avengers wave along with her Hubby who as of yet, has not been done as YellowJacket to replace that 1st sorry attempt by Hasbro of him. YJ rates the Shang Chi upper torso buck with Sunfire lower body buck.
Oooh....more Wasps and a new Yellowjacket! I like the way you think. I want Wasp in her Red and Yellow costume.

Fairly consistent, i'm glad this is an easy pass or something to buy as aspare in Black Friday prices
Such a dumb, unoriginal concept.
But Iguess if you wanted to create the ultimate unoriginal super hero/villain you could just have symbiotic bond with every superhero/supervillian...
Super-venom now has every power of every super hero/villainhe has bonded with...
Next on Marvel Comics Slate...."Extreme Carnage"- Every superhero bonds with carnage.... back to ground zero venom.

I dont like it because it makes Venom and the other symbiotes feel like they are losing their uniqueness. Its like overly using a cuss word, it loses its meaning after being said a billion times over. This, however interesting, just feels like "we have no better ideas, so heres a --------- version of acharacter". I do however like some of the characters designs, like that venompool wave, definitely picking thatup. This figure looks neat and is pretty nicely done, but not necessary. Im a purist with a few exceptions to my rule. This wont be one I go out of my way to obtain.
Altho I think its unfair and a bit dramatic to say "what a waste of plastic". People clearly enjoy this, why crap on someone elses joy? I would be excited to have a little weight lifted off my wallet with how many releases they have a year.
Not a huge Venom fan but don't hate the character either. Totally agree that "venomize everyone" dulls the uniqueness of the character... but this is one of the aspects of the character, right? So in that context this isn't a bad idea.
While I wont be picking these up, I wouldn't say they're a waste of plastic. A lot of fans out there DO like this and I wouldn't want to withhold anything from them. I certainly have my "want" list (the Vision, Lockjaw, Golden Age legends, more accurate female figs, translucent up the yin yang figs, Sophia Vergara, etc), but not everyone shares my desires.
Treat yo self, young man. Get your Venom on.

This just bugs me to no end. I hate the idea, I hate the whole Venomize Everything and Everyone concept. It's lazy and uncreative and just cheap pops for selling a bazillion alternate covers.Thisis a decent attempt at whatever they're trying to do here, it's a well done effort right down to the packaging, but the one thing that bothers me most is that we still don't have one definitive, good looking, perfect version of the daddy of all this cluster, Venom. Like I've said over and again, the Monster Venom is good, but that "classic" Venom is a steaming pile. Get that one right first Hasbro, then start dabbling in weirdo crap like this.
Easy pass, not a fan of the who Venomised diea
Haha mostly everybody hates this eh, I love it
