Spider-Man- Not enough of an expert to tell if there is any tooling change besides the decision to exclude a webshooter hand. Dig the darker blue, though. The armor is really interesting, if nothing more than seemingly offering some “story element” to the proceedings. The tendrils are a nice accessory, but the “talking head” is a REALLY fascinating decision. Before the film, the comics never had that element to the character (that I know of), so to see Hasbro incorporate that into the toyline is really interesting to me.

It's not the comics, but there was this some time ago...

Venomsaurus Rex, $30-35. A repaint and remold of the Spidersaurus Rex. You can use its flexible tongue to wrap around bad guys. Nifty.

Oh, please tell me it's based on this...

Hey, hope you don't mind, but I wanted to read the post, but I went in and broke it up a little to make it a little easier to digest, if you will. Hope you don't mind, and if you do, I can fix it. It's just past 3:30 here, and a lot of it kind of ran together visually, making it harder for my strangely-tired (long story) self to follow.

Didn't alter any text, though. Just wanted to more easily read what you were saying.

That’s fine. I posted it at a late time yesterday/day before, so a lot of it was just “brain streaming” of information.

Eh, it really DOES look to me like the venom head on the deluxe Spidey is designed to “interact” with Spider-Man or that the symbiote was “begrudgenly” working with Spider-Man. It’s on a ball joint, it seems, so we’ll have to see what the range on the joint is.

Here’s a link to Venomsaurus Rex. Design is skewing more modern…but the toy DOES have a spiny Mohawk and a stretchable tongue so…toy wins, I think?

Robot or human?

Hmm... close enough, I guess.

Another new Epic World Venomversus toy popped up on Amazon (on sale even!):
A ten-ish inch Hulkbuster Mech with an included "stealth-ish" Iron Man figure. Features an "repulsor firing" hand. Again, no notice from anywhere, it just showed up, it seems.

Man, if I had a nickel for everytime my buddy gifts me a Death's Head for a holiday.....

Well, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but weird it happened twice.
