The excitement continues to grow as fans eagerly await the chance to play Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. To celebrate the official debut of the latest Spider-Man adventure, Hot Toys has unveiled a new addition to their video game masterpiece series: the Venom 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure!
The Venom symbiote presents another set of challenges for the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man to tackle. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 sees our beloved wall-crawlers, Miles Morales and Peter Parker, entangled in a fight against the villainous Venom — all while contemplating their growing responsibilities as protectors of New York City.
Measuring an imposing 20.8” (53 cm) tall, the 1/6 scaled Venom collectible figure is faithfully crafted and meticulously hand-painted based on the character’s intimidating appearance in the new video game.
Featuring two newly developed headsculpts (one with an open mouth and the other with a wicked grin) and three interchangeable tongues, there are multiple ways to manipulate his menacing countenance. The specially designed body has over 20 points of articulation, and comes with numerous swap-out hands, claws, and symbiotic tendril accessories.
Add the Venom 1/6 Scale Figure to your Marvel collection! Available to pre-order now, via Sideshow.com.
