Since I was a kid, being a fan of the 1994 series, I was obsessed with the episodes that focused on Venom. Even desperately trying to get the Spider-Man The Venom Saga DVD. Awesome vid! Hopefully I'll be getting this figure one day.
Any future Venom figure will most likely use this body not the movie version. The movie version is great! But I’m telling you, this animated Venom figure is amazing! I was on the fence about it, and before cracking it open the movie Venom was my favorite Venom figure to date. Sadly it’s been moved to #2, this animated Venom is so sick! If you missed out on the PulseCon version, be patient don’t over pay (unless you really want to) I’m sure we will be seeing another version of this somewhere down the line!
Venom has multiple sizes in the comics, animations, and live action. He ranges from being a normal sized big dude to monstrously large that he could stand up to Juggernaut. But seriously Hasbro need to make movie Carnage cause that guy was an absolute unit.
I guess they do it because most collectors display their figures facing forward but it's still lazy especially for the ones who pose their figures in poses in which you can see a bit of the back.
This figure convinced me to get the Marvel Legends Movie Venom figure, especially when BBTS had him again. Not sure how that happened but I'm happy about it.
This version of venom and this spiderman show was what got me into marvel and superhero stuff, still have the venom saga DVD that first introduced me to the world of spiderman
Thats my introduction to Venom as a kid, when spiderman would come on in 2000 on fox kids. Ive been excited since i first saw they were making this figure. Def a must buy for me!
You know what would be cool? A multi-headed venom head sculpt. Maybe it could be made as a custom by putting ball pegs into those holes in Venom's shoulders
The Select Venom has a ‘backpack’ that simulates ‘The Madness’ and even has extra mini arms that plug into the larger actual forearms; hands are interchangeable
I was and still am a MASSIVE Spidey Animated Series fan from the 90s and LOVED the Venom arcs of the show!!! CANNOT WAIT to get this figure IN HAND, Tmrrw!!!
Weird but, here in Mexico 🇲🇽 a national department store called Liverpool got it as an exclusive before it was released in USA at Hasbro Pulse Con. This also happened with the Walgreens Silver Surfer (first version), Nova and Quasar that went to Juguetron and Amazon, i guess Hasbro is expanding their exclusive releases through certain retail stores in different countries.
It's decent, a good step in the right direction but they always have a big flaw with Venom figs. I'm hoping we get a regular release with the shoulder holes fixed
Love the Omega Red Body mould for this. Not too keen on the cell shading. In some pics it looks great in others, not so much. Hope they re-release this in regular deco and maybe with tendrils that port into the shoulder holes. Would be spot on if they threw in an Eddie Brock head too . I'd like to see a Sabretooth on this body.
Just got my Hasbro Pulse order today, and I got say… This figure in hand blew my mind. Easily my favorite ML of the year so far! If you’re judging by promo photos, don’t! You have to have it in hand to really make a decision! Favorite Venom figure in my collection!
THE REVIEW IS HERE! Can’t wait to see what you think about the figure in hand,and what the cons are,just so I have something to look out for when mine comes
Very cool but the shoulder holes and missing white squares do bother me. Think the monster Brock Venom is still my favorite. If they release the retail version with the painted squares on the hands then it'll definitely be a buy for me.
Monster Venom would be nearly perfect if they had given him an alternate closed mouth head, alternate hands, and Sasquatch-style neck articulation. It drives me fucking insane how rarely they use the Rhino/Sasquatch/Wendigo style neck joint, despite how many figures DESPERATELY need it - like Monster Venom, Gargan Monster Venom, Toxin, Man-Thing, Ursa Major, Ulik, etc.
Very nice ML action figure representation of Venom with ridiculous holes on the shoulders. I'm waiting for the classic Venom from the comics using this mold that will be released later on for sure. Thanks for the review Shartimus.
That's because it never bonded with spiderman which negates it's ability to crawl on walls (without using his claws) have a spider Sense or shooting web's
really wish they'd done something with the shoulder holes, it just comes off as super lazy. Glad to hear the highlights look cool in person, wasn't sure about them in pictures.
This figure pisses me off. Everything about him is great except the head! The teeth in the series were spaced out and curved a certain direction, but they just threw a regular old venom head on, resculpted a bit, and called it a day.
If they make a perfect venom figure no one would buy the other ones after they just try to keep making figures close to perfection so we can keep buying
Oh, Hasbro. Such a great idea for a figure, finally make a great choice with the body mold, and then completely overlook the white squares on his hands and ruin the back paint job. Both were probably done to save a couple of cents.
Venom in the cartoon didn't have the white squares on his wrists Spider-man did however. This figure is 100% accurate aside from the forked tongue. Gonna havs to pick it up
This figure looks so awesome! Even tho I wasn't alive when he was how he is here, it still looks awesome and I'm definitely going to pick up one! Good review too shartimusprime
Honestly, I prefer the Hyperion body for him, especially when you account for those shoulder holes, which definitely should have been filled with tendril accessories at the "premium" price point. Even ignoring that though, the Omega Red body has weird proportions and is too large for Venom.
Man, what a fantastic Venom. Somehow this is the first good Legends Venom, aside from Deluxe Monster Venom. Every other one has been a failure in some way. - stupid Hyperion mold - wrong head on the Monster Venom BAF - ugly head design and lack of chest spider on the movie figure - ANOTHER stupid Hyperion mold with an oversized Brock head - even Agent Venom - great figure aside from godawful hip joints - Superior Venom - too small and shitty tentacle arms that just fall out I don't understand why Hasbro has had such a hard time making a good Venom figure, but it looks like we may be nearing the end of that journey.
Because venom is so inconsistent sometimes he is a hulking body builder then next panel he is barely bigger than carnage venom is quite literally my favorite character but I cant blame hasbro for not knowing what to do with him saying some people will be mad in some way
Since I was a kid, being a fan of the 1994 series, I was obsessed with the episodes that focused on Venom. Even desperately trying to get the Spider-Man The Venom Saga DVD. Awesome vid! Hopefully I'll be getting this figure one day.
I have 2 DVD of the Venom saga want to buy one ?
@@shwartzbe1433 he said 'Hopefully he will be getting that figure, not dvd
"Even desperately trying to get the spider man the venom saga DVD."
@@shwartzbe1433 maybe HAHA
Same dude same. That show is where my love for symbiotes and Spider man came from.
I really hope Hasbro reuses that Movie Venom body mold and makes a Mark Bagley art-style Venom figure from the 90s comics with the light blue shading.
Its a dang good body.
(I would like a version 2 of the body with butterfly joints)
@@Da_ComputerMonster it's already one of my favorite figures if it had butterfly joints it very likely would've been my favorite
Let us pray:
Dear Lord, stay out of our way.
Holding out hope, because I’m assuming this will be hard to get.
Any future Venom figure will most likely use this body not the movie version. The movie version is great! But I’m telling you, this animated Venom figure is amazing!

I grew up fascinated by Venom and Carnage. The animated series, the SNES games, the toys, etc.
Nostalgia level over 9000.
The only thing i wish they give this figure was a animated Eddie Brock head. Would be sooo cool. Great review!!!!
Venom has multiple sizes in the comics, animations, and live action.
He ranges from being a normal sized big dude to monstrously large that he could stand up to Juggernaut.
But seriously Hasbro need to make movie Carnage cause that guy was an absolute unit.
Highly doubt they will bc they didnt do riot
Hope they do
Ever since I saw the color scheme on this version of Venom, I’ve always been obsessed.
I'm hoping for a symbiote God venom with the the axe and wings. That would be dope as hell
I don't like the trend of figures having a ton of paint detail on the front and NOTHING on the back.
I guess they do it because most collectors display their figures facing forward but it's still lazy especially for the ones who pose their figures in poses in which you can see a bit of the back.
I agree but in this case venom is literally just black lol even on the back of his body
Yo battle frame!
@@thememeguy2195 not lazy, just cheap… and indifferent.
Back lives matter
This figure convinced me to get the Marvel Legends Movie Venom figure, especially when BBTS had him again. Not sure how that happened but I'm happy about it.
Great figure
This version of venom and this spiderman show was what got me into marvel and superhero stuff, still have the venom saga DVD that first introduced me to the world of spiderman
This figure’s awesome, really wishing the Retro Spidey had an Animated Series head so they’d better match
Sounds like a good idea for a custom
I can’t imagine they won’t make an Animated Spidey.
@@FamineStudios It's definitely a possibility, as it would be a great opportunity for them to get that Retro Spidey figure back out there
@@FamineStudios I mean how many times we got wolverine, iron and spidey repaints im sure we'll get one at some point
Try swapping the Pizza Spidey
Swell review. It's a cool Venom. I'd probably try and get one but I'm extremely happy with my deluxe Venom.
Glad to have helped Shartimus!!!
That spiderman cartoon from the 90s takes me back. I remember all those figures toybiz used to make.
“There’s no more Eddie and no more symbiote. Only…Venom.”
I really like this venom figure
Thats my introduction to Venom as a kid, when spiderman would come on in 2000 on fox kids. Ive been excited since i first saw they were making this figure. Def a must buy for me!
My first exposure to Venom was this animated version when I was a kid. I need this on my shelf.
You know what would be cool? A multi-headed venom head sculpt. Maybe it could be made as a custom by putting ball pegs into those holes in Venom's shoulders
So like venom the madness?
The Select Venom has a ‘backpack’ that simulates ‘The Madness’ and even has extra mini arms that plug into the larger actual forearms; hands are interchangeable
@@MEmoosetrax select's venom is the best
Honestly I can watch a WHOLE VIDEO of you just posing figures. I love your spiderman posing.
The open hands look a lot like the Monster Venom BAF wave hands, but they're scaled down. No one else has noticed that...
I thought they looked familiar
I noticed, just didn’t voice my opinion
I was and still am a MASSIVE Spidey Animated Series fan from the 90s and LOVED the Venom arcs of the show!!! CANNOT WAIT to get this figure IN HAND, Tmrrw!!!

Hasta estuvo en 800 pesos hace como dos meses. Lo dejé pasar y ya está de nuevo en 2000 :(
i would love to see a marvel legends carnage from this wave
It's decent, a good step in the right direction but they always have a big flaw with Venom figs. I'm hoping we get a regular release with the shoulder holes fixed
I hope they do a normal release of this figure without the blue and red highlights
I always hated that so much
Random comment but I’ve been here since Glenn Webb past, it’s great to see how far you’ve come keep on rockin man
Love the Omega Red Body mould for this. Not too keen on the cell shading. In some pics it looks great in others, not so much.
Hope they re-release this in regular deco and maybe with tendrils that port into the shoulder holes. Would be spot on if they threw in an Eddie Brock head too .
I'd like to see a Sabretooth on this body.
That was, I think, the fastest articulation segment I've ever seen. Loved it.
That Mafex Venom looks great. He just needs some lifts lol.
I always had a soft spot for the red and blue outlines from the 1990’s cartoon.
Just got my Hasbro Pulse order today, and I got say…
This figure in hand blew my mind. Easily my favorite ML of the year so far!
If you’re judging by promo photos, don’t! You have to have it in hand to really make a decision! Favorite Venom figure in my collection!
This version of venom made me a Spider-man fan. But found in the wild? I thought it was a Hasbro pulse exclusive, who else is caring it?
Apparently overseas he was sold in stores since they cant really use hasbro pulse
THE REVIEW IS HERE! Can’t wait to see what you think about the figure in hand,and what the cons are,just so I have something to look out for when mine comes
I still watch this videos since 2014
I can't wait until the new black costume spidey comes out
lowkey the "venom" voice was great
I've been watching you for 5 years and you have always been the best TH-camr
I like how the open hands are just smaller versions of the hands on the monster venom figure
Great review as always man 👍, looks like an awesome figure. Shartimus showing up at the Venom party was hilarious lol
I’m still waiting for when they actually let folks preorder the damn figure. I’ve had my account open since the announcement.
Dope review! Let have this Venom punch out Big Time Spidey in the stop motion clips from now on 🤣
Rewatching this after seeing the new marvel legends venom 3 pack reveal
Very cool but the shoulder holes and missing white squares do bother me. Think the monster Brock Venom is still my favorite. If they release the retail version with the painted squares on the hands then it'll definitely be a buy for me.

I’m not feeling the animated paint look, but I love Venom on that body mold.
Very nice ML action figure representation of Venom with ridiculous holes on the shoulders. I'm waiting for the classic Venom from the comics using this mold that will be released later on for sure.
Thanks for the review Shartimus.
Need Definitely Want Spider-Man TAS Retro Carnage Figure
Amazing figure dude iam gonna buy it always when i wonna buy a figure a always watch your reviews!
I’d like to see a Todd mc farlane venom design marvel legends using the omega red body
This Figure Is Awesome Because This Version Of Venom Is THE GOAT 👍🏾👍🏾
Mr shart,I just want to say you always made my day happy, stay safe, don't mind the haters, just enjoy👍
I just realized in the two new venom movies that venom doesn't have webs at all. Weird
That's because it never bonded with spiderman which negates it's ability to crawl on walls (without using his claws) have a spider Sense or shooting web's
@@RyanGP1203_MemeLord nice. I'm not super informed. That's juicy info.
That Venom figure looks Badass.
I also have a poundz978 custom Venom and that is my ML Venom. I like the size difference between Spiderman and the movie Venom mold.
Those Omega Red shoulders look like fckin Toy Biz shoulders
Those old red and blue color from the lights on venom from the old shows
And this is where I put my Vintage collection Venom with my Vintage spider man!
IF I HAD ONE!!!!!!!! 😡
Overall This venom looks nice
Some may not agree but I still want a more comic accurate version on this mold or using the new Hercules mold.
I think when I get my Venom figure, I’m going to use that puddy that unparalleled used for his custom movie venom to plug the holes.
Honestly that bigger head kinda works on the body, reminds me of the Toybiz figure in a way, hah!
I Love Spiderman the Animated series 1994 Action Figures
I love the shading on this. I can’t wait to get it
really wish they'd done something with the shoulder holes, it just comes off as super lazy. Glad to hear the highlights look cool in person, wasn't sure about them in pictures.
This figure pisses me off. Everything about him is great except the head! The teeth in the series were spaced out and curved a certain direction, but they just threw a regular old venom head on, resculpted a bit, and called it a day.
I'm not really a big fan of ducklips venom but to each their own
If they make a perfect venom figure no one would buy the other ones after they just try to keep making figures close to perfection so we can keep buying
He looks like carnage and venom combined
Oh, Hasbro. Such a great idea for a figure, finally make a great choice with the body mold, and then completely overlook the white squares on his hands and ruin the back paint job. Both were probably done to save a couple of cents.
Venom in the cartoon didn't have the white squares on his wrists Spider-man did however. This figure is 100% accurate aside from the forked tongue. Gonna havs to pick it up
This figure would be perfect for a Marvel Repaint in the lighter blue venom was in MVC1
It would be cool to get a deluxe carnage with a lot of weapons and accessories or even a deluxe venom with all sorts of heads and tendrils.
I'll have to own this just for the nostalgia vibe that it gives me.
Definitely gotta get a few of these for my friends and family of course
I really wanted that figure for a long time
Yeah I'm def going to pick this one up as its the best body and height scale for any Spider-Man you have.
Great review. I love duck venom.
i legit was thinking about you reviewing this figure and then i refreshed and saw this vid.
He looks awesome. I definitely would like to add him to my collection.
Oh my god I want this in all black
Got this guy today after ordering him after Christmas love the box love the look of the figure not opened it yet
Ah yeah the good old Spider-Man animated cartoon
When will this venom be available for pre order??
Mine was just delivered 🙌🏾
This figure looks so awesome! Even tho I wasn't alive when he was how he is here, it still looks awesome and I'm definitely going to pick up one! Good review too shartimusprime
can't get past the holes. I'll wait for the next version.
The red/blue mustache looks kinda goofy but other than that I think this’ll make a fine first Venom figure.
The prices on Marvel Legends are increasing but the quality control of the paint apps remains the same. What a world 😔
I think Poundz's Venom figures still beats this one, though I can see why you'd prefer this one.
Same bro I really like the poundz custom.
Wow I really,really wish it's gonna be shipped here in the Philippines and into one of our online shops! So excited and really impatient
I hope we get a standard release that doesn't have the red and blue paint.
We will they may even fix the holes
Tommrow is my 27 birthday and I got marvel lenders she hulk .
Your on 616k subs... 616 is the main marvel universe or earth in the comics
Honestly, I prefer the Hyperion body for him, especially when you account for those shoulder holes, which definitely should have been filled with tendril accessories at the "premium" price point. Even ignoring that though, the Omega Red body has weird proportions and is too large for Venom.
Eh, I wouldn't say "too" large. Looks good on him, I think

thank you so much for making this amazing review!

Best hasbro venom
One problem with this figure imo is that the body is not bulky enough. Beef it up a bit more and the likeness would be flawless.
Man, what a fantastic Venom.
Somehow this is the first good Legends Venom, aside from Deluxe Monster Venom.
Every other one has been a failure in some way.
- stupid Hyperion mold
- wrong head on the Monster Venom BAF
- ugly head design and lack of chest spider on the movie figure
- ANOTHER stupid Hyperion mold with an oversized Brock head
- even Agent Venom - great figure aside from godawful hip joints
- Superior Venom - too small and shitty tentacle arms that just fall out
I don't understand why Hasbro has had such a hard time making a good Venom figure, but it looks like we may be nearing the end of that journey.
It's not really Hasbro's fault for the lack of a spider on movie venom.
Because venom is so inconsistent sometimes he is a hulking body builder then next panel he is barely bigger than carnage venom is quite literally my favorite character but I cant blame hasbro for not knowing what to do with him saying some people will be mad in some way
@@Hirabeatz Disappointing everyone all the time is never the right answer.
Probably the biggest con you could give this guy is the holes in his shoulders/traps.
@@bekkfxst Yea. Easily.
I mean he's still a long way away from perfect, but by the standards of like a year and a half ago....he's basically perfect.
I'd like one without the red and blue on it.
