I definitely dislike the idea of not seeing what you’re buying. I think it’ll lead to more people stealing the items, and people getting back to their homes or something and not noticing that they’re missing their figures until they’ve already got home. Just to return their stuff right afterwards. Think this’ll cause more issue then it will help the company in the long run.
I feel like this is incredibly overpriced, pretty good figures but I can't think of one being 40$. The windowless packaging is stupid, you can't see the figures inside so I saw primevsprime got a qc error where venom has no paint on his eye, also as you said plastic is recyclable too. Great review Anthony and yes feet for venom would be great and I don't skip the intro, it's catchy and fast
Knull is a complete new figure and venom has new sculpts on the venom movie body, apart from that he has huge wings that are a huge amount of plastic, stop being a bitch because you’re broke
I think if you were to do a head and feet pack for the venom, I’d go for a Ryan Stegman styled head. His art works really well for the movie body because in the comics he draws the symbiote to have texture. Plus it would go really well with the knull since both were drawn primarily by him during that arc
The reason we have this venom on this body is because fans all over were asking for it. Apparently everybody likes the movie venom buck, and they wanted it for the comic book version, and everybody’s been customizing their movie venom to look like the comic book version so now Hasbro is giving us this
Yeah, that movie Venom buck is one of THE best bodies ML has ever produced. It's literally like the Marvel Select Venom if he had the best Legends articulation setup. Hell, it's got a better articulation setup than most other marvel legends when I think about it.
Got this just yesterday and definitely worth the two pack here. just love the movie buck for venom and knull is just terrific. very happy with this set and cannot imagine anything better. enjoy people and good day 👍
I preordered this, but I canceled and I’ll wait for the Black Friday sale. It’s a gorgeous set, but not worth $80 including taxes, and it definitely won’t be scarce, particularly after they released what will probably be a better-looking classic Venom in the Amazon 3-pack.
Personally I like this venom better, the head on the new one doesn’t do it for me. This is more along the lines of what I like with venom designs. But I get why people are canceling for the 3 pack. I ordered both, to complete life foundation and for the winged venom and knull.
i really want knull but don't care for venom so that price is killer, idc if they're big there still should be more accessories than this. i could find imports for that price. not knull specifically of course but man
Actually, this 2 pack doesn't look bad at all, Knull has all new sculpt, granted, could use some more paint , articulation is decent, Venom is a good repaint and the 2 face sculpts are well done, I think it might be worth tracking down
@@sigerlion8608 eh, some are worth it, I liked the recent Bane and Swamp Thing, but most of the time, not really. Mega figs seem to be their strong suit, and the Spawn line, really loved the commando Spawn
All the megafigs (many of which are around this size) cost $40 like the figures in this pack if you divided up the price. And they never get any accessories. Plus paint is notoriously absent on McFarlanes figures. Also a lot of the megafigs in particular have very poor articulation.
Knull doesn't look like knull he looks like morbius to me the eyes have been sculpted wrong and the head is a lil small for that big chunky body. Definitely a lazy job.
@sigerlion I think this is an overpriced pack, but it’s still not much better than what mcfarlane can do for $40, that’s my point. I have 4 megafigs, violator, killer croc, clayface and manbat. Violator is huge and top heavy but he falls over easily so he has to crouch making him about this size anyway. He’s probably the best megafig that has been released, anyways. Manbat and the others are much smaller, my clayface has very loose arm joints and looks small next to even Batman. Killer croc and man bat could have benefited from extra accessories, man bat should be able to spread his wings and he can barely stand, and clayface should have gotten extra morphing hands. Knull has as much paint as he needs, with multiple tones and even painted wraps around his wrists, as opposed to some average dc multiverse or mk11 figures like bloodsport or shao Kahn that are missing most of their paint. Accessories are always better too. Mcfarlane usually doesn’t afford much to accessories.
I would absolutely be interested in some toe-less comic feet for the Venom figure if they were reasonably priced. I also think a Mark Bagley style head would suit this body very well.
Packaging doesn't really bother me, I tend to buy online anyway. Would DEFINITELY buy some feet. I did the Tombstone lower leg swap on the movie figure and it's okay, but a real solution would be nice. I don't skip the intro, it's short enough and sounds good sped up.
Yes Anthony! If you have time new feet and even a Bagley head would be awesome! My favorite style of venom is the bagley style forsure but the head sculpt given is pretty good as you said. Oh and I love the intro I dont skip 💯. I also agree that the logo is too long on him i dont like how far the spider butt goes down in the front especially I was thinking of painting some black over and reshaping it a bit. Besides that its the cleanest symbiote logo I've seen from hasbro in a minute
I rewatching this review many moons later & I cannot be happier with this set & equally as happy that Marvel learned from their mistakes & decided 2 ditch the abysmal windowless packing & returning back 2 the window packing we all know & love!! This review was great then & is just as great now!
I never skip the intro. The paint is even better than the Mafex Venom. Highly over-priced, but cool looking figs. The after market could get insane on these down the line. Non window is truly silly. Why can't they use cellulose instead of plastic? It's not even sealed with a holo foil sticker so they can't be tampered with.
#1. Yes, please make feet for this Venom. It drives me bonkers how Hasbro didn't bother giving this Venom the usual slipper feet. I've been looking everywhere for someone willing to make feet for this Venom and I will buy them in an instant. #2. No, I never skip the intro. It's always good to see the figures on a turntable with the packaging in the background. I also like hearing your initial thoughts and sometimes you have funny things to say, such as the sarcasm with a figure being "really good" if it's bad. lol
I never skip the intro, it means it's go time. I hope it stays, it's kind of your signature. 😁 These figures are an easy pass for me. Even if they look pretty cool. Knull is such a strange name (considering what it means in Swedish - 😱 what a terrible choice).
I'd love Venom feet for this figure! I feel like if he had comic sock style, he could be a nearly perfect Venom figure. A Bagley head would be great, but feet are a must! Also, the windowless packaging sucks for some many reasons, and nope, I watch the whole reviews including the intro!
I don’t mind the all-cardboard packaging if I’m ordering online but it’s gonna be sad when they get rid of the retro-packaging with the big window. I really wish the wings could’ve attached to Knull as well :( Yes, PLEASE make the custom feet for Venom!!! Great review as always, thank you!
Plastic is way harder to recycle than paper and cardboard but in my experience with QC with hasbro customer service they are pretty understanding so getting a replacement piece wouldn’t be that crazy but I know it’s annoying to have to go through all that
Always watch the intro, all of the video is generally great! Not fussed about the packaging, I suspect plastic is harder/more costly to recycle than cardboard/paper, plus I get all my figures through the post, so don't have any use for a window. In fact, I'd be happy to have a an option for no packaging, just the figure and accessories in a bag, sent in a shipping box - if it saves me money and cuts down on stuff I end up binning/recycling then all good
I always watch the intro. As for the window-less packaging, I mostly couldn't care less since I never buy this stuff off the shelf anymore in favor of online, but I get why people buying these at Target or wherever would have a problem with not being able to see the product.
I do typically skip the intros, but I get why they are there from an aesthetic perspective. I really want them to make just a normal classic Venom on this body. It's like they gave it wings with those peg holes in the back so we would have to buy the figure again when they do. And if it was pinless this would make it the ultimate Venom figure across the board. All that being said, I hadn't thought about modding it with normal feet, but that is an amazing idea.
I don't skip the intro. Standard superhero feet would be great for Venom. I really only want Knull, but I'll wait for sale. Looking at Knull, I think they'll repurpose the head for Dracula.
If you make feet any idea of a cost, would they have a texture, need any tweaking etc? Also how hard would they be to get on? I'd be interested but depending on the other things. Also any idea how difficult it'd be to make pegs for the back to hide the holes well?
Only 5% of all plastic gets recycled. If that. Knull disappoints me, because while he is a decent figure and about that tall... he needs to look lanky and eldritch, not just a tall boy. I'd love for you to make Venom feet. I was hyped for you to review these. Hyped for you to review the Renew Your Vows figures.
I don't skip the intro, it's been there forever and it kind of drops you into the loop track that plays nicely. I usually put these on in the background anyway.
I would really love if you made feet replacements for this Venom! I really love this 2-pack, but the toes on the feet drive me nuts. I’ve never liked Venom with toes, and the classic sock/booted feet are what he had in the King in Black storyline, so it makes so much more sense for this figure. I also saw a comment from someone that asked if you could also make a headsculpt that matches Ryan Stegmans artwork for this series, and I would also LOVE that. I would buy it in a heartbeat. I also would kill for you to make a Mark Bagley style headsculpt. I’ve wanted that kind of head for Venom figures for ages because it’s my favorite look for him. But no company has ever really done one. It also would be amazing to have considering we are getting that awesome Venom in the separation anxiety Amazon set, so having an actual Mark Bagley style head for that figure as well would make it most likely my absolute favorite Venom figure. Thanks for the great review Anthony! And hopefully we get some amazing Venom feet and headsculpts from you soon!
I would love custom feet for this venom. I hate when venom has toes. so having some custom boot feet like venom occasionally has would be amazing for me. Additionally, I like the video intros. The brief summary of the figure beforehand helps me bvecome more invested in the review and the verdict.
Great figures, but overpriced. I hate the windowless package. I like to see what I buy. I'm glad I open everything, it must suck even more for in-box collectors. Defeats the purpose of keeping them in the box when you can't even see them.
I rarely skip the intro, It just depends on the situation. Not interested in the feet or head deal because passing on this, just not a huge venom guy to begin but like window shopping.
The intro is iconic to me, as far as your channel is concerned. It isn't long enough to be a bother and it's not short enough for it to not even matter.
Absolutely concur with everyone else. Comic accurate feet would be amazing to have! For me right now this is my definitive comic Venom. I’m not even upset about missing out on the Mafex Venom now with this guy. The movie feet don’t necessarily kill it for me but that’s my only little nitpick with this figure. I would really love to get an unmasked Eddie head with a beard to match this comic arc too.
I enjoy your intro. It works as a quick signature. I'm still reading King in Black and love the artwork and story thus far. The two pack is a bit overpriced. I'm not sure why Hasbro has made the last three Venom figures either exclusive or in packs: animated exclusive, Knull pack, Amazon 3-pack. Making one of the most popular characters cost more to obtain is profit/greed motivated. Making a deluxe release where it is just Venom with several accessories would be more customer friendly. New feet, tendrils or filler pegs for the back, and Stegman style heads that fix the articulation issue you described would be great! I love your critical reviews. Keep it up!
I do skip the intro but I do that with pretty much any figure review. I just want to get to the point where the piece is being reviewed. Also a set of non-toed feet would be cool to have if you could get them to match the body.
Yes please make a foot pack for this venom the toes are really unappealing. I don't skip the intro i like it, even if I didn't like it I think it's short enough to not be an issue
This Venom looks really cool, Knull too, but honestly for the price this pack is selling in my country I'll rather buy a bootleg or loose Venom figure and paint it myself.
I hate the no windows. I called thee lady over and explained while I opened Ironspider to make sure he was in there with no issue. She said a lot of people are doing that. Good review
I'd be down for a head and feet option. Maybe make a closed mouth head that just looks better in general. Don't like how his eyes look on the closed mouth, but I do generally prefer a closed mouth Venom figure, and so far no company seems to know how to make a closed mouth Venom (or open mouth without the tongue) except for the movie Venom. Closed mouth, but with some red coming through on the sides.
I know a few have commented on his feet, especially the movie version. The thing is, this venom is based off of art of Ryan Stegman. If you look at his art, he draws venom with the toes.
Would absolutely buy replacement feet and a Ryan Stegman styled head from you. Would love it if you did hole fillers for the back too since I don't see myself using the wings all too much.
Putting the recycle aspect to one side the new packaging eliminates in box collecting and it looks cheap but prices are rising for me its always been about the display aspect in box but with these that value has been lost.
I used to skip Until I realized it was only a few seconds long. One of my favorite parts is how you have him on the spinning stand. When I skip it I miss most of that part. That’s why I don’t anymore
Being honest, I love your intro, sometimes I skip it and go straight to the video because I see the intro every time but most of the time I let it play.
Great review but one question why do you knock down McFarlane figures about proportions of the whole body but did not mention one time one these? Knull neck is super long not even proportion right...
I normally watch the intro, there's a new comic book Venon being released with regular feet and head so I don't need new ones. I like this two pack and I agree with your critics. Thanks for the review Anthony.
A lot of plastic isn't recyclable. The recycling logo on plastics was an industry scam to mislead consumers. And most plastics that are recyclable don't get recycled because it costs less to use new plastic. Five to ten percent gets recycled in North America. Respect to Hasbro for trying and hopefully learning how to get back to using more renewable packaging like toy companies did pre-60s. I don't recall anyone ever complaining about Transformers Masterpiece or Titans not coming in windowed boxes.
I’m happy that we got this pack but my only gripes are that i wished they could of had the dragon logos tail asymmetrical and straight down the middle and VENOMS AXE/SWORD COMBO FUSION FROM MJOLNIR/SurfersBoard hybrid weapon to combat KNULLS ALLBLACK NECROSWORD INSTEAD OF THE WINGS
Windowless packaging is a crock. They say it's "for the environment", but you're right in that the plastic window is just as recyclable as anything else. It's another cost cutting move. It's cheaper for them to do it this way or you better believe they wouldn't be doing it. I'm sure they knew there would be backlash over it, but they knew people would ultimately buy anyway. A bean counter at Hasbro learned that it would be .018% cheaper to produce these if they took away the customer's ability to SEE what they are buying.....so here we are.
1:04 you just end the debate wether they should use full on cardboard or plastic window in a quick sentence lol. Bandai Tamashii Nation (shfiguart) still use plastic window & iirc, Japan has the best recycling rate. Hmm, something is not quite right here...
I definitely dislike the idea of not seeing what you’re buying. I think it’ll lead to more people stealing the items, and people getting back to their homes or something and not noticing that they’re missing their figures until they’ve already got home. Just to return their stuff right afterwards. Think this’ll cause more issue then it will help the company in the long run.
Some reviewers have already unboxed products with missing paint.
I don't skip the intro. It's part of the review. Like a regular show.
I feel like this is incredibly overpriced, pretty good figures but I can't think of one being 40$. The windowless packaging is stupid, you can't see the figures inside so I saw primevsprime got a qc error where venom has no paint on his eye, also as you said plastic is recyclable too.

Agree.. imagine the price here in malaysia.. times 4.. just for these 2 we have to pay bout RM160.. damn.. that overprice for a piece of plastic..
If they both had more accessories more hands, heads, even throwing it black pegs for venoms back would've been appreciated
@@joul9681 are you saying The USD and RM? Has the same value? Because it doesn't
@@jadslash i know it does not have the same value.. just rough estimation..

Sucks that they had to put those big holes on the back
Got this just yesterday and definitely worth the two pack here. just love the movie buck for venom and knull is just terrific. very happy with this set and cannot imagine anything better. enjoy people and good day 👍
Another good idea for a 3rd-party item for that Venom: a symbiote tendril piece that can plug into and cover the wing-portholes in his back.
Oh yeah that would look great.
I'd be down for a feet and head pack. Also I don't skip the intro. It's fairly quick.
I agree the no window packaging is ridiculous, and it is a bit too expensive, but I definitely wanna get this👌🏻
Entertainment Earth is shipping some copies out 👀
its half off on bbts rn.
I preordered this, but I canceled and I’ll wait for the Black Friday sale. It’s a gorgeous set, but not worth $80 including taxes, and it definitely won’t be scarce, particularly after they released what will probably be a better-looking classic Venom in the Amazon 3-pack.
I canceled this set and ordered the three pack Instead. I only wanted the 2 pack for Venom.
Personally I like this venom better, the head on the new one doesn’t do it for me. This is more along the lines of what I like with venom designs. But I get why people are canceling for the 3 pack. I ordered both, to complete life foundation and for the winged venom and knull.
Same here. I prefer the Amazon 3 pack Venom anyway. I'll only buy this if it's on clearance.
i really want knull but don't care for venom so that price is killer, idc if they're big there still should be more accessories than this. i could find imports for that price. not knull specifically of course but man
well i found it for half price so i will take that lol
Actually, this 2 pack doesn't look bad at all, Knull has all new sculpt, granted, could use some more paint , articulation is decent, Venom is a good repaint and the 2 face sculpts are well done, I think it might be worth tracking down
@@sigerlion8608 eh, some are worth it, I liked the recent Bane and Swamp Thing, but most of the time, not really.
Mega figs seem to be their strong suit, and the Spawn line, really loved the commando Spawn
All the megafigs (many of which are around this size) cost $40 like the figures in this pack if you divided up the price. And they never get any accessories. Plus paint is notoriously absent on McFarlanes figures. Also a lot of the megafigs in particular have very poor articulation.
Knull doesn't look like knull he looks like morbius to me the eyes have been sculpted wrong and the head is a lil small for that big chunky body. Definitely a lazy job.
It's great, but still overpriced.
@sigerlion I think this is an overpriced pack, but it’s still not much better than what mcfarlane can do for $40, that’s my point. I have 4 megafigs, violator, killer croc, clayface and manbat. Violator is huge and top heavy but he falls over easily so he has to crouch making him about this size anyway. He’s probably the best megafig that has been released, anyways. Manbat and the others are much smaller, my clayface has very loose arm joints and looks small next to even Batman. Killer croc and man bat could have benefited from extra accessories, man bat should be able to spread his wings and he can barely stand, and clayface should have gotten extra morphing hands. Knull has as much paint as he needs, with multiple tones and even painted wraps around his wrists, as opposed to some average dc multiverse or mk11 figures like bloodsport or shao Kahn that are missing most of their paint. Accessories are always better too. Mcfarlane usually doesn’t afford much to accessories.
p.s. I watch all your intros. They’re never boring. You do a good job on them.
I would absolutely be interested in some toe-less comic feet for the Venom figure if they were reasonably priced. I also think a Mark Bagley style head would suit this body very well.
Back when the first movie figure came out I immediately swapped them with the select venom feet. Still in proportion and completes the classic look !
Packaging doesn't really bother me, I tend to buy online anyway.
Would DEFINITELY buy some feet. I did the Tombstone lower leg swap on the movie figure and it's okay, but a real solution would be nice.
I don't skip the intro, it's short enough and sounds good sped up.
Never skip the intro and Venom feet d be amazing. Have a good weekend Anthony!
I’ve been watching your channel for over 7-8 years and I’ve NEVER skipped the intro. I love it. Keep it
I actually prefer having the intro, i think it’s part of your videos. Gives it a nice structured feel, like you said
truth to be told i jammed to your intro, so i never skipped it cause it looks cool with the video game menu style
Glad you like it

Standard superhero feet would be great for Venom. I really only want Knull, but I'll wait for sale. Looking at Knull, I think they'll repurpose the head for Dracula.

I'd love for you to make Venom feet. I was hyped for you to review these. Hyped for you to review the Renew Your Vows figures.
This is one of the few Marvel Legends I've bought and would totally love new feet for this. I don't skip your intro, but I might skip the outro
I don't skip the intro, it's been there forever and it kind of drops you into the loop track that plays nicely. I usually put these on in the background anyway.
I don't skip the intro, I watch the entire video. The intro brings it all together
I don’t skip the intro, give me the nostalgia vibes whenever I here the music, same with Shartimus prime

The intro is the cat’s pajamas. I would never skip it. Thanks for another delightful review Anthony💗
I do not skip the intro.
The intro is the best in the business and I would rather have sock feet for the monster Venom.
Yes! I totally say yes to a pair of normal feet and a Mark Bagley head for this venom!

Making one of the most popular characters cost more to obtain is profit/greed motivated. Making a deluxe release where it is just Venom with several accessories would be more customer friendly.
New feet, tendrils or filler pegs for the back, and Stegman style heads that fix the articulation issue you described would be great!
I love your critical reviews. Keep it up!
I do skip the intro but I do that with pretty much any figure review. I just want to get to the point where the piece is being reviewed. Also a set of non-toed feet would be cool to have if you could get them to match the body.
I already did lol. They match. Just need to make some and sell em
I would keep the intro it isn’t long and it sets the tone!! Nice review!!
Couldn’t agree with you more about the windowless packaging. Another great review from my favourite RUclipsr. Great vid!
I don't why know but I like Venom to be matte finish than glossy.
Yes please make a foot pack for this venom the toes are really unappealing. I don't skip the intro i like it, even if I didn't like it I think it's short enough to not be an issue
This Venom looks really cool, Knull too, but honestly for the price this pack is selling in my country I'll rather buy a bootleg or loose Venom figure and paint it myself.
I do not skip the intro! I like the charm of it.
I hate the no windows. I called thee lady over and explained while I opened Ironspider to make sure he was in there with no issue. She said a lot of people are doing that. Good review
Oh count me in on some feet!
I NEVER skip the intro... Catchie beat
I'd be down for a head and feet option. Maybe make a closed mouth head that just looks better in general. Don't like how his eyes look on the closed mouth, but I do generally prefer a closed mouth Venom figure, and so far no company seems to know how to make a closed mouth Venom (or open mouth without the tongue) except for the movie Venom.
Closed mouth, but with some red coming through on the sides.
The packaging situation is rife for fraud. Its like they had no foresight.
I know a few have commented on his feet, especially the movie version. The thing is, this venom is based off of art of Ryan Stegman. If you look at his art, he draws venom with the toes.
Intros are awesome and yes, if you made regular feet for venom I’d buy them.
Man, Bagley head and feet pack would be awesome
Would absolutely buy replacement feet and a Ryan Stegman styled head from you. Would love it if you did hole fillers for the back too since I don't see myself using the wings all too much.
@ 11:22 yep thats what she said...🤣
Clean review tho bruh...and I never skip anyone's intro...EVER.

I like the intro on the video, gives it an extra touch.
I don't skip the intro. Its not too long, its just right as far as the time goes. And I like the classic game menu aesthetic a lot.
Thanks
Love the intro i dont skip it has a very retro feel to it
Putting the recycle aspect to one side the new packaging eliminates in box collecting and it looks cheap but prices are rising for me its always been about the display aspect in box but with these that value has been lost.
I used to skip
Until I realized it was only a few seconds long. One of my favorite parts is how you have him on the spinning stand. When I skip it I miss most of that part. That’s why I don’t anymore
I don't skip the intro, I like it a lot.
I never skip the intro, it’s short enough. I sometimes hum along with it lol
Being honest, I love your intro, sometimes I skip it and go straight to the video because I see the intro every time but most of the time I let it play.
Also I always skip the intro, but I do agree that it gives the video a more finished look
Great review but one question why do you knock down McFarlane figures about proportions of the whole body but did not mention one time one these? Knull neck is super long not even proportion right...

I normally watch the intro, there's a new comic book Venon being released with regular feet and head so I don't need new ones.
I like this two pack and I agree with your critics.
Thanks for the review Anthony.
No window is a horrible idea. You can end up buying it only for the figure to have a really bad QC issue like bad paint/printing.
I skip alot of intros and yours are quick so I don't skip them.
I like the intro, and I feel the same as you about not having windows
You are the best action figure reviewer. You keep it real. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for watching
A lot of plastic isn't recyclable. The recycling logo on plastics was an industry scam to mislead consumers. And most plastics that are recyclable don't get recycled because it costs less to use new plastic. Five to ten percent gets recycled in North America.
Respect to Hasbro for trying and hopefully learning how to get back to using more renewable packaging like toy companies did pre-60s. I don't recall anyone ever complaining about Transformers Masterpiece or Titans not coming in windowed boxes.
I always watch the intro, it’s short but adds to the quality imo
I’m happy that we got this pack but my only gripes are that i wished they could of had the dragon logos tail asymmetrical and straight down the middle and VENOMS AXE/SWORD COMBO FUSION FROM MJOLNIR/SurfersBoard hybrid weapon to combat KNULLS ALLBLACK NECROSWORD INSTEAD OF THE WINGS
Windowless packaging is a crock. They say it's "for the environment", but you're right in that the plastic window is just as recyclable as anything else. It's another cost cutting move. It's cheaper for them to do it this way or you better believe they wouldn't be doing it. I'm sure they knew there would be backlash over it, but they knew people would ultimately buy anyway. A bean counter at Hasbro learned that it would be .018% cheaper to produce these if they took away the customer's ability to SEE what they are buying.....so here we are.
I never skip the intro.
1:04 you just end the debate wether they should use full on cardboard or plastic window in a quick sentence lol. Bandai Tamashii Nation (shfiguart) still use plastic window & iirc, Japan has the best recycling rate. Hmm, something is not quite right here...
