    I LOVE THIS FIGURE! Both Modes Are BADASS! Alternators Feel to it. Great Detail in Both Modes and Lots of Articulation and Missile Launchers. My Video Review is here...

    I think the idea was cool, venom is o.k., not as good as I was hoping, Spider-man looks silly. But I gotta say, ironman, hulk and venom are going to be great to kitbash with. Thank you for the review though.

    $15 like the Star Wars ones since they are inbetween Deluxe and Voyager Size.

    Also, do you happen to have Botcon 2008 Rodimus? They'd look boss together.

    Looks great with Big Daddy/Cyb Downshift mold, even if they are a little out of scale to each other.

    I wonder how he compares with an Alternator? Thanks for the review Sean. Excellent as always.

    Thanks for all the pictures !! It might look good next to any Alternators for the size comparison...
    As of the robot mode, it doesn't look impressive at all... Are there any more pics that 'd show the truth of its articulations ?

    You can see his articulation here...


    THANKS EVERYONE! I hope I don't seem like a Bad Fan but I don't have any Alternators yet I want to get them. There is so many lines of Transformers!

    Man, that vehicle mode is awesome as exploding shit, it almost makes up for that terrible bot mode.

    I might get it just because of the car mode and, it's Venom.:p

    Compared to an Alternator? This? I don't know, to me the thing that makes Alternators what they are is the realistic interior, and being able to open the doors and hood and stuff independent of the transformation scheme. A realistic exterior, hell, the movie toys do that too, and they are nifty for their own reasons, but Alternators they ain't.

    crossover venom review

    Pics will be added later
    start with pros

    Great size. i thought hed be smaller. very happy with the size. the painting details are great. the car mode just screams venom. the mix of black purple and white are awesome.
    alt mode is nice and tight very solid. looks very intemidating.
    transformation. well i needed the instructions for once so that is good. its a logical transformeation but also and interesting one. i really like how the hood and arms from the upper body. the legs are a basic flip of the car and sliding of the rear panel to reveal more leg detail. The hands of the figure are fantastic. lots of details. Now for my Favorite Part.
    THE ROBOT HEAD IS AMAZING. every little detail shows just how much this is a venom character and as the same time shows he is a mech suit. the metallic tongue is I think a great additions. he just looks like he is ready to deal some serious pain.

    cons
    not as articulated in the arms and legs as i would have hoped for. The hands do move but the fingers are always straight.The biggest problem i had was that i cant get the waist to connect properly. dont know if im missing a astep but the little piece that is supposed to move up to allow the waist to snap in apprears to be to big to move in like it should. tried it five times and will try again after work.
    so there is my my mini review. pics up later.

    The waist issue is tough to figure out, you've got to tilt the hip/crotch forward to get the chest post to go in. Then the legs have to go backwards one notch. Venom and Spiderman from these Marvel crossovers are, for me, the two weakest of them. But Venom does have a really sweet alt mode. I'd take Spidey back, but cuz Venom is so cool, he needs his arch-rival to fight, so Spidey stays.

    Ditto on the waist problems. Venom suffers from poor engineering but is a fun design
