Premium Format New Sideshow Venom PF

[Asdf]

Man, both looks good. Venom is just that good looking. So if you had to choose one, which would it be?

No problem!

Both are excellent but I think the XM wins in the end. The size,McFarlane sculpt,glossyness of the mouths are great on XM's. Sideshows pose kills XMs though,it looks way more dynamic in hand,also the tongue out head is more my style. Body texture is a little much on SS's. XM looks more comic while SS's looks more "real". Bottom line I could never get rid of either!

Still prefer XM Venom way more, but for half the price I would easily go with Sideshow.

Got venom in! #375of 1000. Only problem on the gum by one tooth missing a tiny bit of paint. Don't think it's anything to hit up sideshow about.

Can you send a photo of the tooth?

I prefer the McFarlane head of the XM and the tongue head of the Sideshow.

I wouldn't even bother with that. These are things I see on some of my pieces once in a while and have to 'talk myself down from.' I figured they're all hand painted, and if anything on this, I'd argue it's his spit.

Lol Yeah same, had to talk myself down. Then I was thinking could get 20 bucks off a order! [emoji23]

I'd definitely try to ask Sideshow and get them to weigh in. It can't hurt, but honestly, don't sweat it.

the tongue head on the XM is just awful imo. I took a few pics with it on when I first got it, but will never see the day of light again if it stays in my collection for the long term.

Yeah, for me it's only OK when he's placed at either side angle. From the front it is awful, way too thin and the teeth don't look good either.

Thinking of getting SS spider-man to go with venom now!

You don't have Spidey yet???

Awwww, man. You NEED Spidey. He's the best of the bunch, IMO. Venom came out great, but Spidey is a must. Very dynamic pose that translated very well into sculpt.

I'm in the minority, but the tongue head is the ONLY one I display. I'm in love it, far more than the other two. I like the proportions on it. The 'warped' look makes him more sinister IMO.

Most likely will get spidey. Will wait till my venom points come in, then I'll have about sideshow bucks 120
