Re: Sideshow/ Olivetti - Venom Comiquette

Lol in the garden of unreachable for me. Theres a few on ebay. Big chunk of change though.

Venom is so much better in hand...I was able to score a reg earlier this year for a great price. Keep looking, and you might find one, too.

Key word is might. Venom isn't going for sale as often as it used to

My last grail piece I want....so close yet so so far away. What are the chances we will get any Venom pieces this cool in the next 5 years?

Re: Sideshow/ Olivetti - Venom Comiquette

the funny thing is so many people panned this when it first came out, complaining about the paint job, pose etc etc.

look at it now.

It's a fantastic piece. I love Venom but wasn't sure about this considering the price and thought about maybe just getting the Koto 1/6 instead. But I'm so glad I went for this, it's stunning and it goes perfectly with the Spidey comi. Best representation of the character so far and I'm guessing that won't change for a while. I got mine from a boardie to a fair and reasonable price but it's still a big lump of money of course so priorities have to be made.. But it's worth it

Yeah ive seen him go for a min of $900. Now that i have a house and further more a wife its impossible to justify a purchase like that lol. $900 is about a third of a vacation or half my mortgage. Ha ha it just aint happening. Sucks cause its one of the best pieces ever made.

I've purchased some expensive grails from members that allowed me to make multiple payments. Don't ask won't know.

Congrats I am glad I made got my not too long ago as well. It was worth the price I paid imo. I knew that one day I may not be able to own it if I didn't jump on it at the time I did it was worth the sacrifices that I've had to make to get it. Now all I need it the Spidey Comiquette which may be out of my reach with the price its at now. But who knows maybe the wifey may consider and all me to get it for my birthday in Jan

whats really funny is how often that happens to most pieces, only later to see it become highly sought after or even reaching "Grail" status

I thought there were only 3-4 of us that were critical of it, and still are today. I still hate the pose and prefer the Bagley look to Venom over the slop look so prevalent today.

I like the original McFarlane look the best, personally. I wasn't a big fan of this com based on sideshow's pics. But, after seeing it in hand, it is so much better than I first thought. I now whole heartedly recommend this one...besides, when will we see another venom?
