As a huge collector of mainly Star Wars merchandise, I understand when a reviewer might complain about something nitpicky, like the other

Spider-man 3 Venom figures being purple (instead of black, like from the comics) or with the limited ones having the taped-up packaging. Whereas the other Venom figures in the series have a goofy purple color to them, this Venom is black. I bought one to open up and one to display, and the figure itself, while not featuring all the articulation of some other figures in the Marvel series, is very detailed and has no problems standing up, even while holding his weapon. The packaging (from the front, at least) is beautiful and looks great on my shelf with my other figures. The only problem, which was mentioned in a review for the limited Spider-Man Symbiote figure was that the packaging is taped together instead of glued shut. The back of the package looks almost as if it's been resealed. If every one of these has been issued this way, then there's no way around it and I wouldn't imagine the value of the figure would be hurt. If this was a problem with one wave of the figures (if there will be another wave since this is a limited edition) then a lot of collectors will be upset.

My son loved this venom; very true to form. It does have limited mobility, but who cares, it looks cool and the packaging is great if you are a collector.

This is the way Venom should have been done in the first place without it being a Wal-Mart exclusive. It's color accurate and just looks better. I had one problem with mine though. I have 3 of these and opened one, the paint they use to get that shiny look chips of easy so, for kids I would be careful but, for collectors..I would highly reccomend this. Get one before it's gone, these are very limited edition and once they are gone they are gone for good.
