Other than Thanos, each statue is lacking in the calves department. Very noticeable with Hulk and Venom. Even Thor needs bigger calves.

IMO, the sculptors on this line need to do some tweaks there.

This is where I landed. And I tend to love Venom statues.

He is pretty much the only regular sized human represented. Everyone else are giant god-like beings.

Glad I hadn't picked up any of the others Venoms even though Prime 1s was tempting cause this will be my one & only Venom.

I think he meant just the base because Cyclops’s sits so low in comparison to the other’s bases. If his base were raised he’d look a little larger, but still smaller overall which is accurate

If anything Thanos is undersized.

Eh, I’m trying to stay away from 1/3 but again, I really like what I’m seeing. I could do without Knull on the base though.

Yeah not digging it.That base is a bit awkward and the various heads don't look top notch .

Very meh, these super tall bases just look annoying and unnecessary. Thor was really unique, but forced them to make similarly tall bases for the line and I hate all of them. Hulk has a cool option to make it shorter. The pose and base for Venom makes this an easy pass. Way better 1/4 versions out there.

anybody else dislike walls on bases? it seems a lot of collectors now want the base to "tell a story" but i think it makes for a cluttered statue and eliminates the silhouette of the character. i dont really like the rest of the base either but that wall just seems really unnecessary imo

Gotta agree. I don't like the proportions or pose. Venom 'standing tall' just doesn't work for me.
