I also think people expect too much when something is announced. Now if it doesn't meet your fancy for the price that's fine but artistically and design wise the statue is fine.
Gotta agree.

Not saying it couldn't be better or that I'm buying, and I do think Venom looks better than Spidey here, and the price may not be worthwhile, but...

this is the kind of statue that I tend to appreciate, regarding Spider-man. Spider-man is one of, if not THE BEST example of possible, unique poses, in the history of fictional characters. Very few characters move like him. Personally, all my statues of Spider-man, and those I will continue to consider, have that element in common.

As great as the sculpt and paint on SS Back in Black is, for example, I would not want it, as that pose would work for so many characters and isn't distinctly identifiable as Spider-man.

I never understand SS. The last Venom PF skin texture was rough as avocado and this one smooth as wax. Can we get something in between? But regardless I really like this one

Not bad, but I don’t know...I’ll wait for more photos and the price (which I’m expecting the worse) before judging this fully.

I feel like it could work, but I have the impression, that it's working from very specific angles and views. But the concern is that in person, you see all angles at once, so you lose that specific pane view that could be what looks cool together in these pictures. Definitely need more pictures to be sure.

I think the pose choice is great.

I can imagine this displayed up high, right at the edge so Spidey is literally hanging over the edge of the shelf....i think it'll look pretty damn good.

After a lot of knee up poses i personally applaud SS for trying something so different and dynamic.
