Love the group shots griffon! I think that is one of the funnest things about this hobby - team building.

Yeah the change in arm position for A. Venom is disappointing. I wonder if the people approving it didn't want an aiming pose. Too bad. Similar to ArtFx DP...no shooting pose.

Hey kudos to the sculptor/s though...great trigger finger discipline! Oh but wait..do the pistolas come out of the holster? Shouldn't they be empty or does he usually carry 4?

The age of Men is over. The time of the geek has come!

Regarding Spidey, thanks guys.

Agent Venom's change of pose could be the licensors decision. Maybe there were balancing/leaning issues too. I agree that the older pose looked better but unless the figure's secured to a base i predict it falling over.

Flash usually carries several armaments, a Multi-Gun, or symbiote generated weaponry.

Also they surely increased their ArtFX+ prices from $59.99 to $64.99. After Spider-Gwen, they also opened the pre-order of Agent Venom with that price. Surely it becomes much sensible option to buy the remaining pieces (2099, Carnage and Venom) from Japanese sites rather than US considering the slight price advantage and most importantly the chance to get them earlier than their US release.

Spider-Man turned out great. The magnets are strong! He can be hung upside down without falling!

The change of pose was because of licensor feedback not because of any leaning/balancing issues.

Alright, so Spider-man is getting delivered next week Tuesday. I'll finally get to see this in hand.

FYI, be careful! The paint comes off the base really easy.

Mine is in my Pile of Loot at BBTS. Going to wait and see if my SH Figuarts Suicide Squad Harley gets in stock and if anything I'll just have this shipped in the beginning of Feb if they don't get it stock to ship at the same time.
