I hesitate to say 3P when the sculpt is a direct rip with the surface smoothed, and the accessories and patented joints are duplicated. Still very high effort and quality. Superior looks phenomenal and I feel it may have enough new to earn that 3P. I believe they are fully sculpting a Venom.

Mess Toys Black Suit Neighbor being a fancy copy of Yamaguchi Spidey. They traced it! Like Greg Land! Or probably 3D scanned it. Maybe. The anatomy softened a bit, which I think looks great since it was quite severe. The spider logos and patches on the hands are great and the eyes are so well done on both heads that they may be my favorite black costume heads I’ve ever had. So I am praising them and calling them dirty tracers at the same time! I dunno. 3P vs KO can be murky.

I wish someone would do a good, proper early McFarlane Venom. The creepy smile was always more unnerving than the giant tongue/teeth. The Select is about as close as we have ever got but it is over sized and has articulation issues.

The Venom wave of Marvel Legends had a nice McFarlane-esque Venom, with a matching Eddie Brock head

Still big teeth. I want the normal teeth/creepy grin look. Also Hasbro has never made a Venom figure the right size.

Yeah I remember it. Just not what I want. The Eddie head is pretty close to Todd's art though.
