"Looks dope: https://www.actionfigure411.com/marvel/marvel-legends-red-hulk-black-costume-spider-man-754.php"
"If you’re going for Mac Gargan Venom, the deluxe version would be the closest."
"Marvel Selects is better and cheaper."
"The AI Iron Man figure from the Mr. Hyde wave is cheap and comes with a regular helmet."

"They are fully 3rd Party figures."
"I can give you a deal on the Make Toys version"
"Maketoys Computron."
"Its a fun set but just need to buy a 3D printed hand clip that attaches to strafe/jet because 90% of the time due to the material it breaks."
