In addition to the black paint the rest of the figure has, the inside of his mouth is painted pink and the eyes are a pearlescent white. The teeth are sculpted, his large eyes are recessed a bit, and you can see a tongue or tendons in his mouth. Unlike the old ToyBiz figures, the head sculpt seems to be based directly on Mark Bagley’s artwork, and it looks great. If this were any other figure that would bother me, but it blends right in with Carnage’s design so you wouldn’t notice unless you’re really trying. I find some spots of paint on my figure have either chipped off or were missed at the factory, and there is even a splotch of paint on his chest where there shouldn’t be.

The entire figure is cast in red plastic, with his black lines painted on. He also has an elaborate bundle of tentacles that can be plugged into his back. The tentacles are nicely sculpted with lots of twists and loops, some ending in blades.

What are new are the tentacled forearms and lower legs as well as the clawed hands and of course, the head. (Isn’t it kind of weird that the name of the figure isn’t really on the packaging prominently?)Ĭarnage shares his core body with a few other figures, so he doesn’t have the slimy details sculpted in like the old ToyBiz figures – most of him is just a typical superhero-muscular body.

The box features artwork of Spider-Man on the left and right sides, and the back shows a picture of the figure plus its counterpart in a variant case assortment (in this case Toxin), as well as showing the rest of the figures in this series and the completed Build-A-Figure, Ultimate Green Goblin. So you could put the figure back inside for display, if you’re into that sort of thing. Because of this, you don’t have to destroy the packaging when you open it as with a blister card. Like Hasbro’s Star Wars Black Series, Marvel Legends Infinite Series figures come in window box packaging. So now Hasbro has a new Carnage, and it’s the Carnage I always wanted, or close enough that I can’t complain. So wait, I had 3 chances and I never managed to get him? Well, whether ToyBiz or Hasbro was in charge, Marvel Legends has always had spotty distribution, and it was easy to miss original characters in those Spider-Man lines when most of what you saw on the pegs were things like Scuba Splash Spider-Man. It appeared again in a Spider-Man’s Fearsome Foes box set, and again in a later Spider-Man series, with a different deco and/or head sculpt each time. ToyBiz made a Carnage around 10 years ago for their Marvel Legends-like Spider-Man line. I managed to collect the rest of the Maximum Carnage series, and eventually got my hands on Carnage’s earlier appearances, so I’ve always wanted a good Carnage figure. Aren’t second chances great? A figure you missed out on gets rereleased, retooled, redecoed or remade and… well, hopefully you can find it this time.Īmazing Spider-Man #379 was the first Marvel comic book I ever bought, being drawn in by Mark Bagley’s cover art.
