![]() ![]() ![]() If the Venom symbiotic attached itself to a super-buff Porky Pig, Pork Grind is what you’d get. If I never thought we’d see a ML Spider-Ham, my jaw just about fell straight through the floor when I realized we’d be able to make a Pork Grind figure. While we don’t get any actual accessories for Spider-Ham himself, we do get two pieces for two other figures: the huge upper torso that’s the largest part of the Monster Venom Build-A-Figure, as well as a head to create Peter Porker’s arch-nemesis: the Swinester Six’s Pork-Grind. He’s perfectly sized and scaled at just about 3” tall, too. The proportions on this figure are also ace, as Spider-Ham looks like the wacky, zany cartoon-like character that he is. Even the webs and spider logo are sculpted on-all details we often don’t get with figures that share tooling. His eyes and nostrils are raised and sculpted, not just painted, and he’s got an adorable little mouth sculpted under his snout. Venom Legends Spider-Ham is a 100% unique sculpt, and Hasbro makes excellent use of that fact. ![]() The wide range of head and upper torso articulation gives Peter Porker plenty of personality, and you might be surprised by how well the swivel wrists work in making this figure to life. That’s 10 points of articulation-awful by Legends standards, but better than a lot of other figures on the market.Īnd honestly, the upper body articulation isn’t all that bad. And while it’s definitely not ideal, it’s also not as bad as it seems: The Gentle Giant Spider-Ham mini bust from a few years back is one of my favorite products they’ve ever made, and I legit never expected that we’d see another licensed Spider-Ham collectible released.īut as soon as I walked into the Hasbro booth at New York Toy Fair 2018, my eyes lit up when I saw a certain anthropomorphic pig and I made a beeline for the display of Venom Marvel Legends.Īt a glance, I immediately knew plenty of folks were gonna be scandalized by the articulation scheme on this action figure. ![]() As an 80s baby, I’ve loved Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham, for pretty much my whole life. ![]()
