And after a leak last night of all the figures basically confirmed the series, Hasbro has reinforced that confirmation themselves in today’s Fan First Friday (Tuesday) livestream. When we saw the Venomized Spider-Gwen (Gwenom) and Miles Morales Spider-Man figures at Toy Fair (plus the Walmart Exclusive Venomized Captain America figure), the writing was on the wall that a new Venom series was on the way. Given the success and popularity of the 2018 Marvel Legends Venom Series of figures with the Monster Venom BAF (and Spider-Ham!), there was little doubt we’d get a Marvel Legends Venom 2 wave of figures to celebrate the second movie (which has now been delayed from October 2020 to June 2021 by the pandemic). ![]()
