LEGO Super Heroes: Spider-Mech vs Venom

Cross Posted to BrickSet

The Builds

Venom

The main attraction of this set, I find Venom to be a fine build. He is satisfactorily bulky, towering over the accompanying Spider-Mech. The designers put this bulk is put to good use by having a minimum of exposed anti-studs, lots of interesting sub-builds and a fantastic color scheme!

Venom has anti-studs are exposed in two highly visible locations, under the forearms and on the inner sides of Venom's thighs. Even then, they don’t take away from the look of the kit. The exposed surfaces are in black, the arms are usually posed so under-arms will be hidden and the thighs have inverted slope pieces used to help give the legs shape.
