LEGO Marvel 76187 Venom bust revealed by German retailer

A German retailer has revealed the first images of LEGO Marvel 76187 Venom, an almost carbon-copy model of 76199 Carnage.

Evidence of a Venom bust has been stacking up for a while, but Lucky Bricks has now given us our first official look at this year’s second 18+ Marvel model, which follows fairly definitively in the footsteps of the already-revealed Carnage bust.

In fact, aside from Venom’s protruding tongue, the only real difference we can spot between these two models is the colour scheme. (That must have been a pretty easy assignment for one designer.) And that means they both come in at relatively similar piece counts: 76187 Venom has 565 bricks, while 76199 Carnage includes 546 elements.

You can also expect their price tags to match – at least in Europe, where you’ll need to part with €59.99 to pick up either symbiote. If the same holds true worldwide, 76187 Venom should retail for £54.99 and $59.99 in the UK and US respectively.

There’s no word yet on when 76187 Venom will arrive at LEGO.com, but a safe bet would be May, in line with 76199 Carnage. The box art for both sets bills them as ‘assembled from the Spider-Man universe’, a phrase which here means ‘inspired by Venom: Let There Be Carnage’, Andy Serkis’s supervillain sequel that’s due to debut in September.
