it's time for absolute cottage
hey guys me ho superstar thank you very much to your new look what i got it's carnage this is
absolute carnage from the from the latest comic book absolute garnish numbers one through four
i've got the um the omnibus one to read i still haven't read it yeah i'm a little bit behind
but i will be reading it very soon my understanding is is that basically
uh carnage is mass killing the other symbiote hosts so he's got a brainwashed army of symbiotes
basically at his disposal and i believe the this is the precursor to what's coming with black king
or king in black which is the god of can all come into earth that's my understanding and that
starts this december so i need to read absolute carriage before then so it is on my read list
and it's part of the new venom wave that we've got and it's a great looking carnage
so i thought we'd get the old carnages out and we'd do some side by sides and we'll also have
a bit of head swapping fun as you guys know i'd love to do that and we'll also take a look at
other previous carnages with these heads on and vice versa if you enjoyed this review guys at
least really check out my other reviews from this wave i have reviewed so far the the uh venom pool
and also the um movie version of venom both of those reviews are on the channel right now next
up that i'll be doing will be the morbius figure so come back for morbius can't wait to do the ball
base review right guys so this is carnage on the side of the box has a lovely picture there from
the absolute carnage uh same on that side it's got the spider logo on the top of spider-man
um it's coming under the venom uh sort of logos here for marvel legends
new uh new uh sort of font on the front and a new font on the back when it comes to the writer with
a lovely action figure display there and on the back it states twisted criminal cletus cassidy
so is chaos in the streets as the bloodthirsty villain carnage weird choice of words but let's
go ahead and break carnage out of the packaging guys you'll be glad to know because i know some
of you are commenting and stuff on it we have gone back to the old street scene diorama that
you're all loving to see and we will be bringing back the muppets uh laboratories in due time
uh the muppet labs are currently overgoing a little bit of a re-haul a rehab we currently
don't need them for this review because there's no weapons or anything in the carnage review so
we won't be needing them right now but in future reviews keep a look out for our muppet returning
choice on whether we're going to just be whether we'll be making a more supersorrell channel so
you guys can get more videos because this channel will basically be the main review channel where
all max figure reviews will be as normal like you get now and then the supersorrell 2 channel
and i'm tempted to make will feature all the other stuff that i can't fit on here like mystery boxes
um blind bags and vlogs toy hunts um conventions uh things like my action figure customs that i
want to do all that kind of good stuff mine but disappear from here and go to a secondary channel
just where i've got more space to be able to put those things uh but i'll be discussing that in the
near future real soon but guys for now we have a very cool looking carnage i'm loving that new head
with the the big swirl in the front i love that so that's definitely based on absolute carnage
and then they've given us a secondary head as well if i just remove that one
they have given us a more classic carnage head as well to pop on here to give the more classic
carnage look i'm loving all these tendrils and stuff and the back piece here does come off
so you can take that away if you wanted to but it does look cool having them coming up like that
the finger itself is beautiful i love how they made it it's so nice we'll take a closer look at
all the head sculpts when we get down to the desk cam but for now we'll pop on the back the absolute
carnage head again so her head is on a ball of drains you can make him look up and down left
and right the arms do lift up that top hinge and do also rotate there's also the butterfly hinge
so you can make his arm pull backwards and forwards as well there is a double hinged
elbow here on this figure so you can get quite a lot of articulation out of this and the hands
are on ball joints as well um the crunch as well if we just move that back piece there's a
crunch piece this you can crunch in backwards and forwards quite easily as well as a waist
swiveling which is clicking into place which is nice the finger isn't getting loose either it
feels very stiff this one actually as we've got a waist wheel there his legs lift out at the side
as well as forwards backwards there's a top five cut here double hinge knees here as well
which is nice there is even a boot cut and the feet are on rockers and pivots with holes in
the bottom of the feet should you wish to use a display base with this figure that's very cool
some of the figures haven't got display i've got the holes in them the new venom figure didn't have
the holes in so that's pretty cool go ahead and put that back piece back on i do like the backpack
the back peek the backpack the back piece the way that just slots in i
think we should do more of those different variants that we could swap between figures
depending on color obviously i like those little accessory pieces again you know when they've done
the sort of deluxe figures in the past where they've given us more accessories and things
i wouldn't ever turn down a venom or a carnage in that kind of a packaging where they could give us
multiple um like arm pieces and things like like so like because i know sometimes in the comic
book things especially like carnage didn't he manipulate his body into like weapons and things
well i think riot may have done that or something but that would be cool to get
all right yeah the articulation is very cool we can get him into some very gnarly poses
um so i'm really liking that and again that head sculpt is really nice so you can hear
people in the hallway there i do apologize they are shrushing one another which is quite funny
and we don't realize how noisy they're actually being
so there's the other head sculpt that came with the figure let me just pop that on as well
i'll show you that up close a little bit so again that's a very nice sculpt
the one i am interested in seeing
i'm posting all these different head shots like i did with venom i'll be posting up
them all up on instagram to check out the instagram uh shot i put i usually
put them all together in one big shot can we get cletus cassidy head on yes we can
so we can even have the cletus cassidy head on here if we wanted to so that's very cool
and let's keep going does that one come off yeah we've got this one showing
it doesn't look right though on that
body and then we've got the old carnage what's the difference between the heads on that then so pop
that on there i don't think there is actually a difference as if oh it's just cosmetic differences
so this is the old carnage head on the body
what they've done this is the old carnage head this is the new carnage head they've actually
cram molded you know these if there's more black on the front these are actually molded on it's
not just painted on you can actually feel the nice little like they've molded the uh
the symbiote pieces like to the figure whereas on this one it's painted so it's just smooth
so you can tell the difference there's like a textual difference which is very nice so the new
one is definitely an improvement upon the old one it isn't just a repainted version of the head it
is the same mold head but they've gone ahead and added new things to it to make it more basically
so that's very cool so that again means we can then use the old this is the old symbiote
that means we can go ahead and add the old the sorry the new
absolute carnage head to the old body and that looks like this
also these are the old tendril pieces that we got from the old carnage
what i can do is take the back piece off this one
and add these ones on
to give us a little bit more so you have them facing upwards like
that's a little bit more wild if you want to take some photos
or you can have them facing down if you were doing a backwards photo that could be good
that could be a good way of hiding some of the um you know the back if you're doing like a
photography shot from the back you could hide basically the hinges with that that
would be a good way of distracting people from looking at the actual hinges on the back itself
or vice versa what you could do is you could actually have
you could take your first photo with this one on so it looks like that and then do a secondary shot
where you put the sec where you take that one off do a secondary shot in the
exact same pose with this one on right then when you do the photos if you layer them up
you should be able to layer them so that basically you have more symbols last year
you can have it actually all of them layered like that and that would look really cool on a photo
again just some just samples what you could do with this one
i'm living on this new symbiote version as well as carve carnage we do actually have
feet on this one just like they've done with the new venom from the movie they've given
this guy like like claws and feet whereas on the old carnage it was just flat-footed like
the spider-man figures and they did that with the old venoms as well they just had flat feet
i think i think the screen may be the only one that actually i know did scream my flat
feet as well i can't remember i thought scream might have actually had claws but i'm not sure
again other things we could swap around we've got the arm
the hand pieces from the old carnage obviously this new carnage comes with lots of new black
pieces to him but if you ever wanted to you could pop off the old hands
and pop the old of the older ones in which are a bit bigger so if you wanted to get like sometimes
if you wanted to do like a as if he's reaching out towards the camera or if he's reaching towards
something sometimes the bigger hand looks good cause he makes his hand look really big on camera
more monstrous and he could always put some more black shading on it
to make it look like it matches but yeah lot lots of different possibilities there
anyway i think i've waffled enough guys let's head on down to the desk cam to give you guys
an up close personal look at this figure by the way if you enjoyed me doing all those little swap
arounds and stuff i know people love when i do the head swaps and things if you enjoyed
me swapping around all the other stuff as well and showing you all the different versions of figures
you know let us know and we can do that again in future videos um i'm here to help
you to give you guys the best video possible so if you did enjoy doing that with me just
now let me know in the comments all right guys let's head on down to the desk cam
all right guys so here is absolute carnage out of the packaging i've got that old headlack on there
for the time being absolutely guys is such a cool figure he looks so cool i think he's
basically absolutely kind of anywhere definitely that one head sculptures anyway uh absolutely the
latest in the sort of carnage franchise so i think that's what most people are going to be
using that headphones that that's what's on the front cover of the of the graphic novel as well
i mean carving has always been a popular character since i remember since i grew up
in the 90s i remember carnage and venom were the two most popular characters on spider-man
especially part of the 90s cartoon as well and it's great obviously the venom versus growing
and stuff so carnage is obviously his part of his symbiote universe is growing so it's very cool to
see all these different symbiotes now all coming back they've had over the years all sort of coming
back together and we're getting some great great stories out of it especially with the like miles
morales and absolute carnage comics they look they mean they were really interesting so i have
read some of the spin-offs i just need to read some of the actual main story lines so to speak
and uh yeah i love that we had shriek in one of the comics as well
um i was intrigued in a long time so it's cool to have her back
but yeah i definitely need to grab myself the the uh well i need to sit down and read the
main the main is it for i think it's four comics in the absolute carnage series and
then there's the omnibus comic that you can pick up now on amazon but it's quite a lot of money
but it includes all the spin-offs as well could be very tempting to pick that up at some point uh but
yeah again i i love all the symbiotes and stuff you remember i did a custom symbiote a while back
but anyway guys let's take a look at this figure itself let's take a closer look so the figure
itself is beautifully crafted i'm loving all these new black so our streamers they've added to the
actual costume uh that that just gives it more depth and layers and stuff it's not just painted
on it's actually sculpted to the body which just makes the figure seem very different in comparison
to the older ones that we've had of this figure really makes them stand out as well the colors
really go together it's a really vibrant red that's on there i'm not sure if it's picking
out power just how red that is but compared to the backdrop is a very deep red which is so good
i think i'm loving all these little tendril bits and things coming off of him they're very cool
the symbiote bits yeah such a nice figure let's go ahead and put the other head back on for a second
yeah i'll definitely be using that head when i display this carnage
but if we zoom out a little bit guys and i can bring in some other figures
as well for us to compare them to side by sides there is with my custom punisher
there's the previous version of carnage and another custom as well i've got my scarlet carnage
from the kit bash king himself
so yes are very cool figures they've done a very good job um bringing this new one to life it does
look completely different to the other figures so i don't feel as cheated like i've just picked
up another version of the figure it is another carnage but it's a different variation and version
so i'm glad to see that if you enjoyed all the head swapping fun make sure you tune
into instagram because i'll post a picture of all the different head swaps on there as
