It's not often that I would create a whole post to highlight a tiny 1.5" metal figurine, but it's pretty rare in this age of collectors that a character gets merchandised for the first time ever after 28 years. Agony is a symbiote in Spider-Man comics that first appeared in 1993; the same issue that debuted Scream, Riot, Phage, and Lasher (the entire Life Foundation), Venom: Lethal Protector #4. Agony was always my favorite with her multi-hued purple and her acid-spitting powers. But for some reason, she never had a toy made. She was notoriously absent from the 1996 Planet of the Symbiotes ToyBiz line when the rest of her team debuted. And she's never received any merchandising since. Not a single HeroClix, Mini-mate, or Funko Pop. Until I recently discovered her in this huge multipack. Yes, I'm aware she is simply a repaint of the Scream we got last year, but I'm still ridiculously happy to own this. And hopefully it will inspire that long overdue Legends figure. Let's check out Agony below!
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Agony with the Scream Nano from Series 3 (2020).
And here is the entire lineup from the Series 6 set: Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulkbuster, Hawkeye, Armored Hulk, Korg, Spider-Man, Miles Morales, Mornius, Fraven the Hunter, Agony, Riot, Star-Lord, Gamora, Drax, Groot, Ant-Man, Wasp, and Cosmic Ghost Rider.
And here are my symbiotes so far: Carnage v2, Venom, Scream, Riot v2, Superior Venom, Agony, Riot, and Carnage.
This set also include redecos of Wasp and Gamora. Here are comparisons with their previous figures.
Cheers!
