One of the breakout stars of Guardians of the Galaxy 2 was Baby Groot, the adorable tiny tree creature with attitude. Venom is one of Spider-Man’s most famous and fearsome enemies, finally breaking out in his own movie in 2018’s Venom. Now, fans can see what happens when someone puts these two characters together.
Hot Toys has done exactly that with the release of its upcoming Venomized Groot figurine. The figure stands at 25cm or 9.8 inches, which is accurate with the life-size standing of Baby Groot. There are also multiple interchangeable pieces that depict Baby Groot in various stages of being taken over by the symbiote. Some of the coolest parts include Groot’s fingers changed into claws and attachable venus fly traps.
The figure is inspired by the animated series Spider-Man: Maximum Venom, in which Venom plans a symbiote invasion to take over everyone on Earth. The figurine was revealed at Hot Toys Summer Showcase earlier this year and is available for pre-order now with a release date set for late 2021-early 2022.
Fans will have to wait a bit longer for Baby Groot or Venom to appear on screen again. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is confirmed to be in the works but will be a while longer thanks to Director James Gunn being focused on the upcoming The Suicide Squad. Venom: Let There Be Carnage is also in development but has been pushed back to 2021 thanks to the pandemic. Whether the two characters will crossover on-screen is unlikely thanks to rivaling studio rights, but this Venomized Groot gives a good idea of what the results could be.
