by TJ Norris Spider-Man's fearsome foes might seem deadly, but in Minimates form they promise only smiles. In this four-pack available from our friends at the Big Bad Toy Store, we can re-experience the realm of wacky wonder aloud through characters that have endured the years.
Included are: Carnage (making his first re-appearance in more than a decade), Doc Ock (look at those metallic extensions!), Sandman (gotta love the sandcastle-like base and big block arms) and the classic Lizard (our favorite slithery amhibious foe). They come with a plethora of accessories to swap out and these are just plainly, the bomb.
Carnage almost has a grafitti rorschach-test imprint, and wild claws in a fierce red. This photo from Flikr shows he can balance on a single foot! His unmasked head accessory makes for an easy swap - and provides levels of crazy to this evil grinning mastermind! You can change the Lizard into Curt Connors in a snap. All-in-all these are playfully colorful and a perfect addition to your collection, especially if you have the earlier set from Spider-Man 2. From Diamond Toys. Collect 'Em All!
