What happens when you combine the cutest hero in the Marvel Universe with one of Spider-Man's worst enemies? You get the Venomized Baby Groot figure from Hot Toys, of course. Hot Toys has just revealed the newest addition to its ever-growing lineup of Marvel figures, and it's safe to say this is one of their most unusual releases ever. Inspired by the animated series Spider-Man: Maximum Venom, this life-size figure depicts Groot bonding with the Venom symbiote and becoming a fearsome yet still adorable little monster. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=this-venomized-baby-groot-figure-is-adorably-deadly&captions=true"] Venomized Baby Groot measures in at 25 cm (or about 9.8 inches) tall and includes several interchangeable pieces allowing collectors to switch between a fully Venomized Groot or a half-and-half approach. The figure also includes a trio of Venus fly trap accessories and a dynamic display base. Venomized Baby Groot isn't available for pre-order just yet, but it's slated for release in late 2021 or early 2022. Hot Toys has plenty other Spider-Man figures in the pipeline over the next couple years, inspired by both the PS4 game and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Several of those figures were on display at SideshowCon in July. It remains to be seen if the company will announce other Venomized Marvel figures to accompany Baby Groot.

Not to be outdone, Hasbro is releasing its own Clone Wars-inspired Ahsoka figure as part of a Walmart-exclusive wave of Star Wars: The Black Series figures.
