A Venom mech under $15 is a good deal — and Miles gets to show up too. Solid little set that punches above its price tag without pretending to be more than it is.
Is the price fair?BFair for what's here — two characters, a mech, and change left over from a twenty.
Will you love it?B-Quick build, fun theme, but don't expect to revisit the instructions on this one.
Holds its value?CSecondary market is lukewarm — this one's a keeper only if you love it on the shelf.

The Full Take
Venom in mech form at $14.99 is a genuinely fun concept, and LEGO® mostly pulls it off. The build is quick but the mech has enough presence to feel like a complete thing rather than a half-measure. Miles Morales is a welcome inclusion — two minifigs at this price range is a win. The articulation won't blow anyone away, but for a Marvel set aimed at the shelf above a kid's desk, it works. Where it stumbles is in staying power: the mold-heavy mech design doesn't offer much for a builder to chew on, and the secondary market isn't likely to reward patience. Buy it for the fun of it, not for what it might become.
