Includes Symbiotic Wall-Crawler Launching Attack Arms
The most alien-looking of all the symbiotes, Riot is a frightening creature to behold! Moving more like an insect than a man, Riot is never truly at rest, shifting from foot-to-foot even while standing! Although he is unrelenting in a fight, Riot shows little interest in the affairs of humanity. Rarely speaking, he prefers to roam the countryside and disappear for days at a time. And since the identity of his host is unknown, Riot is one symbiote whose mystery is yet to unravel.
GOD I love this figure! Little bit of trivia for you, Riot the figure is actually the name sake for the comic character. Yeah, the only ones with official names are Lasher and Scream.

I think my favorite part of the figure is it's legs, which are jointed at the hips, knees, and ankles. It crouches at 6 inches but when fully stood up he can go alongside your 10 inch Marvel Universe figures. His paint and sculpt are pretty cool, and he has an action feature that ISN'T total crud. there are two...[See More]
