El Venenoide (Chase) (Metallic)
Description
El Venenoide from the 2021 Marvel Lucha Libre Edition Soda line stood out as a low-run release limited to just 2500 pieces, making it a strong target for collectors who focused on scarcity and character mashups. This Funko Soda SODA Canister release featured the villainous luchador in a confident, squared‑up pose, fists clenched and eyes narrowed, with an aggressive expression and extended tongue that echoed his symbiote inspiration. The optional Chase Metallic sticker on select cans signaled an added layer of rarity that collectors actively sought out for long‑term display value.
As a Funko Soda figure, El Venenoide came packaged in a stylized SODA Canister bearing his character art and product name, protecting the figure for either in‑box storage or shelf display. The sculpt showed his masked luchador look in black and silver gear, with gray patterning on the boots and knee pads, a chest emblem shaped like a stylized spider, and a bold red tongue emerging from the mask for extra visual impact. The compact Soda format made it suitable for collectors who preferred smaller, uniform display footprints compared with standard vinyl figures.
Within the broader Marvel Lucha Libre Edition line, El Venenoide represented the fusion of classic Marvel themes with lucha libre aesthetics, giving fans a variant of familiar characters reimagined as masked wrestlers. The Soda category complemented traditional POP! Vinyl by offering a can-based blind pull format, often with limited runs and chase variants that drove focused set building. For collectors concentrating on 2021 Marvel Lucha Libre Edition releases or on rare Soda SODA Canister figures, El Venenoide fit cleanly into both a Marvel display and a dedicated Funko Soda lineup.
