LEGO's Marvel display-bust line has covered plenty of heroes and villains, but Sony's take on Venom hadn't gotten the minifigure treatment until now. Confirmed via Brickset's official announcement cross-referenced with Brick Fanatics and The Brick Fan, LEGO's Venom Bust (set 76356) released July 1, 2026, and includes the brand's first-ever Sony-style Venom minifigure alongside the display bust itself.
If you've already picked this one up over the past few weeks, or you're just catching up on what shipped, here's what's actually in the box and how to think about displaying and protecting both pieces.
Brickset, Brick Fanatics, and The Brick Fan's coverage confirms the following:
LEGO has built Venom minifigures into other Marvel sets before, but this is specifically the character's first appearance modeled after Sony's live-action Venom films rather than the comic or animated designs used previously. For collectors focused on Sony's Venom continuity specifically, that makes this bust a more significant pickup than a typical display-only release, since the included minifigure is a genuinely new variant rather than a repeat of an existing mold.
Beyond the minifigure, the bust itself is built around Venom's signature muscular, veined look, with a removable tongue piece that lets builders adjust the model's expression after assembly. The nameplate built into the pedestal, plus the option to display the included minifigure right alongside the completed bust, gives the set a more complete shelf presentation than a standalone bust would offer on its own.
With a display bust and a separately significant minifigure both included in the same set, it's worth having protection ready for both rather than just the larger piece.
For the assembled bust itself, EVORETRO's acrylic modular case gives a flexible, dust-free enclosure sized to accommodate a display piece like this.
For keeping the first-ever Sony Venom minifigure protected and visible on its own, EVORETRO's LEGO minifigure display case is purpose-built for exactly this kind of standalone minifigure presentation.

It's LEGO's first-ever minifigure modeled after Sony's live-action Venom design rather than the comic or animated versions.
LEGO's Venom Bust pairs a genuinely detailed 413-piece display model with a minifigure that Sony-continuity Marvel collectors haven't had access to before, giving the set real value beyond just being another villain bust in the line. If you picked one up at release, or you're catching up now, it's worth displaying the bust and minifigure together the way the pedestal is actually designed for.
Giving both the bust and the minifigure their own dedicated protection keeps this two-piece set looking its best long after assembly.
