In what seems to have become a pretty darn obnoxious trend, another high-profile movie character has been revealed through the underwhelming medium of children's toys.
Elaborating on what we have already seen revealed as a Pez dispenser, we now have a clearer look at new Spidey baddie The Lizard (played by Rhys Ifans) from the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man via a graphic on a remote control. This is probably the clearest shot we've seen yet, revealing the creature in all his scaly glory.
So what do you think? Is this a ballsy, fresh take on the character, or does he look a little too much like a Goomba from the Super Mario Bros. movie?
For reference, here's our Lizard:
And...Goomba!
Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man is in theaters July 3, 2012.

Say what you will about actors needing to keep their cotton-pickin' mouths shut, but I think it's refreshing to hear their realistic opinions on movies that...well, flat-out sucked.
After sharing his thoughts on the travesty that was M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening, Mark Wahlberg has returned to give MTV News his take on Tim Burton's colossal failure, 2001's Planet of the Apes.
As is often the case, it was a classic tale of studio meddling. "They didn't have the script right," Wahlberg said. "They had a release date before he
had shot a foot of film. They were pushing him and pushing him in the
wrong direction. You have got to let Tim do his thing."
But it wasn't all bad:
"I had no better time on any movie than I had working with Tim," he
said. "I had the most amazing time with Tim. I run to be on the set with
him." What do you mean, Mark, it wasn't as much fun as working with David O. Russell on I Heart Huckabees?
Wahlberg's view on both Planet of the Apes and The Happening? "It is what it is."

In one of his first projects back in front of the camera, Arnold Schwarzenegger is skipping over the usual suspects (terrorists, drug smugglers, etc.) and going head-to-head with the big man himself: the Devil.
Okay, so that's not the official word, but Schwarzenegger's 2013 action flick Black Sands has been re-titled Black Sunday, and the actor himself has been quoted as saying: "I'm a kind of angel, but I can not currently say more about this film." An angel, eh? In an action movie called Black Sunday? Sounds like End of Days 2 to me.
The film was originally about a one-man war against an arms dealer, so we'll see if they simply make the hero a bloodthirsty angel out for revenge. Let's be honest, I think we'd all pay good money to see that.
With The Last Stand, The Expendables 2, and now Black Sunday, who's excited for Arnold's big return?
