Hey guys I've joined in hopes of finally finding out what I've stumbled across here,

I found this beaut at a local toysrus few months back and had it stored until i started instagraming.

Instagram

sorry you will have to click on the link to see the photo, but the venom is also different, it's all black? no white paint?

cheers ladies and gents

I don't know dude... my instincts say repack/custom. that venom head is from the spider man 3.75" line, witch makes it almost impossible to be a factory error, considering they came out years apart, the body has bee painted flat black, and I'm not sure that's even venoms body. the legs are definitely not venom's. I think it's a customizer screwing around. you'd be surprised how often these things come up. truth is Hasbro's QC is pretty damn good. you might occasionally find a wrong name insert, or no name insert but I've never seen a true mis-packed figure in the MU line.

A figure like that doesn't hold any extra value in the packaging like that. I would open it up and give it a closer inspection to see what the hell you have there. It must be some kind of custom because no Venom released had a similar style body and knee articulation. The legs are actually the part I'm the most confused by.

I don't think they are MU at all, the knees aren't right, they look almost like MIB

Looks way too thick for the MIB3 figures.
