Rarity
Common - This is one of the most widely produced versions of Venom, appearing in multiple sets and Junior/4+ lines over several years.
Head
Black head with white large eyes and a jagged mouth featuring short white teeth over a red tongue. Single-sided print with no hair or headgear.
Torso
Black torso with white spider emblem on front and back. Features muscle definition (abs) and white printing that extends slightly down the chest. Black arms and hands.
Legs
Plain black legs and hips with no printing.
Accessories
This specific figure is usually associated with black webs, black tendrils (via a neck bracket), or black 'super jumper' pieces, though none are pictured here.
Color Scheme
Dominant Black with White and Red accents. High-contrast monochromatic look with a small splash of red for the mouth.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head and torso. This version is notable for having 'shorter' teeth compared to the 2013 and 2019 versions. Alignment is generally excellent.
Variants
Closely resembles sh055 (longer teeth) and sh632 (2020 version with arm printing). This specific sh113 variant is the most standard 'classic' modern Venom.
Condition Notes
Minimal wear visible; check for 'arm cracks' at the pits and 'heel cracks' at the back of the legs. Black plastic is prone to visible scratches under bright light.
Estimated Value
Used: $4.00 - $6.00 USD; New: $8.00 - $10.00 USD. Value is stable due to high supply.
Price (New)
Included in sets ranging from $14.99 to $49.99. The most common entry point was the 76013 set ($49.99) or the 76115 set.
Compatible Sets
76013 Batman: The Joker Steam Roller, 76115 Spider Mech vs. Venom, 76150 Spiderjet vs. Venom Mech, 76114 Spider-Man's Spider Crawler.
Character Background
Eddie Brock, bonded with an alien symbiote that hates Spider-Man. One of Marvel's most iconic anti-heroes/villains.
Design Notes
Classic 2014-era design. It simplifies the 2013 version's toothy grin into a more manageable print for the LEGO aesthetic. Does not feature the 'back-hole' for tendrils seen in later years.
Similar Minifigures
sh055 Venom (2013), sh632 Venom with arm printing (2020), sh769 Venom with tentacle assemblies.
Collectibility
Medium-Low. It is a staple character for any Marvel fan, but its high production volume makes it a 'starter' collector item rather than a high-end investment.
History
Followed the first modern Venom (2013) and served as the 'standard' Venom for nearly 6 years before the 2020 redesign with arm printing took over.
Interesting Facts
Despite being a Spider-Man villain, this specific ID (sh113) actually debuted in a DC Universe Batman set (76013) as a 'Super Heroes' crossover wave inclusion.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for a 'Sinister Six' shelf or a Spider-Man vs. Venom vignette. Looks best when paired with various black symbiote 'tendril' accessories.
Modification Potential
High. Being black and white, the torso is often used for custom 'Agent Venom' or 'Black Suit Spider-Man' purist customs.
Overall Assessment
A solid, iconic representation of the character. While not rare, it is the definitive 'comic style' Venom for most collectors due to its clean printing and classic look.
