Uncommon to Rare. While only appearing in one relatively affordable set, its retirement has significantly increased secondary market scarcity.
Head
White head with unique printing: black jagged eye borders, yellow pupils, and a red mouth with jagged teeth. Non-reversible.
Torso
White torso with a stylized black Spider-Man logo extending across the chest. Detailed muscle definition and back printing mirroring the spider emblem.
Legs
Plain white legs with white hip piece; no printing present on legs or sides.

In set 76036, it includes transparent-orange power blast pieces (Super Jumper context); figure in image is missing accessories.
Color Scheme
High-contrast monochrome: Primary White with Black and Red/Yellow accents for facial features.
Printing Details
Pad-printed. High-quality alignment on the torso; head printing features rare yellow-on-black layering for the eyes.
Variants
This is the only official LEGO minifigure version of the Anti-Venom character to date.
Condition Notes
Susceptible to 'yellowing' if exposed to UV. Check for torso cracks under arms and teeth-print wear on the head.
Estimated Value
Used: $30 - $45 USD; New (taken from sealed set): $55 - $70 USD. Value is steadily increasing.
Price (New)
Original set 76036 retailed for $12.99 USD in 2015, making this a high-yield investment figure.

Character Background
Eddie Brock's alter-ego after being cured of the Venom symbiote; his touch is lethal to other symbiotes and can cure diseases.
Design Notes
Captures the 'Ultimate Spider-Man' animated series aesthetic. Uses his signature 'negative' color palette effectively.
Similar Minifigures
Venom (sh113), Carnage (sh186), Spider-Man 2099 (sh539).
Collectibility
High. It is a unique 'symbiote' variant that LEGO has not re-released, making it a staple for Marvel collectors.
History
Part of the 2015 wave that expanded the Spider-verse roster beyond Peter Parker and standard villains.
Interesting Facts
Despite being a 'hero' in some comics, the face print looks intentionally menacing to reflect the character's intensity.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside Venom and Carnage for a 'Symbiote' shelf. Use a white baseplate or a NYC rooftop MOC.
Modification Potential
Ideal for customizers to add white 'tendril' pieces or white capes; legs can be swapped for dual-molded white/black for a custom look.
Overall Assessment
Excellent figure. Standout printing and unique character choice. A must-buy for Marvel completionists while prices remain under $100.
