Black base with printing: white large eyes with red outlines, silver web patterns, and light blue 'bio-electricity' or 'venom blast' crackling effects around the eyes.
Torso
Black base featuring a dark blue and red Spider-logo on the front with subtle web detailing. The arms are highly unique, featuring extensive light blue and white electric lightning/energy printing.
Legs
Standard black legs without printing. Most of the detail on this specific variant is concentrated on the upper body and arms.
Accessories
Typically comes with translucent light blue power blast elements (bricks 27393/35032) to simulate his energy powers. No hair piece is included in the base set.
Color Scheme
Primarily black with red and dark blue accents; signature light blue/white 'Venom Blast' electricity is the standout accent color.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head and torso. The arm printing is the defining feature, displaying complex electrical arcs that extend from the shoulders to the wrists.

This is a specific powered-up variant. Other versions include the classic red-webbed version (sh190), a 2021 update (sh636), and the 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' version (sh883).
Condition Notes
Watch for standard torso cracks at the sides due to arm tension. The light blue hand clips can show stress marks if accessories are swapped frequently.

Character Background
Miles Morales, the second Spider-Man of the Marvel Universe, possesses unique 'Venom Blast' abilities—a bio-electric shock. This figure represents him actively using those powers.
Design Notes
LEGO designers focused heavily on the arms for this version to differentiate it from the many black-and-red Miles figures. The use of light blue hands (Medium Azure) is a rare design choice for this character.
Similar Minifigures
sh636 (Miles with red hood), sh0190 (Classic Miles), sh214 (Spider-Man Miles Morales - Short Legs), and sh614 (Venom).
Collectibility
Moderate. Fans of Spiderman and the 'Spider-Verse' films seek this out for the unique power-up look, though the lack of leg printing slightly limits its premium appeal.
History
First debuted in January 2023 as part of a wave focusing on Marvel comic/game characters, bridging the gap between Miles' movie appearances.
Interesting Facts
The 'Venom Blast' depicted here is a mistranslation of 'Venom' from the comics (meaning poison), but in LEGO form, it is visually interpreted as blue electricity similar to the 'Spider-Man: Miles Morales' video game.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed on a translucent tile or posing stand to look like he is mid-air, surrounded by translucent blue 'energy' bricks.
Modification Potential
Excellent. Many collectors swap the plain legs for dual-molded black and red legs from other Miles variants to create a 'Ultimate Miles' figure.
Overall Assessment
A visually striking variant thanks to the arm printing. While the lack of leg detail is a drawback, the unique head and limb printing make it a standout in any Spider-Man collection.
