Rare. I have only found venom ONCE in store, and that is when it was first released. Stupid me didn't buy it - so I had to go to ebay.

I really don't get ther Venom thing. In the UK at least he was as readily available as the others in the initial wave, and is still available through many websites at retail price.
He is awesome though, and I wish our US cousins luck in their hunts.

I didn't realize Venom was rare. I have almost picked it up a few times.

He's the only rare Marvel figure. Guess they just made less of him. I've never been lucky enough to find him in stores, and unfortunately, I still haven't picked him up. I also googled Venom, and it seems that every store that has him listed at regular price is sold out. I've ONLY seen him for sale on E-Bay, so if someone can post a link to an online store that currently has one, please post it. That's the ONLY Marvel Mugg I don't own that's currently out, including the SDCC ones. If anyone finds one in a local store, there's a list of people wanting him. I don't know if JP's got one yet, but he's first, I'm second. I will good money for him. Let me know if anyone finds one, it's a guaranteed sale, but the box has to be in good shape. I

Also, I have TONS of stuff to trade. If any of you collect GI Joe, I have the SDCC Cobra Commander Black Suit MIP which is listed for $50 (goes for $30-50 on Ebay), that I will trade for a Venom MIB.
I have tons of things to trade, the only things I wont trade are the rare SHS packs (Spidey/Vulture, Beast/Iceman, Sandman/Venom, etc.) or any other Muggs.
I also am not planning on trading my JLU figs, but I do have a couple 3 pack duplicates I'd be willing to trade.

I'll see what I can do. I am sure somewhere near me must have one. Only problem might be cost of postage to the US, but I am sure we can work something out.
