Part of the seventh wave of 2012-onwards Generations Legends Class toys, Thrilling 30 Venin (renamed due to obvious trademark reasons) is a redeco of Waspinator, in sorta-Generation 1 Insecticon colors. Venin can transform into a purple insect, a robot with 3 mm-compatible hands, and a gun with a 5 mm handle. He has an autotransformation feature that folds up his wings when his gun barrel is extended.

He was only available in a two-pack with the Legends Class Acid Storm. Compared to Waspinator, many of Venin's parts are considerably softer, giving him a much less solid feel.
