They could have done more ring like goo in the area, or branched the single seam goo, so as not to make the seam ring stand out, but still, it's the better choice for me personally.
I also noticed that goo ring around his left arm as well. Thought it looked quite strange. Agree that they could've added some branching to make it a little more natural.

Photo credits to Tyler Sherwood on FB. The heads look great overall. Not sure why they made the raging head so small (the gaping mouth is huge, but they shrunk the cranium). Maybe it looked weird with a bigger cranium?

It?s probably just the angle. I can?t imagine the Kucharek bros would mess something like that up. The raging head is facing is straight on in the pic so we can?t really see the length of his jaw.

McFarlane always made his Venom head bigger than most renditions so that's most likely why. I doubt very much its by mistake also.

Green saliva head is the best, but not sure why they made it smaller than the others.

blue highlights are a little sketchy but overall the sculpt looks really good on this portrait, too bad the rest of the body has several kinds of texture that dont match the smooth finish

Except the entire back (and at least top of chest from what I can see) does match the more smooth texture of that head. I don't need those rough patches (like on his shoulder) added to the head for it to match the overall body.
