Maybe someone swapped out the v1 firearms with v2 because of broken thumbs or something? V2 was black in the places where v1 was gold.

EDIT: I have to correct myself, my own Serpentor has the same issue. Turns out that upon further research, my own is the mail in version, which is made of lower quality plastic. What threw me here is the lighting of the pic, which makes it look like a true black, rather than the more likely dark "black coffee" brown that my own has turned.
OP, yours is the same mail in version my own is. You can tell from the split chin, more curled serpent tails on his chest detail, and most notably, the Made in China stamp. The guys that mentioned discoloration are indeed correct. Careful with that figure, according to yojoe, it's far more fragile than the retail release.
