Interesting. It might be custom printed.

Checked the official Lego Whomp build (from Whomp's Lava Trouble Expansion
Set 71364) and it has a completely different print on a long brick instead of
three separate ones. Perhaps you are dealing with a custom print on official
Lego bricks.

And most likely the 1 1 x 4 brick is modified to some extent with arms

Check if the bricks have the Lego logo on the upper stud areas. That usually
helps to indicate legit piece from bootlegs.

Looks like it could be a custom printed because it looks crooked to me.
Also what part would connect the arms to the 1x4 brick

Looks like a third party print. Take a look at the bottom left and bottom right
corners - the print is crooked.

like the others suggested it’s 100% a custom print. The low print quality is
a dead giveaway

The other giveaway is that the picture is off centre, yet it all lines up OK
suggesting it was printed with the bricks stacked together. If LEGO had printed
this, then it would be unlikely to line up as well if so off centre.

While I agree this is a custom print, there is an entire market for misprinted
LEGO.

Being off center has no bearing on if the piece is genuine.

That is not my point. All of them being off centre yet well aligned to each other
suggests they were printed with the bricks assembled. And LEGO doesn't do
that.
