Looks cool!
Man, DST could have made a killing if they sold that set in a box by itself.

Ironken3000, this looks great. Love how it looks on the Snoke Throne and how you made the temple setup. I have the snakes, have not painted them yet, but this definitely gives me great ideas. I am not that concerned about exactly matching whatever specific shade[s] Cobra red actually are. Over the years there seems to have been various reds used for Crimson figures, vehicles. Even the new Classified Red Ninja has several Reds on it. So I will worry with that later. I love the snakes and they are very impressive in person. Encourage others to pick them up as you did in the video. They are in WalMart stores and also sometimes available online as well. Also there is a little Battlesnake story (animal hybrid creation) that maybe could line up with some Dr. Mindbender / B.A.T or something else within the JoeVerse as well. The armor-plate of the snake is very cool to me, and I think the size can work well for either vintage all the way up to Classified series. When I think about the cartoons, they used cobras in so many ways, from entrance scanners to temple decor to throne rooms, etc.
This is the red that I used (It's the only one I had that was closer to crimson, but not pure red):

It's from the Diamond Select Ghostbusters line; they had a Build-a-Diorama of Gozer's rooftop temple (this set here) and another of the firehouse spread across a few waves.

This looks awesome! I just wish the tail was poseable so you could have two of them mirror each other, but I still might pick up one or two of them eventually.
Yours was kickass too, 46! |

You can always pull out the tail. The main Cobra piece is hard plastic vs the soft rubber body. Don't know if you good at kit bashing. Here's what 46 zone and I did. This way you could have them facing each other.
