I do that with Shockwaves, though most are customs. You can find them under my Shockwave army thread, shown here:

I dont know. Its your choice and your money. I kind of can see the poc hawk as a troopbuilder.Kwinn not so much to me that is silly. Flint you could switch his heads and it is actually a cool body to use. I am using it right now. I just dont see the point of getting 30 of someone like Zartan or someone like Snake Eyes,etc. It is your money to spend and your collection though. It borders though on weird :-p j/k. At the end of the day its your choice on what youi want to do I just cant think of other figures that could be bought with the 10 bucks that are more army buildish.
I can see buying multiples of your fav. I buy multiples of ultimate SS just cause I worry about breaking a part of the one I opened when playing with him and want to be able to fix. I dont go crazy though and get 10 of em just maybe 3-4.

There's one guy famous for troop building Serpentors... I think he posts here, but can't remember his name...
Another guy army-builds Crystal Balls! Actually, might be the same guy.

I've done it with ROC Desert Duke, ROC Jungle Ripcord, ROC Shockwave(down to 3 now)DG Duke, MU Prof X, Ret wv1 Storm Shadow, Ret Budo, Ret Ult Duke, DC Multiverse Azrael. My troop number is usually 5 of each unless I can get them super cheap.

I think you might be thinking of Emperor Naja or Naja Emperor. He loves his Serpentors.

Unfortunately for my wallet, I like to troop build figs that arent supposed to be troop builders.

I prefer POC Beach Head using the steel brigade helmet from the pit commando, POC Dusty using his mask, and Shock Troopers with Alley Viper helmets.
