This is a damn good figure but I gave it a 9 because the snake head just isn't quite right. There's something about the original O-ring version that Hasbro hasn't quite recaptured in the modern sculpts, but he's still an awesome figure to display.

The cape keeps him from being a ten. The rest is all absolutely flawless.

This figure is the epitome of the Classified line. The deluxe treatment he got was an excellent idea. I have a fondness for the ARAH figure I had a kid, but looking at that figure and his original air chariot, the Classified team updated everything I could have wanted with him. Love that he comes with two head sculpts and his air chariot is absolute perfection! The only gripe I have is the guns on the air chariot tend to tilt upwards due to gravity and wish they had made a better system to keep them level, but that's not enough to knock the score down. Unlike Mindbender, his cloth cape is great and did not stain his shoulders. I remember seeing the reveal at SDCC last year and it blew me away and still does. SO far I feel it's the centerpiece of my Classified collection (at least until I get the HISS). All the little details on his body sculpt are great and definitely show off how much attention to detail they paid to this figure. That they included the snake spear is pure fun.

I gave him a 10 as well. The figure and Air Chariot are fantastic! The accessories are great too. My only gripe was/is how hard it was to get one. I literally had to keep hitting refresh to get one in my cart. By the time I checked out, they were sold out! I am glad I got one, but this should not have been an exclusive. Just like Dr. Mindbender should have been a main line release too.

Yeah, that is something that would have elevated him to an even better level of awesomeness if he had come with a wired cape. Maybe they can give him one if he ever sees a re-release of some kind.

I just got this figure yesterday and he is amazing. Definitely a 10, from me. There are a few nitpicks I have, but they don't subtract from the overall presentation. 1, I would have also liked a screaming head. 2, I would have preferred his cape be similar to the Sunbow version... the dark jungle green colour. However, my wife is a talented seamstress and will be whipping me up a Sunbow cape (complete with wiring) as soon as we get some fabric. I DO like the texture of the cape. They definitely didn't cheap out on the soft goods (looking at you Masterverse).

This was an easy 10 for me as he is one of the figures I enjoy looking at the most when I take a few minutes to look away from my computer.

Curious, which cowl/headpiece combo do you guys display your Serpentors with? I go back n' forth on it, but I think I like the 2-piece the best. The 1-piece cowl sort of restricts movement on his neck and head. I'm not a fan of the ME look minus the cowl at all, I think he looks naked without it.
