No real back story for these...I plan on doing a whole Serpentor's Throne Room setup eventually, but I wanted to show these two customs off now.

I always loved Serpentor's original uniform, but it never really seemed combat appropriate. More ceremonial. I also liked the v2 black repaint (though I think the yellow should have been gold), so I used one of my 25th Serpentors to emulate it.

As for the throne, it's the famous Flash Gordon Jaws of Death throne. I know everyone and their brother has used it as a Cobra throne, but it's just too perfect to pass up. I tried to paint mine to fit more with Serpentor's forces.

Regal Serpentor:
Entire figure: 25th Serpentor
Helmet: Comic pack Serpentor w/ hood attached

Oh, and as a bonus, here's a picture of me blatantly ripping off Dark Horse's idea to fix my 25th Cobra Commander. I used a Microman material force head, like he did, but I decided to paint mine silver instead of going with the chromed look, since I wanted mine to look as much like the v1 figure as possible.

Very nice, guess I'll have to snatch up a couple more Serpys if I see them. He looks pretty good with the dress trimmed into a belt too.

Smooth work, Darko. That throne is killer too. :love:

I really like the look of 25A Serpentor in v2 colors. Very cool.

Very cool --

If I can find a decent head for my Serpentor, I'm going to paint him in the same color scheme as you have here.

Guess I'll be checking Ebay for that Throne now :P

It's called Ming's Jaws of Death throne. If you can get it at the right time, you can get it pretty cheap. Mine was $2.

I had this very idea just today. Good to know it's gonna look sweeter than hell when I'm done (hopefully). Nicely done, darko.
