I've always had a problem with how the Classified Serpentor head looked with either head piece option, that painted ibmmt head looks much better than the stock head. If one becomes available, I'll definitely buy a ibmmt head to switch with stock head.

I feel you on that! I was inspired by ibmmt's Serpentor head, and ended up modifying and printing a Serpentor head from a bobble head design based off his original look. It's not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with the results.

I've just gotten my Serpentor...is the snake head on the chariot supposed to have teeth?

Yes, they are pulled down from the roof of the mouth, and the small gun as well. They are tiny and kind of hard to get. I used a tooth pick to get it them first time.

Really glad Hasbro Pulse put Dr. Mindbender and Serpentor back up.
I was inclined to believe that the air chariot was going to be a one off and Serpentor would be released as a figure only.
I lost my fist Serpentor figure when his cape got caught in the intake fan and pulled him through making ground beef snake.
Even Dr. Mindbender couldn't fix that.

An obvious Hasbro design flaw.

Right?!
Going to have to do some serious modifications this time around.
I do light amateur mods here and there, but this is one I may need to call in a few "I owe yous" from some of the bigger pros at customization in the hobby.

I still haven’t opened Serpentor yet. I’m displaying him on the shelf, but I’m heavily debating opening him.

Got mine today. Damn, what a nice toy! It's really overpriced, but I think it may be one of my favorites from the entire line...if not my favorite.
