2021 was great for collectors of Black Major figures, as the fan-favorite Trooper mold had been brought back to the front line as part of an onslaught of new offerings the Major had called “Operation: Cobra Clutch”!
I had the opportunity to share a review of the Diamondback Python Patrol Trooper and Officer. Check it out below –













I may be off in my assumption here, but these new Troopers felt different than past releases. The plastic used here felt a bit sturdier and the paint masks/apps were much cleaner than other trooper releases I’ve owned. The gray diamondback pattern is fantastic on this figure, as the white, yellow, black and red highlights absolutely pop off of the mold. I’m loving the new load out, as the Shock Trooper weapon makes a great compliment for vintage figures, especially the trooper.

















Although I really dug the green scheme on the last set of Python Troopers we received, they weren’t of much use outside of a jungle environment. These Python Troopers look great in any city dio and of course look great alongside the vintage Python Patrol team…which would have been great to include, had I not sold all of mine. Sigh. Eh, at least I can show you a shot of the new Python Trooper alongside the killer new Blueshirt and Paratrooper.













Needless to say, I can’t recommend this set enough.









These sexy mofos wish you a great week ahead!


Wow! Wish I had these figures back in the day 🙂

I wish I would’ve kept them. 😦 I love acquiring things, selling them at a loss, then buying them for twice as much. #superintelligence
