Smirking Python: TOYSREVIL Edition

Heavily influenced by the awesome G.I. Joe/Cobra Python Patrol series, comes this bad ass bald beauty, Smirking Python. Built up on a taller stronger body than the Toy Tokyo Edition, the TOYSREVIL edition utilizes the Barrack Sergeant body, which is very close in movement to the standard Hot Toys body. It features that awesome “cut out” style shoulder and double jointed limbs that the Hot Toys body, Sideshow Trooper body, and 3A body use. Additionally, the body “crunches” well at the stomach to get some really dynamic poses. We managed to procure 20 of these nude figures and we’re really happy with the way our resin head sculpt looks on it.

The edition comes to you with blind boxed styled accessories; of the 20 pieces:

3 x Flintlock Musket & Gunpowder Flask

5 x Sword (metal) & Sheath (random color) w/ 2 x Throwing Stars

5 x Chain Whip (metal) & 3 Frag Grenades

5 x Mace & 2 Gas Grenades

2 x Machete & Smoke Grenades

Smirking Python Influences

Following our Hollow Walker SDCC exclusive 1/6th scale custom figure for Toy Tokyo, comes this  NYCC exclusive, “Smirking Python”.

This striking camouflage ninja features a head sculpt influenced by the artist Mati Klarwein, whose work has grace such legendary album covers as Miles Davis’ “Bitches Brew” & “Live Evil”.

Miles music and style is a constant source of inspiration here at our studio.


Smirking Python Custom figure for Toy Tokyo

The NYCC is nearly upon us!!!! And sneaking through the shadow of the coming onslaught of exclusive figures comes the Smirking Python, descendent of the legendary Hollow Walker.

These hand made custom figures feature an original stylized head sculpt (by yours truly) & original “Tehama Camo” fabric costume. This set comes with a female body, a set of gloved hands, a sword & sheath set, & 2 grenades.

This officially marks the second part to our “Ten Year Anniversary” project with Toy Tokyo.


The Python Cometh

These are some early pics of our upcoming Smirking Python 12″ custom figure. We’re releasing this exclusively through our favorite Toy Blog, but that’s a secret for now. We’ll be revealing more info over the next 2 weeks, including a brand new head sculpt.

With a total of 25 pieces, this will be the biggest run of one custom figure that we’ve ever produced. It’s exciting, but extremely daunting.

They will be packaged similarly to the Hollow Walker 12″ Custom Figure, in a narrow box with artwork featuring the Python camo pattern.


Waiting for fabric to make more ninjas! The anxiety is mounting! I can’t wait to get it!

We have this killer grey “Fence / Gate” pattern which was again inspired by a vintage GI Joe figure. Well, in this case it’s not one figure, but a series of Cobra figures from the short lived Python Patrol sub-set. I’ve always loved the Python Patrol camo patterns, and I thought the grey diamond-shaped camo from the bib on the Python Crimson Guardsmen, and the overalls from the Python Tele-Viper figure, would make an awesome pattern for a ninja. Here’s a sneak peak at the design, with some reference photos:
