I suppose it's like the Junkion Blacksmith Headmasters. No REAL purpose or place, just cool. I don't think there is any official canon about a headmaster that turns into a cobra tank thing....but it's neat.

I got the Snake Villain a while ago… it's okay, very simplistic.
Nice as a one-off but I wouldn't go out of my way for a duplicate of the mold.
