So I know this is probably pretty random, and pretty silly-
But I was bored this after noon- and with nothing else to do decided to clean up/sort through the boxes that have been sitting in my closet when I came across this guy.

(obviously super realistic, look how happy he is)

This is/was/and has been one of my favorite figurines for some time for a multitude of reasons.

First off, if was one of my favorite finds from a little tiny dump of a place (always the best for finding treasures) in Veldhoven, Netherlands.

Snake collectables were always a favorite of mine when I was younger, a sad replacement for the Snimal I was never allowed to keep in my home as a child (I had several that I kept for brief amounts of time in make shift outside homes for very BRIEF stints of time, but that is beside the point.

Memory road is fun.

You should have trained under a mentor before you tried to handle one on your own. amateurs :suspicious:

Yeah they are pretty pinchy xD

I actually have a whole collection of pose-able wooden toys similar to this one, (That was started when I was VERY young) Just haven't been able to break the habit. I am kinda immune to the pinched fingers at this point.
This one just happens to be my favorite, and only snake.

It is always good to consult the experts.

I should probably look into that. Might as well get him sexed while I am at it, you never know when I might find the perfect female to breed to.
