The Python armor (Iron Man Mk XX) is largely made of reused pieces from the Mk VII (Avengers) armor. The substantial differences are the legs being a new, slightly bulkier mold, and the paint. The black and gold provide a nice contrast and are pleasing to the eye. However, if you're looking for the black and gold armor from the comics, this isn't it. The Marvel Now armor in the comics was largely patterned after the Mk IV from the movies. The colors are laid out differently on the Mk XX, with alternating black and gold. The name "Python" doesn't seem to have anything to do with the armor. It looks more like a bumblebee than a snake. The figure comes with all the alternate parts and display options that the Mk VII came with: alternate hands, extended wind flaps on the back, alternate weapons pieces for the forearms, and blast effects for the palm repulsors and boot jets. If you have any of the other SHF Iron Man figures, you pretty much know what you're getting here (especially if you have the Mk VII, which shares a good 50% of its pieces with the XX). The figure is highly articulated and posable. It makes a great display piece, on its own or added into a Hall of Armors setup. While the figure has a good heft to it (thanks in part to a few diecast bits), and will have no problems holding up to posing and handling, it is not a toy meant for children to play with (if the price tag didn't make that clear ;) ). SH Figuarts are some of the best figures on the market in their scale, especially when it comes to the Iron Man armors. The crispness of the sculpting and molding, the engineering of the articulation, solid paint, and fidelity to the screen models put most mass retail release figures to shame. If you can only get one figure, Python might not be it. It was barely seen filling out the crowd shots in Iron Man 3, its only film appearance. The Mk III, IV, VII, 43, 45, 50, or 85 are much more iconic representations of the hero. But Python is a nice figure if you're not worried about having just one definitive Iron Man in your collection.Read full review

From the House Party Protocol in Iron Man 3, the Tamashii Web Exclusive MK20 Python. Close in appearance to the Mk7, there are some differences including the paint, which POPS with the black and gold. The MK 8-41 are figures that are only known in IM3, but this is one of the best besides Midas and Igor. Comes with a TON of replaceable parts such as wrist rockets, forearm rockets, Quadriceps missiles and Shoulder Missiles. The Shoulder blades also fold out for extra boost. Being a Tamashii Web Exclusive it comes in a brown shipped and will never again be released. The price on every Tamashii Web Exclusive has done nothing but gone up so this is a SOLID investment. 5 stars for sure especially for a suit with not as much screen time as the Mk3/7/42/43:44/45/46/50/85. Those got the main screen time but there’s a ton of other armors that deserved it.Read full review
