There were black eyes and on each of 6 of the body segments there is a black, yellow and white circles looks a bit like a target .As well as these 6 jointed segments there is the head and a tail segment too.

*Well for 50p you don’t expect much do you and we didn’t get much either.

A *FUN * way to make these move is to hold them by the tail in a pincher grip and move your hand a little the snake will then sway about in a *realistic* fashion .
My 3 year old granddaughter fiddled with this snake after we bought it and made it wriggle around she was mildly interested. My 6 year old grandson got it held it up wriggled the body about and dangled it over me when I was sat in a chair * I think I was supposed to be frightened, so I gave a *scared* squeal or two you know the sort Nanas do. Grandson was a little amused then chased his little sister around the room with it . . This was then the demise of the jointed snake it got grabbed and a bit squashed the joints became unjointed. The snake not really played with since.
*So it was ok for a few moments a throw away toy, would I recommend well not really it might work as a party favour for that party bag after an Indiana Jones party
