Will we get a HOT TOYS Supreme Leader Snoke?

[Metalsaber]

After the movie, I'm not worried about this character.

 

[Centrocal]

Snoke would be another 'Mandarin' for HT

 

[KerotanFrog]

He may look cool (to some) but is ultimately a throw-away character.

Looking at the OT, how much do you see of the Emperor? You see a weird hologram of him in ESB, and then a few scenes of him in ROTJ walking, talking to Vader, trying to coerce Luke to the dark side, and then trying to kill Luke. And he is ultimately killed by Vader.

Spoiler:

You see the same thing for Snoke! You actually see more of him in TFA and TLJ than we saw of the Emperor in the entire OT. He has a few hologram scenes in TFA, and then there's quite a bit of him in TLJ. We see him scold Kylo (setting up his demise), scold Hux, praise Kylo for bringing Rey, torture Rey, and when he thinks Kylo is about to kill Rey, Kylo cleverly kills him. It's the exact same thing as the Emperor. It just happened in the 2nd movie of the trilogy and not the third. Snoke is definitely NOT a throwaway character. And the Praetorian Guards may have got destroyed by Rey and Kylo, but at least they actually fought them. The Royal Guards don't do jack s***. The only thing we see them do in the OT is leave. People need to take their homer glasses off and actually compare the two side by side.

Yes, we saw the emperor do A LOT more in the PT, but who's to say we won't see another Trilogy about Snoke? Strictly comparing the OT to the ST, Snoke does more. He actually succeeds in destroying the Republic and he almost wipes out the resistance. He would have destroyed Rey if he hadn't trashed Kylo and made him want to stab him in the back. I love the OT and the Emperor, but you can't blindly ignore what the films show you. Now that we have Snoke out of the way we can see Kylo's version of the Empire. It's kind of like a what if where Vader kills the Emperor and rules as he wanted. Which is awesome!

I'll definitely be buying Snoke, as he is a powerful dark side character.

I’m in the camp Snoke may not be dead...Maul suffered a similar fate and lived besides the dude was disfigured from something.

That said, I don’t think we will see HT version. I’m going to guess with all the TFA merch still available they’ll be pretty conservative on this film

They just over did it with the troopers. I think they over produced the main characters a bit, but I think they just invested too much in the troopers. Better this time with only the guards and executioner so far. I think they risk nobody buying the guards if they don’t make Snoke to go with them. Offer him up with a deluxe option with the throne like the GameStop version and I think he would sell decently. I’d still buy him.

Exactly. He looks like and serves the exact same purpose as the Emperor.

That being said, other than the glitter-gold slippers, he's cool enough to maybe warrant a figure. I mean if people are talking up a Rose figure, surely Snoke would be a possibility.

 

[swo77]

I don't see Hot Toys releasing this figure, at least not from TLJ...

Spoiler:

Who would want to buy the SW equivalent of The Mandarin?

 

[BatBrain]

I definitely think this figure still happens.

 

[Matt S]

Snoke is a *****.

 

[KerotanFrog]

I'm really hoping we get this figure. I hope it's the next one they announce.

 

[TheSensationalSean]

I'd like to see HT do Snoke and his throne - he's visually striking and it'd be amazing to recreate that set. It's hard to know if they will, since we still don't have Hux.

 

[willocrew]

Looks like You guys gotta go custom. Unless, the third instalment add some further to Snoke's story, Ho Toys ain't gonna touch this one.

Many people spent months speculating on Snoke's background and identity. The movie literally sliced apart that discussion hah!

 

[surforia]

This movie will gross half a billion dollars this weekend, and it doesn't even open in China until January 5th. Of course they'll make Snoke.

 

[Hellion]

Smoke equals False Mandarin, no way they make this.

 

[subzro]

I will only buy it if

Spoiler:

he comes apart at the waist

 

[ebor]

Nope. HT will not make Snoke. He died like a chump.

 

[Centrocal]

Particularly considering the fact that a figure would require a new body for Snoke. Its very unlikely HT will go through with it now

 

[ebor]

They should just release a 2-Pack of Lars and Aunt Beru and call the OT releases as day...(use excess rubber domes from the unsold ED-209 and package it)

 

[KerotanFrog]

Wow you guys are bringing me down. Saw the movie again today and want a Snoke figure even more. His scenes were great and he has one of the best scenes in the whole movie. Love this movie so much.

 

[subzro]

You can never tell with HT. It would not suprise me if they did.
