The shadowy master of the First Order, Supreme Leader Snoke, made his The Vintage Collection debut in 2018 as part of Wave 17. This release captures Snoke as seen in his opulent throne room aboard the Supremacy in The Last Jedi. While previous 3.75-inch versions of the character were limited in articulation, this TVC entry provided the definitive "super-articulated" version of the villain, allowing fans to finally pose him in his menacing, contemplative seated positions.
Technical Details & Sculpt
- Character Likeness: The head sculpt is a highlight of the 2018 relaunch, utilizing Photo-real technology to render the complex, scarred features of the Supreme Leader. The deep cranial fissure and asymmetrical facial damage are sculpted with gruesome accuracy, capturing the ancient and frail yet powerful look of the character.
- Attire & Deco: Snoke is famously clad in his gold-woven silk robes. The figure utilizes a shimmering metallic gold paint over a detailed fabric-textured sculpt. The contrast between the brilliant robes and his pale, mottled skin is striking, and the paint application on his eyes gives him a cold, calculating gaze.
- Articulation: Featuring premium TVC articulation, including ball-jointed wrists and rocker ankles. A key design choice was the use of soft-goods lower robes beneath the sculpted outer layer, which allows the figure to sit perfectly in a throne without the "pop-out" issues seen with fully plastic figures.
- Display Utility: This figure is the centerpiece of any First Order display. He is best positioned in the Snoke’s Throne Room diorama, flanked by his Elite Praetorian Guards (VC120) or looming over Kylo Ren (VC117) and Rey (VC122).
Accessories & Equipment
As a character who relies on the Force and his subordinates for combat, Snoke’s accessories are focused on his regal status. He includes his attendant’s ring (sculpted onto the hand with a distinct black stone) and his ornate gold slippers. This release is often paired with the throne accessory found in the specialized "BB-8 2-in-1 Mega Playset" or the dedicated Throne Room environment sets.
