Snaggletooth (Red)

The Funko Pop! vinyl figure of Snaggletooth, designated as number 70 in the Star Wars series, was released during the promotional lead-up to the 2015 premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It depicts the character based on the obscure 1978 Kenner action figure, which famously misidentified the alien Zutton as a tall, blue-suited creature due to a lack of clear reference materials at the time. This specific 'red' variant pays homage to the primary color scheme found in the original vintage toy line.

The figure was designed by Funko’s internal creative team to capture the stylized, big-headed aesthetic characteristic of the Pop! brand while leaning into the nostalgia of the original Kenner figure. It was initially released as a convention-exclusive item, specifically for the 2016 Star Wars Celebration, which heightened its appeal among completionist collectors. Reception was largely driven by its status as a deep-cut reference to Star Wars history, bridging the gap between modern merchandise and vintage fandom.
