He looks really good, hope people are happy with him.

 

[Gipetto0812]

I'm liking it more now with the official pics. But I think the head needs to sit a little lower which will help the overall look

 

[Dingobuzz269]

Not sold on the face, but I'm sure it will look pretty good in person. Star Ace hasn't failed us yet! Accessories look good.

My biggest concern is the purple coat. I definitely think it needs to be black. Snape is a black character (theme wise) and the purple doesn't fit.

But it's the outfit he wore if Half Blood Prince.

 

[Stanlore]

Looks alright, not as much a home run as the other releases.

A little too thin, and the facial expression is not quite Snape to my eyes.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Looks great to me. No denying who that is!

Hermione is still the best they've done so far.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

this line is fantastic.

 

[nexus]

Looks good, but could still use some work, so hopefully they might tweak it a bit more. Accessories are quite nice. Overall a solid addition. This is a great line for figures.

 

[Stachel]

By Grabthar's hammer I shall preorder this!

 

[Lumos]

Ehhh. I dunno... It's recognizable as Snape, but something looks off with that sculpt. And the expression is just all wrong for Snape.

I think I like Medicom's better.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

I like this better than Medicom's personally. Plus it'll have superior paint apps. I love the accessories he comes with.

 

[Buttmunch]

Yeah, that purple robe has got to go. I don't care if the screen used robes were purple, they turned out black on screen and that's what it needs to be. Switch which film its based on, but just change them to black! I really don't want to have to end up dying it myself, because I will. Voldemort's robes at least appeared dark green at times, Snape was never purple.

 

[bunnyfreakz]

" They gonna change it " they said

Lol nope....

The only time it's been purple is for some of the promotional images, especially the earlier movies. The first few years of Lego Snapes had purple coloring, too. But it's always been black in the all of the movies. Black black black!

People complain that they want accuracy but when they get it they want it inaccurate? Unreal!!!

By the way, it sure looks purple here.

 

[cmiller99]

I still don't think that there is a great likeness in that sculpt. It's pretty good. But it's slightly off in key areas and that's throwing it for me.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Looks fantastic! All I need now is Lupin and DH Harry, Ron and Hermione. The fanboy in me is gutted that we don't have a figure of Hans Gruber yet though.

 

[Michael Crawford]

I think it's the hair. While I'm very glad they went with sculpted hair rather than rooted for this character, there's something too thick about the way they having it laying on the sides of the head. I think the likeness is great, but the hair is wonking it up.

And it's nice to see that Harry Potter fans get to have their own version of the 'brown coat/blue coat' wars.
