Naturally, a Funko Pop! figure won't be 100% representative of how Surtur will look in Thor: Ragnarok but it does give a general idea of the aesthetic Marvel and Taika Waititi are aiming for.

At last year's San Diego Comic-Con, it was widely reported that Surtur was glimpsed in the sizzle reel shown but the first official trailer for Thor: Ragnarok kept the fiery ruler absent (although it appears Thor first appears chained up in Muspelheim). Now, we have our first look at a brand new Funko Pop! figure from the film, which provides a general idea of how Surtur will look.



Do you think Surtur will be a focal point of Marvel's SDCC plans this year? And will footage actually make its way online? We'll all have to wait and see what Kevin Feige and co. bring to Hall H this year.

Thor's world is about to explode in Marvel's Thor: Ragnarok. His devious brother, Loki, has taken over Asgard, the powerful Hela has emerged to steal the throne for herself and Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe. To escape captivity and save his home from imminent destruction, Thor must first win a deadly alien contest by defeating his former ally and fellow Avengers... The Incredible Hulk!

More Funko Pop! figures for Ragnarok have been revealed.
