Snapco LLC is a joint venture that was founded by the owners of Snap Creative LLC of Camarillo, California, USA and the PCO Group GmbH of Dassow, Germany in 2009.

The company provides licensed promotional products for sale at cinema concession stands and are widely known for their line of "Speedpack cup toppers" featuring characters and vehicles from popular contemporary films. Snapco products are distributed by the PCO Group in Europe and other territories.

Concession stand products

In 2016, the company produced in-mold labeled (IML) plastic beverage cups, popcorn tubs, and trays featuring imagery from Star Trek Beyond, and were sold at participating cinemas worldwide.

Cup toppers

Three "cup topper" starship miniatures were released in July 2016 in conjunction with the premiere of the film, and each came with a circular, removable stand that slotted into the IML beverage cup's lid and could be separated from the ship.

Home video premiums

The same three "starship figurines" (with shorter, removable oval stands) were also provided by Paramount Home Video as retailer premiums sold with certain "exclusive" home video releases of Star Trek Beyond. Walmart and Amazon.de retailed them with the Ultimate Blu-ray Gift Set in November 2016. [1]
These versions of the USS Franklin and USS Enterprise miniatures feature extra painted detailing not added to their cup topper counterparts.
