Jon Snow fans continue to hang on to every possibility of the Lord Commander's resurrection in 'Game of Thrones' Season Six. It also looks like HBO may have sparked hope in the Jon Snow Lives theory.
[SPOILERS AHEAD]
The network recently announced a toy sale called "Honour the Fallen: The Memoriam Collection," where fans can purchase departed 'Game of Thrones' characters Ned Stark, Joffrey Baratheon, The Hound and Khal Drogo at a very low price. Almost all of the popular dead characters were part of the collection, like Oberyn Martell and Ygritte. However, the most beloved (allegedly) dead character was not in the toy sale.
Jon Snow is not available in the In Memoriam toy collection.

Fans immediately started speculating that Jon Snow's absence in "Honour the Fallen: The Memoriam Collection" confirms that the Lord Commander will return in the show's sixth season.
However, Vanity Fair is quick to point out that the collection only includes characters that died in Seasons One to Four. Jon Snow is also not the only dead character who was excluded, since Barristan Selmy and Shireen Baratheon are not in the collection as well.
Perhaps the exclusion of Barristan and Shireen suggests that the collection only honors the more popular characters of 'Game of Thrones.' After all, Stannis Baratheon's heart pin is part of the sale.
This isn't the first time that Stannis Baratheon had a hand at revealing Jon Snow's true fate. Beautiful Death, which interprets the iconic deaths in each 'Game of Thrones' episode in amazing art, chose to honor Stannis' demise in 'Mother's Mercy.'

Several fans argue that Jon Snow's death was far more shocking compared to Stannis Baratheon's, but the Beautiful Death choice suggests that the Lord Commander isn't actually dead.
Will Jon Snow finally return in Season Six? 'Game of Thrones' will return to HBO in 2016.
