Mr. Freeze
Batman Missions True-Moves
Mr. Freeze has been a tough one to track down. Quite a cold case, if you will. Ba-dum-ching! He was a late assortment refresh pack-in that I have only seen once on the shelves so far. In fact, I picked up the one and only one I have seen. He's been on Amazon for some time, but priced at $20 or more. Too rich for my blood, but I might have caved if I had not been lucky enough to nab him.
The design on the suit is fantastic. Lots of mech-tech sculpting, buckles, and straps. And the color scheme...black, silver, and blue never looked so good! The only thing that might have made it better would be some white, cold-frosting effects...especially on the base of the dome.
Oh, it was a complete shock that the dome is removable. Does that qualify as an accessory? Maybe not, but Mr. Freeze has a gun! Oh, wait...it's molded to his hand! Wah-wah. So close to perfection, but not a deal breaker. Still loving these big, cheap Batman dolls! As I mentioned before, they sport a decent amount of articulation for $10 and the comic book designs set them apart from all the movie garbage on the shelves. Great for kids and collectors alike...unless you're a lame articulation snob. Chill out!
Nice write-up and toy photography! I just started noticing how cool these are - I have a Black Manta and love it, must hunt down more.
