Hot Toys - MMS 799 & MMS 800 - Batman & Robin: Mr. Freeze 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure

[Wor-Gar]

Arnold must have been generous with his licenses if we are getting figures blitz bonanza.

He needs money. He's saying yes to anyone and everyone that asks.

I asked... and he said "Yesssssssssss... do eet".

 

[Mike86]

This is an amazing figure, and he packs an equally amazing price.

Can Poison Ivy possibly be far behind...?

He is pricey, but I feel like the fact that we’re getting it at all makes it worth it. Plus it’s a bigger figure and has a lot of light up features.

I’m curious about Ivy or other Burton/Schumacher villains too. Is this a one off because of some connection with Arnold or is Hot Toys trying to capitalize before Jazzinc jumps in?

 

[Wor-Gar]

This figure is massive. Height and girth.

Finally popped up at GunDamit for a decent price and the deluxe is only $25 more than the regular so I’ve bagged myself one.

I don’t use any regular display stands anymore/ unless a character really can’t stand without it- but I usually find a use for dioramas or environmental bases like these steps.
The wings will likely never even leave the packaging.

Does GunDamit get their stock around the same time as Sideshow... or do you have to wait months?

For those that POed Mr. Freeze so far, did you PO Clooney as well?

 

[Wor-Gar]

I suspect there will be a small bump in Clooney sales (maybe even Robin)... but I still think there will be plenty of peg-warmers made for eBay.

Not yet, but I probably will get both Batman and Robin. To me if I’m getting Batman I need Robin too.

If I get Clooney, I’m skipping on Robin. Already have Forever Robin and don’t need another bird boy.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Hopefully Clooney will be scaled better to Keaton Bats and the other villains than Kilmer Bats was.

I like the Robin suit from Batman & Robin since it reminds me of Nightwing. I never bought the Batman Forever figures.

 

[Stanlore]

Didn't even blink to order this. Had Clooney on order already and skipped Robin.

Still hate this movie to its core, and yet here we are.

I just really really want an Alicia Silverstone Batgirl figure. Make Poison Ivy or not... gimme Batgirl !

My instinct is telling me it's a one-off because of their Arnold connection, but a big part of me is hoping that Hot Toys are trying to beat out Jazzinc, and will make Ivy and other Burton/Schumacher villains.

Not that I have anything against Jazzinc doing those characters at all, just that it's always good to have a cheaper option, which would be Hot Toys in this case.

If HT makes Poison Ivy then I’ll believe it, but they’ve been planning this line for a while if they had the prototypes for B&R at Wonderfest back in what Sep last year. Minor adjustment to the T-800 sculpt to give us a Mr Freeze is a natural progression.

 

[Only-When-I-Breathe]

I don't think the deluxe version is worth it at all. The standard base is fine and the wings look cumbersome and awkward to display. Deluxe versions should have at least one awesome addition, like the Returns 2.0 head sculpt.

Also, weird that HT are doing this but so far no Returns or Forever villains.

 

[Uncle Bingo]

Although this is one of my most wanted figures of all-time, I was more expecting Batman Forever Riddler and Two-Face to go up for order this year since this is Batman Forever's 30th Anniversary. Batman & Robin's 30th Anniversary isn't for another 2 years.

 

[High On Figures]

Although i think it's overpriced, it's worth a buy if you think we aren't going to get another Arnie Mr Freeze from HT again. Yes all figures are not immune from 2.0s but some way more unlikely than others.

There's still time for Riddler and Two-Face to be revealed by Hot Toys, coinciding with WB announcing the Schumacher cut of Batman Forever.

Well, in my dreams at least

They’re on par with or ahead of other stores when it comes to 3P, InArt and other brands, but I won’t know how quickly they get HT stock until Battle Damaged T-800 releases since thats the first HT I’ve ordered from them.
