@@Xmanny87 correct. He was one of the only X-men in the AoA timeline to survive & remain in that timeline. In the Uncanny X-force series by Remender he later betrayed his friends & sided with the Dark Beast. Nightcrawler took him out. That was a great series.
Iceman is my favorite mutant and AoA is my favorite version as well. I lazily dry brushed white over mine and it really shows just how amazing this new sculpt really is.
This is the best version of iceman and hasbro did a great job on it!! Love hoe this figure turned out. I agree they need to make ice effects or a better slide effect for him. Enjoyed the extra pics at the end and great review bro!!
I got this figure last year!!! So awesome, perhaps the best version of Iceman!!!! Only, I’m makin’ my own X-Men story and I have this form when he’s been brainwashed by someone very ‘sinister’!
@@Xmanny87 trust me man, for the amount of effort you put into your reviews, I am amazed at the speed at which they are coming out. Keep up the good work Manny.
Man, I’ve been waiting for this review of yours! I just got mine yesterday and upon seeing this I immediately had to check the paint app. Luckily I got the better one.😅 ACBA photos at the end are so COOL(no pun intended)!!!
This and Kitty are the ones I'm least excited for but the pure joy this figure gave you made me appreciate it a lil more now, I only thing about this ice man is his size, I thought once he maxed out he was bigger in the comics but like you said its different when you have him in hand, I'm hoping for a AOA Bishop, nightcrawler, and obviously the cajun, but we need more villains tho, and AOA has a bunch still so who do you think will be next? I think SINISTER
Sinister is a must. Gambit, Nightcrawler, Bishop, Quicksilver, Storm, Abyss maybe. Holocaust upgrade. I can see Jubilee and a Strong Guy BAF as well to start rounding out the externals.
Do you still have your boxes for your Icemen? There's a printed number on the back that shows the batch number for the run. I'm wondering if the frosted Iceman has a higher or lower batch number; that should tell you which was made first if the numbers are different. It's a five digit number located above the pictures of the figures in the wave.
We need a Captain Planet accessories pack from Hasbro.... -> "EARTH, WIND, WATER, FIRE,..... heart?" 🤣 But seriously, an elemental effect pack seems like a no brainer? Electric, Fire, Ice? Would love some kind of water base for hyrdo man! Help the poor guy stand better with his arms outward.
That is so weird that these are so different from each other. Can you see the differences while they are in package before you open? I hope I get the good one. Great review.
Great looking figure. The new bulkier torso looks great. The frosty effect makes it pop. Only slight gripe is the blue is maybe a shade dark. Looks a little bit deep water rather than ice cold.
I can't wait to get this wave. IMO he is my least desired as I've been using the Jugg wave as my AoA Iceman and I still feel Hasbro has not given us a great Iceman. The sculpt looks spot on but he seems way too blue.
Unless Hasbro re-release the retro Iceman and make his color like this AOA Iceman, I would also say that this is the best looking Iceman figure there is.
No. I just needed to step away and focus on my mental health. Didn’t know for how long as I didn’t want to put a time stamp on it but wanted to come back when I felt right. No matter how long it took.
Bro... I know you're gonna hate me for what I'm about to say, lol. 😆 😆 😆 So, I'll start with this... I LIKE the sculpting and figure mold itself, AND I love that it's NOT a stupid gummy@$$ mess... He's pretty cool looking, sculpt-wise, no doubt about it. However... I am NOT an AoA fan at all. I pretty much hate all the designs, aside from a select few here and there, and especially despise Sugarman (largely because he's a pedo character, and I will NEVER support that aspect...). Iceman was one of the few designs that I felt was a logical, and LONG overdue, evolution of the character... I also enjoyed Sunfire, Kitty, Dark Beast, & Blink... Maybe a few others that escape me right now, but VERY few. Anyway, my reasons for hating almost the entirety of AoA, are probably as vast as yours are for liking it, so I won't bother with all of that, lol. 😅 As for this figure, YES, LIKE the sculpt and paint apps, but he's TOO blue...!!! He looks more like the "Ice Cool Aquavelva Man" than Iceman... I would love this version IF he looked more like ICE than aftershave.😁😁😁 We definitely NEED ice effects, and more, BETTER fire & energy effects/blasts too. That said, I may decide to get this figure if he looks decent in hand and can MAYBE be "de-blued" or something... JUST because of THIS review. 😉
Man, you good bro. I won’t ever hate you for showing love on my videos regardless of how you feel towards the source material or the figure itself. You always show respect towards me and I appreciate that a ton. 😎👍🏼
@@Xmanny87 Always respect what you do here, my main Manny! I know you put a lot of effort and energy into every review and I appreciate that, because it shows that you care about what you're doing. Like I've said before, even if you're reviewing a figure of a character I may hate, I enjoy the review because of what you do... The AoA figures, for example, I'm not a fan of, BUT I'm enjoying these reviews. I'm planning to pick up the Rogue and Kitty (×2) IF I can find them, because I can use them for customs I'm planning, and I MAY even get an Iceblueaquavelvaman, just because of YOUR review, even though I had planned to pass on him. I'm hoping for a depowered X-Factor version of Bobby Drake Iceman along WITH an X-Factor Jean Grey in her red & big gold "X" costume, to finish THAT team up finally... (Since we ALREADY have Beast, Cyclops, Iceman, who I bought a custom "power inhibitor" belt for, and Archangel... Though I'd really like an Angel figure in his red/blue & white pre-Archangel costume too.) Anyway, I'm usually always in complete agreeance with you on everything you review, and even when I may not be, I appreciate what you do, and STILL enjoy every review! I'm looking forward to the Sabertooth review coming next. (I DID pick up a Wild Child that was reduced down, because I wanted to paint him purple for my Alpha Flight Team, and I wanted the chain to possibly use with Ghostrider or something... Maybe the upcoming Lobo figure, IF I can even find one...) Keep up the awesome, it's GOOD having you back at it again, and I appreciate that you pretty much ALWAYS take the time to converse with me.
Agreed, this is the most badass version of Bobby ever. Dude looks like a villain.
Lol yeah. He would be a strong villain if he was.
Huh. I thought this version of Bobby died a villian. Killed by AoA Nightcrawler if i remember correctly.
@@NinJa-qr1sp oh yeah, he was but not during this run in the 90’s. It was the more modern AOA comics run you’re thinking of, I believe.
@@Xmanny87 correct. He was one of the only X-men in the AoA timeline to survive & remain in that timeline. In the Uncanny X-force series by Remender he later betrayed his friends & sided with the Dark Beast. Nightcrawler took him out. That was a great series.
Iceman is my favorite mutant and AoA is my favorite version as well.
I lazily dry brushed white over mine and it really shows just how amazing this new sculpt really is.
Yeah, it definitely would’ve been highlighted more with some extra airbrushing.
My favorite marvel legends figure
Nice figure with no ice effect so am gonna get blue marvel and use his effect for now.
I’m gonna end up having to get all of these figures based off of only these reviews!
That’s awesome man. Glad you’re enjoying my content to the point where you get the figures and enjoy them as much as I am.
This is the best version of iceman and hasbro did a great job on it!! Love hoe this figure turned out. I agree they need to make ice effects or a better slide effect for him. Enjoyed the extra pics at the end and great review bro!!
Highly agree man. It always makes me happy to hear when people enjoy my photos and videos. I put a lot of hard work and effort into them.
I'm using the ice slide from the last Toy Biz Iceman. It fits pretty well if you position it right.
Manny doin it again! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
LETS GOOOOOOO
Respectfully, for it’s time the 1995 Iceman is pretty awesome
Toybiz were always ahead of it’s time.
@@Xmanny87 Would you consider reviewing vintage figures? 90’s and such?
The ice slide one or Iceman II with the armor? I like them both.
@@benjaminwiseman6567 this one is definitely…well…cool. But I got a spot in my heart for that one.
That was one of my absolute favourites back then.
I always liked this look for ice man
This is a ‘cool’ looking figure!!! And a powered down Bobby Drake in his X Men uniform would be nice for my X Men TAS figures!
Absolutely. I’m hoping it’ll be made soon.
I got this figure last year!!! So awesome, perhaps the best version of Iceman!!!! Only, I’m makin’ my own X-Men story and I have this form when he’s been brainwashed by someone very ‘sinister’!
7:06 😄 bruh
Pinless joints would've taken this figure beyond 10, hoping to get him soon!
This is definitely the best look for ice man. Pretty dope figure. Ice effects are much needed for the legends line
This the best one out there 💯❤️
Damn, these reviews are coming in fast, keep em coming!
Really? I feel like I’m slow with these since I have such a busy schedule. I’m trying though.
@@Xmanny87 trust me man, for the amount of effort you put into your reviews, I am amazed at the speed at which they are coming out. Keep up the good work Manny.
A "chilling" review, Manny. AOA Iceman looks "cool"(sorry for the puns). 💯% agree this the best Iceman so far. I hope we do get a Bobby Drake as well.
Puns are always allowed here. Lol. Thank you for tuning in.
Great pics. Really dig the icicle Reaver. Nice!
Thank you so much!
Man, I’ve been waiting for this review of yours! I just got mine yesterday and upon seeing this I immediately had to check the paint app. Luckily I got the better one.😅 ACBA photos at the end are so COOL(no pun intended)!!!
YES!!! Glad you got the good one. And no worries, puns are always allowed on the channel lol. Glad you enjoyed the photos and video.
This is the only AoA figure I really needed and easily my favorite across both waves. Great review!
Thank you so much. Hope you get your figure soon so you can enjoy how great it is.
@@Xmanny87 Thanks! I got him this week. He lived up to my expectations and then some. I have him posed on the ice slide from the Toy Biz X-Men Iceman.
Good thing that they gave him a new body mold
I had that same Iceman growing up as well. That thing was jacked.
Hell yeah it was. It was a beast.
Thanks for the shout about Rogue in the video! 🙋🏻♂️
You got it my man!
I use the Iceman Sentinel base in a lot of my setups and ive been preaching for a deluxe Iceman with a modular ice slide and effects
That is something that would be awesome. I still used that Sentinel base too for my iceman on my display.
I’ve waited for this figure forever and it is top 5 marvel legend for me now
Awesome 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
As cool as he looks the clear plastic scares the literal Shit out of me for fear it will break other than that he looks amazing
I don’t have that fear as I mentioned in the video where it feels so much stronger and durable. But I understand where you are coming from.
@@Xmanny87 okay I’ll take your word for it
This looks awesome I just ordered mine after watching this video. I only wish the would of had added the butterfly joints. All in all great review! 🔥
I wish he had them too but I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
I love his head part. The spikes look sick
Right?! It’s so sick!
@@Xmanny87 the fig is COOL
@@Xmanny87 see what i did there
The best Ice-man (in comics) is when he was possessed by Emma Frost.
That’s a good one.
Is morph in the 616 universe or just AOA & the 90s cartoon? Is he on krakoa?
This and Kitty are the ones I'm least excited for but the pure joy this figure gave you made me appreciate it a lil more now, I only thing about this ice man is his size, I thought once he maxed out he was bigger in the comics but like you said its different when you have him in hand, I'm hoping for a AOA Bishop, nightcrawler, and obviously the cajun, but we need more villains tho, and AOA has a bunch still so who do you think will be next?

Gah! Yeah I threw away the boxes for space reasons. Didn’t know that so thanks for the tip and I’ll be on the lookout next time.

So I went back and looked at this iceman you are not tripping they are different
That is so weird that these are so different from each other. Can you see the differences while they are in package before you open?
I hope I get the good one. Great review.
Couldn’t really make out the difference in package. I noticed it out of the box right away.
@@Xmanny87 I got mine and I was worried until I had it under the light. I could see the flecks.
Awesome review👍🏿, from what Mortal Combat line does the ice effects come with?
Thank you. It comes from the Storm Collectibles one.
@@Xmanny87 thank you 👍🏿
Were those Storm Collectibles SubZero accessories on the pictures?
Yup
Great looking figure. The new bulkier torso looks great. The frosty effect makes it pop.
Only slight gripe is the blue is maybe a shade dark. Looks a little bit deep water rather than ice cold.
I can't wait to get this wave. IMO he is my least desired as I've been using the Jugg wave as my AoA Iceman and I still feel Hasbro has not given us a great Iceman. The sculpt looks spot on but he seems way too blue.
I honestly like that he’s so blue as it reminds me of the Toybiz AOA Iceman figure I had when I was a kid.
New collection tour coming soon????? Please
I don’t think that’s coming soon. I got way too much on my plate to find time to do that. But, I do want to do one.
Nah man you’re not Trippin on camera it looks like a lighter blue on one of them
in toy form....yeah this looks great....not the best look of ice man in my opinion though.
I Def have a different mold
Really? 🤔🤔🤔
For the price it should be with special effects, they are making them cheaper for higher prices 😡
I Want Ulatimate Iceman Figure
Oooooo That would be really cool.
I really like the body sculpt but I hate how his hair looks like a porky pine and he's too blue
Unless Hasbro re-release the retro Iceman and make his color like this AOA Iceman, I would also say that this is the best looking Iceman figure there is.
9:19
Did you just call Nemesis “Holocaust BAF”? Why?
That’s one of his names in the comics
That’s his name from the comics. I’m just used to calling him that more than Nemesis.
I thought you quit UA-cam?
No. I just needed to step away and focus on my mental health. Didn’t know for how long as I didn’t want to put a time stamp on it but wanted to come back when I felt right. No matter how long it took.
