Description
Mr. Freeze: Think of it Batman. To never again walk upon a summer's day with a hot wind in your face and a warm hand to hold. Oh yes, I'd kill for that.When I was a little kid I had the Mr. Freeze action figure made by Toy Biz as part of their DC Superpowers line. Each figure had an action gimmick and Mr. Freeze would change color in the cold. Needless to say I spent a lot of time putting him in our freezer to guard my popsicles.
After I grew up I realized that the figure I loved was quite possibly the worst version of Mr. Freeze ever.
His armor was colored red, white, blue and light purple and the box art on the original figure made him look more like an enraged baby that sneezed on his hands instead of the tragic and emotionless character he really was.So I went back and looked at the box art and redrew it and then recolored the armored suit with light effects, textures and colors based on his comic book and animated series incarnations. So now Victor Fries stands in his sub zero hideout looking at his hands and grimly knowing he will never know the touch of human warmth ever again.
Doctor Victor Fries, Mr. Freeze copyright DC Comics.

I used the actual toy and toy box art to get the pose and armor detail.
The actual toy and package art makes him look more like this

Aww cool.
They get cheapy japanese to mae the artwork, which makes them look jolly and anime rather then there actual selves.
that was such a bid fail making him red like that

It's actually considered one of the greatest and goofiest toylines on the planet. DC Superpowers did tons of characters but they would always do one with an off design or action feature. Their Lex Luthor figure was voted one of the worst action figures ever made because he had a retarded look on his face and is action punch feature wasn't made properly so he would actually punch himself in the side of the head.
Here is a pic of the original Mr Freeze package and toy. [link]

Oh lol, that's really bad. I can imagine their toyline did not last long?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No the toyline lasted very long. For every crap one they made there were like a dozen great ones. The same company did Marvel Comics characters at the same time and almost all of them were great.I still have quite a few from when I was a kid.

oh well if the odds are that small they should make a two headed batman doll
They'll never go out of bussiness, but why would they have a crappy line of a certain character?

The Toy Biz line was about volume and not quality most times so every now and then they would have a clunker. Producing two comic universe giants at the same time with that many characters to play with is pretty much unheard of today.
They would always pick a main character like Batman or Spider-man and then make variations of them. Like Hang Glider batman or Battle Damage spidey or Wolverine in all his different costumes and shit like that and those would be in each assortment released.
So you would always get a different version of a main character along with all the new ones in each new assortment. The main characters almost always sold because of the character's popularity even if their concept was crappy so they could afford to experiment with other things on other characters like giving them power punches, color changing paint or light up eyes.
They also had a toy that was puleld from the shelves and I wish I had kept mine in good shape. They made a talking Venom figure that said " Die Spider-Man! I want to eat your brains! and Hissssssss!" The Eating your brains line got them into trouble with parents here

Yeah I suppose considering other business' are like that with other products, it's probably just a way to slow down the production, if they use up all their ideas at once they're screwed.
Oh yeah of course ones like that sell all the time, some of them looked terrible on Tv but they were different so they sold.
One of the companies should bring out a stupid batman toy whose eyes would shoot out and puke
I get it now, It looks like a good way to get feedback to decide on future toys and blah.
What! oh come on, what did parents expect venom to say 'you're a meanie spidey' that is nothing.
It was worth a try for the company, sadly it didn't last long

Every toyline practices that though. They will always take a main hero and villain and make different versions of them. It's part of the charm of the toy line itself. No matter what you will get the main antagonists in some form or another.
Toy Biz was really well off and then Marvel bought them outright. So now their toys are higher quality.
Yeah it was funny which toys they would cause a fuss over. I mean I had two of the voice box toys and they were fun. The Venom ones always had some kind of controversy. Either his voice would cause problems or people bitched about the one that shot black slime out of his chest because it stained everything
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
there will be different forms, it's silly ones like if they gave batman a green costume or made him look like a ken doll changes
It's a pain at times because one uptight parent will make a statement and then many more will join the cause.
Ha! that is a cool toy, anything that shoots goo is a must buy
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah like they would have a bright orange and yellow Batman and call him Heat Shield Batman and he was all geared up to fight Firefly. Or Scuba Attack Spider-Man that was in a special blue and green costume with giant web cannons and flippers so he could attack Doctor Octopus' underwater lair.
I usually went for the original costume or the Battle Damage ones.
Yeah it gets bad over here with that shit. Like GTA3 started up a shit storm because parents found out if you put in the Hot Coffee mod you could see digital boobies and characters had sex. They all shut up once a rating system was put on the games.
He was awesome, I still have that Venom and the talking Venom somewhere though I lost talking venom's voice box backpack.
I love the old gimmic of having slime with toys it just made it fun. That's why the Evil Hoarde Slime Pit and The Real Ghostbusters were awesome, you could just buy cans of slime at the store and have fun sliming characters. Also the green slime was great for stripping paint of of Hot Wheels cars so I could repaint them

Disco hulk with groove action!!
If the toymakers are willing to ignore the actual creators and design it themselves then we'll be seeing these shortly
OH FUCK!!
Awww it's ok, I think most of us as kids HAVE to find the part that's talk and take it out
Everyone's loves SLIME!! slime made your playtime so much betterm but that was some strong stuff to strip paint off the cars.
I always went for toys like that, but after a few years my mom stopped buying me refills because I would put slime in my pockets and take it to school
I was only about 5 6 doing this stuff

They pretty much do that now with any successful toyline. They still do tjhe alternate costumes for all the Spider-Man toys. GI Joe has done that as well for decades. if you go on www.yojoe.com and search the toy archive for Duke, Cobra Commander or SnakeEyes you'll see they had like 8 or 9 versions of them.
Grand Theft Auto was the game that sort of started the whole game rating system here. Same with Resident Evil and a few others. Parents would buy them expecting a normal game and then you'd see people being shot and eaten and crazy amounts of blood and gore. 
I looked online once to see if I could make that kind of slime from the old days and I would actually have to buy the ingredients from an industrial chemical warehouse. If you do a google search for slime recipies they tell you how to make several kinds.
I was the same way with some of the toys as a kid. When I was little they had these things called MAD Scientist kits. One of them was this stuff called "Living Ice" Basiaclly it was a clear or colored substance that used your body heat to become soft and liquidy like slime and if you put it in a mold it would turn to clear rubber like gelatin. I got that shit all over the house
They also had a Monster Maker Kit. They gave you skeletons you could build over with this green flesh compound and add in eyes, organs and all sorts of crap and when you got done, you dropped it in the monster melter tank "which was water" and the skin would fizzle and dissolve off the bones.
There was also a Terminator 2 Terminator factory that did the same thing except it came with this stuff you could mix into what looked liek real flesh and inject into a mold over the Terminator skeleton and have mini Arnolds that you could give battle damage to.

Atleast they aren't as bad as I thought they would be
lol, those games brought a whole new meaning to fun and violence, I think we just went along with whatever happened. Kids need to learn about this stuff, especially RE incase of a zombie apocalypse
If you do manage to make som, let me know how it went, I'll look right now! it's so simple, i'm going to try it.
lol! I bet your ass was sore for over a week, those were fun to mess with But the one you had sounds cool! I want one tooooo. We have similar sets called horrible science and others, the last one I had included bicarbonate of soda well I put fuck load in and stained the carpet
O that kicks ass, We need those kinds of toys back in our stores, to hell with these silly doll playsets.
lol Mini Arnolds, these toys allowed you to be as evil and insane as you want without being told off, unless you got in all over the place, which we both did with other gooey stuf

Nah they never got too out of hand with stuff except when it cam to the Cobra-La figures but they were unpopular so we didn't have to put up with them long.
I can understand a rating system since it usually keeps people from blaming the games for corrupting their kids unless they are total idiots.Still no matter what there are always groups here that think certain music, games or media are corrupting children. Fucking morons.
You can probably find most of the Mad Scientist kits on eBay though I don't know how long that stuff would last considering the age of them. Most of the stuff was powder mixes you added to water to make it. They also had a slime making lab but the slime looked more like clear outmeal than anything but it did glow in the dark.
The funny thing about the flesh compund from the Terminator toys was if you let it dry it would shrivel up and shrink. I made a Arnold and left it out for a week and watched it shrivel up into a deformed old man.

Oh
Of course, it's all the parent's fault not the company, they can't be that stupid to miss '18' on the game and buy it for a 5 year old. lol, well if they spent more time raising their kids properly rather then bitchng then their kids wont 'copy' shit, but that is a load of crap, those parent's can't expect evrything to be about happiesness and candy
( if anything a kid playing violent video games will know how to defend themself if they are being mugged
lol! that is so cool it taught what happens when you get old, IT'S EDUCAYSHUNAL
Oh and I made my own slime, it's the same redness of a pair of lungs, I found some soduim borate and went nuts, it is so thick and it leaves a red mark on things heheh I'll have to take a picture of it and put it on DA for the hell of it

Don't laugh, they have done crazy ones like that. The last He-Man toyline made "Rave" Skeletor in all neon glow colors and they have made Sea Attack Spider-Man where he has stuff to battle underwater enemies
I had a friend actually use playdoh to make a mold of his dick and he used that Terminator flesh compund to make a replica of it which he let dry out on a shelf and he was actually proud of it.
I only ever used that Mad Scientist kit to make my own and after a while it really started to smell bad even in tupperware containers so I ended up throwing it all out

(just to shorten this, i'mm going to combine these
But I want to laugh, oh hell LOL! Rave skelator, did he have glow sticks
A see-attack spider man, what the hell
Ohh that sucks, keeping it in the frige helps but depending wwhich goo, some of them harden in the fridge, one of mine did
So she asked you for another art trade depite her idiocy, yeah, that's not how it works, it's like getting a refund and paying for it twice.
that doesn't sounds like actual clay, more like that cheap crap!
That is fucking messed up, what an ungrateful bitch, she used you then blocked you! she wont get far, word will get round on DA eventaully, I've met some point whores they have 5 watcher in 2 years.
Spoilt fucker.

Toys varients are many and fucked up.
He actually kept it under his bead and when it dried it looked like a dried up mushroom. It was this among other things that made me stop being his friend. Fucking weirdo
It was cheap slime so no real loss. It wasn't like the cool industrial ones they used to make for Ninja Turtles, Ghostbusters and others.
Yes, she wasn't a rocket scientist to be sure. She once commented on a picture I did that she thought the glowing, purple see-through energon cube the transformer was holding looked like "a yummy cake". I mean really are there that many cakes that look like that in the UK?
Whatever it was the shit crumbled like a stale cookie just sitting on a shelf.
Yeah I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. She also made a request from me that I was working on when she blocked me so I threw it out. So more her loss than mine
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh so he That kind of person, I didn't believe he kept it for that long until I read your last message, that's quite disturbing.
The best goo has to be quite thick, the runny stuff sucks, there have been a few toys over here where the goo was too watery, some of them where like ketchup and dried within hours.
We don't have cakes like that.. at all! maybe some got one custom made to look like the cube but no, where the hell does she live
What a rip off.
crap like that happens, you just don't expect that on DA. definately it's her loss, I still can't believe someone would have the nerve to do that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah he got arrested for doing some bad shit and that ended the friendship immediately.
You sound like a goo expert
I don't know, she lives somewhere in the UK. So your closer to her than I ever will be
Well like I said with both these people it's no real loss in my life. The way I figure it with the one that blocked me, I got her out of my life for the price of a subscription. Some things are worth paying for.

Anytime they say Bat-something in the Joel Schumacher Batman movies and it isn't a weapon or vehicle it makes me cringe and look for a screw driver to plant firmly into my ear canals.
Like does he really have to say he has a bat wallet with his bat credit card which is next to his bat photos and his bat rubber that he hopes stops his bat sperm from making a bat baby.
It just killed me that Tim Burton went out of his way to make the movies unlike the 1960s Adam West show and treat it seriously and then Joel comes in and makes it Adam West times a billion.
