Paraphrased from Whoclix:  We’re actually not too sure which Killer Frost this figure represents.  The first KF was Crystal Frost, Dr. Martin Stein’s girlfriend.  What?  You don’t know who Martin Stein is?  Shame on you…he’s the other half of the original Firestorm!  Anyway an accident removed all warmth from her body, and gave her the ability to control ice and cold.  The second KF was Dr. Frost’s assistant who replicated the accident that gave her boss her powers. 

 

First and foremost, this is one of the nicest sculpts of any Heroclix in my opinion.  I LOVE what they do with the clear plastic, it really brings out the details of the sculpts, and of course, there’s no need for messy paint applications.  I guess the nice thing about this figure is that it’s also an REV and it’s an easy REV to collect, so you should have no problem pulling one.  That’s also the bad part, because look at the pricing review below!

 

The figure isn’t much to write home about though.  The SS TA isn’t fantastic, as I mentioned yesterday, and this piece doesn’t have high enough stats to warrant the cost.  So basically you have a pretty collection piece, and not much more.  I suppose if you needed the SS TA for a wild-card you could waste 54 points for the Experienced version…but I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t just go with Deadshot instead.

 

And now…

Pricing Commentary – REV sets that don’t include a rare figure often times get lost in the dust of the frenzy to collect Rares and Uniques.  Unfortunately for this brilliant sculpt, this figure is no exception.  If you pay more than a couple bucks for this REV set, you’re getting ripped off.

 

 

My Ratings Playability, then Collectability
