X-Mas Snowman and Jack Frost

After seeing McFarlane Toys X-Mas figures the Christmas holiday season will never be the same.

Of the figure set, two are my favorites: Jack Frost and Snowman.

Trust me when I say you’ve never seen figures quite like these.  They’re not exactly examples of holiday sheer!

I’m not sure how McFarlane Toys sculptors and toy manufacturers pulled it off but both the Snowman and Jack Frost look to made from translucent ice with snow highlights.

In some parts they can be seen through--icicles and all.

If I was a kid and I came across McFarlane Toys Snowman in full scale I would immediately wet myself, scream “Mommy!” and scurry on home, run to my room, hide under the covers and never show my face again.

Yeah--it’s that scary!

This frozen, frosty monstrosity sports six (count ‘em) six gnarly tree branch arms with long tapered and sharp fingers on each hand.

Split into three sections (head, torso and hips-just like a traditional snowman) the Snowman figure leans slightly forward with its six limbs flailing about with its six clawed hands ready to pounce and grab any unsuspecting holiday reveler.

The Snowman wears a tattered and wrinkled black top hat with red headband.

Its face features two dark as the depths of hell coal eyes, a long, bent carrot nose and a large gaping mouth with rows and rows of jagged ice teeth.

The figure is poised on a slab of snow/ice with several Christmas bulb decorations strew about.

Let’s hope, just like the Legendary Frosty The Snowman, that this Snowman melts to nothing, come spring.  It’s a chiller thriller!

The Jack Frost figure is a biiiig boy!  Judging by the small village, with windmill at his feet, Jack Frost is neighboring on 1,000 feet tall!

Like the Snowman Jack Frost has lots of wood intermingled with his ice and snow body.  Large trees protrude out his back and much of his head and jaws are made from tree trunks and large trees.

His bright red eyes appear as crimson slits under his heavy ice brow.

His gigantic maw has large icicle teeth jutting from its roof and lower jaw.

Jack Frost stands with his giant legs spread apart and bent at the knees.  Icicles hang down from all over his body.

His hands hold a gigantic tree trunk as he prepares to wreak havoc.

His giant wooden feet have gnarly toes ending in sharp edges and his left foot has obliterated half of the small village below the figure.

The base consists of the village on a snowy hill and ice mountain.

What makes this figure especially impressive is the intermingling of transparent and translucent plastic with solid pieces of brown plastic signifying trees.

This is one of the most impressive Mcfarlane Toys figures I’ve ever seen.  An amazing sculpt, incredible color application and astounding attention to detail (as with Snowman figure) make this an incredible figure to own.
