Next Figure from the Wave 3 of the DC Retro action line is non other then Flash's arch enemy, Captain Cold. Honestly, Captain Cold is my personal favourite from the whole set. Read on.....
Unlike the other figures, Captain Cold suit isn't spandex, too my surprise, it was another unearthy kinda material, now that's attention to detail, Mattel really did this one right.
Besides the obvious, the boots, holster and Freeze gun was done just nice too, instead of updated versions, retro action version of Captain Cold is well retro too, instead of a grey freeze gun or belt/holster, they were done in the retro yellow coloured belt/holster and a magenta coloured freeze gun.
The head-sculpt is great, I just love the smirk on his face, capturing the classic villain and the details on the suit is just perfect. This is one figure that really hit my superhero...erm..super-villain gspot.
If the other figures from this wave didn't do much justice to the characters, Captain Cold sure did, Mattel nailed it! Though I was actually more eager awaiting Flash and wonderwoman to form some Justice team and have a superhero battle royal, right now, I guess its gonna be a rogue's gallery with the top villains thrashing the superheroes, ok, Im just kidding, back to the point, Captain Cold is one of the figures from the wave that is highly recommended.
