Features Iceman in his classic ice form, with an included reprint of Marvel Tales #229 comic

Iceman, also known as Bobby Drake, is one of the founding members of the X-Men and one of Marvel Comics' earliest mutants. He debuted in X-Men #1 back in 1963 and is gifted with cryokinetic abilities, allowing him to lower temperatures, generate ice constructs, freeze objects, and even transform his entire body into organic ice. This makes Iceman one of the most powerful Omega-level mutants in the Marvel Universe, and McFarlane Toys is bringing him to their Marvel Collection. Marvel Tales Vol. 2 #229 is a reprint issue featuring several stories, headlined by "My Friend, My Foe!". This classic tale was from Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider‑Man #18 and featured Spider-Man, Angel, and Iceman, with Bobby being front and center on the cover.

This cover now comes to life with a new Target Exclusive 1/6 scale Marvel statue from McFarlane Toys. It appears two versions will be offered, with a standard and Gold Label Autograph (which is the Target Exclusive). Both will come with a reprint of Marvel Tales #229, showing off Bobby in his whole body ice design as he uses his powers. The Autograph version gets a signed art card from Todd McFarlane himself, which is always a treat. Pre-orders are already live on Target for $79.99, and Iceman is set to slide in on December 1, 2026.
