We have the Power!
Solid episode. I didn't remember Icer too well but I like him. He is a kickass evil warrior. He doesn't seem like a moron like Beast Man and Trap Jaw and he has some wicked ice powers.
Pretty good episode.
Dammit Disney no one asked for another Ice Age movie
Question: Is there any evidence that Icer was meant to be a figure in the OG toyline but was cancelled? Because he's set up as one of Skeletor's usual minions. Or was he maybe reworked into a different character like with Lizard Man and Whiplash? I mean there are no Ice power characters in the OG toyline. I know he eventually got a Classics figure.
Speaking of which, I've noticed Whiplash becoming more prominent these past few episodes. Just asking who do y'all hypothetically consider the sometimes seventh member to Skel's main crew more, Clawful or Whiplash?
I'm now wondering if 'Lash makes more appearances in the show than Tri-Klops? That would be insane.

I think so. Do you know @battlecat327
@samuel great question- Whiplash is actually tied with Tri-Klops at 10 each! Biggest difference though is most of Whiplash’s appearances have a lot of meat on them, where Tri-Klops is almost exclusively a background/secondary character. Even more impressive is Whiplash tied Tri-Klops in half the time! It also helps that Whiplash has two episodes where he’s the standalone villain (like today with “Trouble in Trolla”
@samuel I actually missed the part of Clawful, Clawful shows up seven times, tied with Kobra Khan. I also misspoke slightly on Whiplash/Tri-Klops. They're actually tied at eleven, if you count Tri-Klops appearance in She-Ra. I'm also not counting Whiplash in the Toy Maker, because it's a 2 second non-speaking cameo.
@battlecat327 Thanks for the information. I remember Beast Man had more appearances in the beginning of the season 1. I consider Whiplash the Beast Man of season 2.
Four stars. Great ep. Forgot how prominent whiplash is. For some reason I think of season 2 as being pretty weak but this has been a great run of episodes for a while now. I certainly is a top tier villan.
