'''George Ice Cube''' is a | '''George Ice Cube''' is a minor character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie series]]''. He appeared in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' and then made a cameo later on in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'' as an ice-sculpture. He is a giant but friendly [[Chinker]] who is prone to terrible (and usually near-death) accidents. He is usually seen in conjunction with his beloved wife, [[Mildred Ice Cube]]. | ||

[[Image:George Ice Cube.jpg|thumb|125px|left|George Ice Cube, forlornly looking off into the distance in [[Cloud Cuckooland]].]] | |||
George lives contently on the Icy Side of [[Hailfire Peaks]] with his wife [[Mildred Ice Cube|Mildred]] right beside [[Boggy's Igloo]]. However, he was recently caught in a surprise windstorm and whisked off [[Isle o' Hags]] and away to [[Cloud Cuckooland]], where he has been ever since. Luckily, he comes to the conclusion that the place he landed is right above Hailfire Peaks, so he asks [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] to give him a gentle push down so he can be with Mildred once more. | |||
Unfortunately, his judgment was slightly off in the sense he was actually above the ''Fire Side'' of Hailfire Peaks rather than the Icy Side, so he plunges to his untimely death. He ends up landing in a pool of scalding hot water, where he meets his horrific end. Fortunately for Banjo and Kazooie though, this makes the water cooler, allowing them to empty it into [[Piggles]]' and [[Trotty]]'s pool in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], who reward them with a [[Jiggy]] for doing so. This chain of events also uncovers a [[Flight Pad]] in Cloud Cuckooland which, prior to his demise, George was unintentionally blocking. | |||

As he melts, George asks the duo to tell his wife that he loves her, but he is unable to finish his sentence. | |||
Earlier in the game, his wife Mildred also suffers a similar fate caused by Banjo and Kazooie. | |||

Crude, blocky ice sculptures of George and Mildred appear in [[Banjoland]] as important elements in the mission "Ice To See You". While it is left rather ambiguous if they are actually George and Mildred, revived and reformed by [[L.O.G.]], or if they are simply just replicas like the majority of the museum, they undoubtedly bear little resemblance to the their ''Banjo-Tooie'' counterparts, and are dressed in frozen hats and clothing (George also has what appears to be a mustache). | |||
In the mission they star in, [[Bottles]] regretfully reveals that George has slipped down to the [[Gobi's Valley]] display, and will melt soon as he pines away from loneliness. The mission involves bringing the sculpture of George back to the Sculpture of Mildred, which is back on top of the [[Freezeezy Peak]] area. | |||
In addition, an even smaller model of George can be seen perched up on a ledge on the Cloud Cuckooland exhibit, a reference to his role in the previous game. | |||
