'''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]]. | '''George Ice Cube''' is a minor character in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie series]]''.

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. | George lives contently on the Icy Side of [[Hailfire Peaks]] with his wife [[Mildred Ice Cube|Mildred]] right beside [[Boggy's Igloo]].

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). | Crude, blocky ice sculptures of George and Mildred appear in [[Banjoland]] as important elements in the mission "Ice To See You".

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. | 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. | ||
