Astor City Scientist

The Astor City Scientist is a desirable minifigure for collectors of the Ultra Agents theme, especially those focusing on the villains and supporting characters. Its unique hazard suit and dual-printed head add to its appeal. The distinctive Astor City 'AC' print on the torso also makes it easily identifiable and a must-have for completing the Ultra Agents collection.

The minifigure's design is well-executed, with attention to detail in the printing and the use of specialized parts like the hazard suit mask. The scared expression on one side of the head is a fun detail that adds character. Mint condition figures, particularly with undamaged printing on the torso and mask, are most sought after.

The Astor City Scientist is relatively rare due to its exclusive appearance in only one set, Toxikita's Toxic Meltdown (70163-1). This set was retired in 2014, making the minifigure less accessible on the primary market. While not a limited edition, its single set appearance has contributed to its scarcity on the aftermarket. Availability can vary, but it's not as common as minifigures that appear in multiple sets or have been re-released in newer waves.
