* A surprisingly good anime-only episode of ''[[Ranma ½ (Manga)|Ranma 1/2]]'' had both an uncontrollable snowlem and a friendly, but confused yuki-onna show up to cover the entire town in a blizzard. As it was made entirely of snow, it could regenerate any damage insantly. Its [[Achilles Heel|only weakness]] was [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|the red gem it used as an]] "[[Go for The Eye|eye]]" --which, conveniently enough, was very vulnerable to Ryouga's Breaking Point technique. It still didn't stop until the yuki-onna used her flute to calm the monster down, at which point the eye became blue.
** In his introduction to the story, [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|Principal]] [[Cloudcuckoolander|Kuno]] disguised himself [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment|as a living, Engrish-speaking snowman for some unfathomable reason]] and went around trying to trim his students' hair.

** And they ''laughed'' at you the whole time. Jerks.
* A [[You Mean "Xmas"|Wintersday]] quest in ''[[Guild Wars]]'' features characters chasing down familiar-sounding ingredients (button, two pieces of coal, corncob pipe, magic hat) to make Freezie, the Greatest Snowman Ever Made. Freezie and other snowmen (which look like [http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Ice_Elemental Ice Elementals] wigh a snowman head stuck on the front]]) also show up in other Wintersday quests, and populate the Secret Lair of the Snowmen dungeon in ''Eye of the North''. For the children!
* One of the unlockable skins in some of the ''[[Ratchet and Clank]]'' games is that of a snowman. A Snowlem with a [[BFG]]. You may quake in fear now.
* Various 'Winter Events' in ''[[City of Heroes]]'' have involved menacing Type III Snowlems of varrying sizes - including towering 'Giant Monster' versions that requires several entire TEAMS of Superheroes to defeat.
