We construct the general local solutions to complexified Type IIB supergravity which are invariant under the complexified Lie superalgebra $F(4)$. The geometry is a product of complexified maximally symmetric spaces $\mathcal M_{6 {\mathbb C}}$ and $\mathcal M_{2 {\mathbb C}}$ warped over a complexified surface $\Sigma_{\mathbb C}$. We classify the reality conditions that may be imposed consistently to obtain real form solutions within real forms of complex Type IIB supergravity. The latter comprise standard Type IIB, Type IIB$^\star$ and IIB$^\prime$, as well as theories with $3$, $5$, $7$ and $9$ time-like directions. Our classification of real solutions is consistent with and exhausts the real forms of $F(4)$, whose classification we confirm by elementary methods. The geometry of each real form solution is a product of real maximally symmetric spaces $\mathcal M_6$ and $\mathcal M_2$ warped over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$, with various signatures. The real solutions include, among others, known $AdS_6 \times S^2 \times \Sigma$ and $AdS_2 \times S^6 \times \Sigma$ solutions to standard Type IIB as well as new solutions of the form $dS_{1,5}\times S^2 \times \Sigma$ in Type IIB$^\star$. There are no real forms of the complex solutions with $\mathfrak{so} (7;{\mathbb R}) \oplus \mathfrak{so} (3;{\mathbb R})$ symmetry. We discuss the relevance of the complex solutions, and of analytic continuations from $dS_{1,5}\times S^2\times\Sigma$ to $S^6\times S^2\times\Sigma$ within complex Type IIB, in connection with holography for the polarized IKKT model.
