Product Description
This limited-edition bundle contains both the One:12 Collective Frankenstein figure and the One:12 Collective Frankenstein Doorway Environment.
One of the most iconic images of 1931’s Frankenstein is the monster standing in the open doorway of the lab. A wall of rough-hewn stones and a studded wooden door in the background ominously frames the Monster.
The One:12 Collective Frankenstein Doorway Environment bundle perfectly recreates not only the look but the feel of the scene as though it were a movie set. This unprecedented environment comes complete with The One:12 Collective Frankenstein.
The display environment is created of polystone and features a functional door, floor, and stone wall. Behind the door, a cardstock backdrop creates the illusion of depth. The set includes a period-accurate trunk. The environment assembles easily using embedded magnets to ensure a secure fit.
The One:12 Collective Frankenstein is meticulously developed to capture the terrifying look of the iconic creature and outfitted on a One:12 Collective body, the figure’s detailing is incredible; the final product captures the look and spirit of the character as he appeared in the legendary film.
