Caliban (Ringdoll Frankenstein v. 1)

Face-up artist(s):

Ringdoll

Body blushing artist(s):

Ringdoll

Date of acquisition:

Arrived: May 23, 2012

Provenance:

Purchased by me directly from Ringdoll. Box, CoA, fullset.

Reason for choice:

I'm not a fan of gore, but of dark, gothic horror, sure! And this version of Frankenstein's Monster is very gothic and romantic, which I love. He has such a melancholy expression!

Best Points:

Just love everything about him--style-wise! Sculpt, clothing, etc.

Worst Points:

Lots of blushing, and easily scraped at joints. Just taking him out of the box, his chest-joint shifted and scratched the blushing!
