A bit more work on Sunday morning and Frankenstein’s monster is done.
The colouring is unconventional. The instructions call for black or dark brown for the jacket and pants. A pre-painted figure, approved by Universal, in a slightly smaller scaled, appeared a few years ago with a colour scheme similar to this one. It works.
The figure is stock, from the box with one exception. The one hand that is turned incorrectly is fixed to imitate the original pose. Here’s a publicity still from the 1931 movie just to give you an idea of where the pose came from.
