Dr. Frankenstein (Original) Custom Action Figure
Custom #:2473
Name:Dr. Frankenstein
Custom Type:Action Figure
Toy Series:Original
Creator:Maelstrom  
Date Added:April 29, 2007
Base Figure:Justice series Brainiac
Height:7.25 inches
Here is about the easiest custom I have ever done or will ever do. I took a JUSTICE series Brainiac and swiped heads with a Special Forces WWII German soldier figure, added goggles and painted the hair dark brown. This is really just a little teaser to the unveiling of the Frankenstein Monster that I have been constructing for the "Zombies Alive" contest. However, due to extenuating circumstances, I have to leave town without having finished it and making the contest deadline. Background is just some stuff from various playsets. Good luck to all who are participating in the contest, I'm really looking forward to viewing all of the entries. Stay tuned, the "Monster" in progress is much more complex than anything I have done in the past. The good doctor here was really just an afterthought that I did yesterday. It took all of like 30 minutes to do. Still, I will probably do some fine tuning on it before I present the "Modern Prometheus" (that's the subtitle from Mary Shelly's original novel "Frankenstein."

Were you ever able to finish the monster? I'd really like to see it.

Thanks for all of the comments, Unfortunately I had to leave town and was unable to finish "Frankenstein's Monster," hence the abscense of my entry. I am back now, but it may be a while before I unveil it. I could have possibly finished it in time, but I would rather make this custom as good as I can than to do a second rate rush job...and believe me, this ol' Frankie I'm workin' on ain't some 30 minute chop job! By the way, the first thing I did when I got back into town was to check out the "Zombies Alive" entries, GREAT WORK EVERYONE! There is some high quality work goin' on there...I like the really gross ones the best!

You Bugger Maelstrom
You put this together in like 30 minutes but everything looks so darn spiffy and the choice of putting a sepia tone on the pic just adds to the quality
Man this is something else - really really cool
And if your Frankenstein Monster is better than this - dude it'll be an honor to lose the contest to it
Man....Could you email me with wher I can buy these german figures?
They might have the Nazi caps I'm looking for to use on the kroenen I'm making

If your Modern Prometeus looks as good as the Doc I know who´s going to win the contest.
Great idea to take a b&w pic.
Good luck in the contest!
