Bride of Frankenstein & Monster Set

Celebrating seventy years since the film's release, Frankenstein's monster rises once again and lumbers forth from the dark depths of the Sideshow Collectibles laboratory. Based on Boris Karloff's version in The Bride of Frankenstein, the "Monster" is painstakingly hand-crafted, cast in the highest quality polystone and accurate down to the most intricate of details, from the wrinkles on his massive brow and hands, to the scarring along the side of his face. He is dressed in a tailored fabric costume, and stands atop a sturdy cobblestone textured base. .

Since Frankenstein’s monster first lumbered to life, audiences have been riveted for another glimpse of his horrific face. Boris Karloff left audiences in awe once again, returning to the character in a stellar performance as the undead, patchwork monster in Bride of Frankenstein, released by Universal Pictures in 1935. Appearing in the film opposite Elsa Lanchester as his bride, the Bride of Frankenstein role further elevated Karloff in the cannon of film icons and in the realm of classic monsters.

Longing for a counterpart in a world full of humans, the lonely monster asks his maker for a companion. The doctor begins his work, assembling body parts once again. This time, his creation is female, and stunning in her completed state, she becomes the monster’s beloved bride.

On April 22nd, 1935 James Whale’s immortal masterwork, The Bride of Frankenstein, thrilled and terrified horror fans and innocent theatergoers for the very first time. Though the monster’s mate and title character, played by Elsa Lanchester, had less than five minutes of screen time, her look was so iconic, and her impact so great, that she instantly became one of classic horror’s most recognizable characters.

The Bride of Frankenstein, with her trademark lightning streaked hair, was immediately embraced as a beloved silver screen legend.

The artists at Sideshow Collectibles have lovingly brought new life to the silver screen siren as a Format figure. Dressed in a flowing cloth shroud, the Bride Format Figure was designed to capture the tragic creature as both the beautiful and grotesque that she respresents. Her delicate but unsettling beauty has been reproduced in every detail, from the bandages covering her patchwork female form to the locks of her boldly shocked hair. The body of the figure is cast in high quality polystone, and the entire figure is hand-painted to exacting standards. Complete with an environmental display base, the Bride of Frankenstein Format figure is ready to your horror collection!
