I got my B&W white version and wow, I'm glad I trusted my gut and waited for this variant. It's an amazing sculpt and the pose is perfect. I feel like the variant also allowed for them to incorporate more of a icy/snow paint job paint job on the figure compared to the regular. I think the scale is fine since there is no universal height given to the Frankenstein Monster, but I do wish he was slightly bigger. He is big enough to fit in with a lot of 1/4 pieces.
Overall, I'd give this piece a 9/10. My small nit picks would be I wish he was a little bigger just because he is a "Monster" after all. I also wish there wasn't a neck seam. If there is no switch outs, then just make it seamless. I do think they missed a great chance to give this a true Wrightson switch out sculpt that had long hair. That would have been dope. The lantern is cool, but if you're going to add light ups to this, why not make those back electrodes flicker, too?
