October 20: Nut King Call
Today's stand doesn't especially stand out as a design, HAHA, but it's not a bad one either. It's just...another doll-like humanoid, which by now feels like the common base template of a stand, though I like its thin limbs, and the nuts and bolts covering it are actually appropriate!
DESIGN RATING:
Nut King Call has the intriguing ability to create artificial joints wherever it implants one of its nuts. That is, it can inject one into a person's elbow and their elbow will suddenly be more like an action figure than a human.
This might seem pointless, except that removing the nut won't revert the victim back to normal, but just take the joint apart. It's a more circuitous but much more fun way to basically disember someone. Another, more famous and more important stand can do almost the same thing with zippers, but there's something I personally find more striking and unsettling about these nut-joints.
