BOYCOTT RESIN FIGURE BY ABELL OCTOVAN

Came across this figure a while back ago, BoyCott by Abell Octovan. Standing at 7 inches tall, this resin figure will be produced in limited quantity.

If not mistaken, there will be two different colorway of this figure, black on black and the red on black. Not quite sure though... Personally, I love the packaging. The way the red silk fabric sits on the box to wrapped around the figure along with the alternative fists makes it look so elegant.

To view more pictures on this figure, check out Abell's BoyCott PHOTO ALBUM.
